Question: Do you prefer reading on paper books or e-readers before bed?
National Anti-Junk Light Day is observed annually on September 10 and was founded in 2018 to highlight the dangers of the harmful lights we use every day. The invention of smart screens and LED lights have had underlying effects on human health that are very often overlooked.

Theoretically, longer hours of light could make humans more productive if they have increased output; however, overexposure to junk light can have detrimental effects that range from distorted sleeping patterns to eye defects. On National Anti-Junk Light Day, more people are encouraged to limit their daily usage of junk lights.

As much as I love holding the real book, for the same reasons as everyone else, I do not have the space for books. I much rather prefer to use my shelves and storage space for paper, and scrapbook albums. I’m going to say I prefer e-books. I also like audiobooks.

I read e-books. I miss holding and smelling a real book but with the amount of books I read, I would go broke buying them and our local library is pretty small. So I read free e-books on my Kindle.
