I had a Kindle for a few years, but I like paper books. After a long day at work, it's nice to relax with something that would survive a coronal mass ejection or nuclear EMP.

Unfortunately, the modern world is such that when the IT goes down the only use you will want for a paper book is as something to, well, kindle a fire with.
