I 100% believe that paper books are much better than ebooks (you can't really call it a page-turner if you aren't turning pages ). I just love the feel of a good book in my hand and having to use a torch to read when there's no power (I live in Nigeria by the way).
However, even though I really love paper books (and I really love them), I currently depend heavily on ebooks. This is only because in Nigeria it's hard to find a good book store that sells the type of genre I read. Most of the books being sold are either motivational books, spiritual books..., basically nothing fun. So it's much easier for me to buy the book online and read it electronically.
Such is the sad tale of my life. Cursed to read ebooks.

But there's a vibe and easily found concentration that comes from reading a hardcover that you can't just get from an electronic format book.
So I would say, both have their merits.

I don't prefer ebook much because I don't want my eyes to be strained. I also get headache if I'm too exposed to my phone reading ebook.
