    EReaders have helped this dramatically, I still struggle to sit down and actually read but I've cleared quite a few books so far this year. That may not sound impressive, but that's coming from a streak of no books fully read.

      Before I can legitimize an e-reader I have to finish the stacks of real books laying in piles on my shelves

        I stopped being able to read physical books consistently so EReaders were convinient enough for me to go through them. If physical books still work for you then keep that up, but EReaders worked for curing my book procrastination.

      I wish I had gotten an ereader like a decade ago. My Kindle and pirate hat has gotten me back into reading in a major way. My only gripe is I wish I had know about how easy pirating digital books was gonna be and would have opted for a different brand since fuck Amazon and fuck sunk cost fallacy.

        Same, love my Kobo with Koreader sideloaded. Plowing through books at a pace I haven't had since I was a kid.
