I just bought my first book, a hardcover edition of Dracula. What am I supposed to do with it? I get read it, but, how often am I supposed to read it and pull it out to refer to certain passages, out of research, or to prove an argument? What is the typical usecase for the average book?
>>24788483I am already regretting this chaps. Am I just going to have this giant book with me forever? I am starting to feel extremely helpless.
>>24788486Just use a kindle ereader
>>24788486You read it and then you buy some more books and read them and you reread them sometimes and it doesn't get any easier anon

>>24788483Now you build yourself a bookshelf and put it on display. Then, after you look at it for a time (assuming you've already read Dracula), sitting on a bookshelf that is the product of your own work and it catches your eye, you remember how much you truly enjoyed the book, pull it off the shelf and begin reading it again in your favorite place. Maybe it's in front of the fire on a cool day, or that spot where the sun hits just right through a window. Reading physical books is maximum comfy and gives you a well earned break from the screens. I usually read books as an ebook first. If I like the book, I'll buy a physical copy for re-reads in the future.Have you already read Dracula? I just finished it for the first time and Renfield is my favorite character. I also really like the cover on that book.
