Teens: Do you prefer Nooks/Kindles or actual books?
I prefer books. The idea of sitting in bed with a hot tea and a good book is much more comforting to me than sitting in bed with a tablet, staring into a screen. Turning the crinkly, browned pages is nicer than pressing a button and I'd rather spend hours at the bookstore/library than downloading my books. When I heard Borders was closing down due to competition especially with virtual books like Nooks and Kindles, I was incredibly sad. WHAT HAS OUR SAD, CRUEL WORLD COME TO?!?!?!?!??? Ok, I'm overreacting. LOL. What is your opinion?

LOL I feel the same way and I'm a computer nerd!
Books are much easier to read then looking at a screen.
Kindles are VERY nice, but just not the same.
Real books will last forever. I know it.
i love reading, and browsing in bookstores, but i recently was given a kindle and at first i wasnt too sure, but now i love it as it fits inside my handbag and most books are a lot cheaper and i got the complete works of all of these classic authors (charles dickens, shakespeare, oscar wilde, the brontes, austen etc) for free as most old books are free on kindle
however, i still read "real" books a lot and i buy them still. however, ebooks are a LOT better for the environment as a tree doesn't have to be cut down to make them XD
I like books better. Well, I don't normally read book unless it's for school, I usually read comics and when I looked up my fave comic on my mom's kindle, it wan't in like.. comic form
