With ebooks, any category of book can be accessed with a quick download, whether you're looking for classic literature or the latest guilty-pleasure thriller.ĭedicated e-readers don't have the internet, email, social media or other entertainment options to lure you away from your book, and they have great battery life to boot. While you can read a book with any phone or tablet if you have an app like Apple Books, Kobo, Kindle or Nook installed, a far less distracting and much more enjoyable and reading experience awaits with a dedicated e-reader.
