Main advantage of paper books is that in bright sunlight you can still easily read them and they do not require being charged.

Ebooks. Love having a library in my pocket on my mobile which I can read on larger displays as well. Walking / driving my mobile can read to me any book I like. I control the fonts and sizes. I can highlight terms for quick looks or notes. Full text search is easy inside the books. To quote or share passages from ebooks is easy.

Paper book vs ebook question is like question of typewriter vs word processor. If you are used to the older technologies you may be fond of them despite even because of their limitations simply because how they make you “feel”.
