One can carry these books comfortably in a pocket or a small bag whenever and wherever one wishes to read for pleasure or learning. The second significant development of e-reading is that it allows reading in all environments. For example, one does not need artificial light at night or in darkness because these are self-illuminating. Besides this, the font’s size, color, and style are adjustable/modifiable at the reader’s will as per his moods and can be switched from one to the other just with the click of a button.

While one can highlight the text in any color, one can also underline the lines of text and strike through the lines. Above all, the gadget remembers all this for our next reading. So, e-reading has proved easy, more attractive, engaging, and more comfortable than p-reading.
