However, I personally have owned both physical books and ebooks and I tend to enjoy reading more when I have a physical copy of the book. There are negatives to having an E-Reader such as the battery dying or having to strain your eyes to read it in extreme lighting situations. The physical copy does not have a time limit until its next charge and can be a much more immersive experience of buying the book in-person, which I greatly enjoy.
I hope this helps from another person's perspective!

I purchased my Kindle about a year and a half ago. I used to be a paper-only reader, but now I LOVE my Kindle! It's so nice to be able to take it anywhere because it is so compact and lightweight. I don't necessarily use the taking notes features but it sure does make reading easier for me.
It all really depends on personal preference. I think it is totally worth it!

I recommend e-readers to avid readers, especially if they find themselves distracted when they try to read on their phone (notifications, etc.) or other tablets.
