Tactile experience of a book
With the recent closure of Book Depository, one might think that print is dying but I doubt that we will ever stop collecting books. Whether it is a coffee table or a novel, reading a book by flipping its pages will always be my preferred choice. The tactile experience in itself is important, similar to physically visiting a brick and mortar or an art installation. On the other hand, having my kindle on flights does make packing so much simpler so it isn't a question of advancement but of convenience.
These are some books that will be available in store soon for your browsing.
