It's not the same as having a physical book in your hands, but there are occasions I prefer e-books (like vacations).

Good on you for trying it - I know the feeling, though; for so long I was hesitant to read eBooks because I wasn't sure how to get them from Netgalley to my kindle or set it all up, but when it I tried it was so easy!
