Books?

I’m in between getting an ereader (kindle paperwhite) or just sticking with plain old books. I’m an avid reader and can go through books quite quickly. I love reading while at home and will always keep physical books on hand and continue to buy them for that purpose.

However, I also read a lot while not at home. To and from work while taking public transport, lunch breaks as well as when travelling. This is where an ereader seems like it would be a good option since I won’t have to lug around a couple of books and it’s easier to read

I already know I don’t want a tablet or just an app on my phone as the lighting makes it easy to strain eyes compared to an ereader display.

My question is, is spending money on an ereader a worthwhile investment? Does anyone have one that absolutely loves it and is glad they made the switch?
