It's very useful for reading books with difficult vocabulary in foreign languages: I can simply tap on a word and get a translation + explanation.
Having a dictionary nearby was normal in the past and it was especially limiting when one was travelling where weight and space had to be considered.
On top of that I stopped buying books, which saves money, time and space. Not a hardcore minimalist but I prefer owning as little rarely used things as possible, especially when moving.

Most people don't like technology here, distrust e-readers, don't find them pretty and are elitist.

Silmarillion after a third when I was 14. Didn't bother after that but I want to read the children of Hurin.
The man without qualities when I was 23. I could see why others liked it but it bore me and it wasn't what I expected.
Usually I finish books, even if I have to go through multiple attempts.
