I can't help but always worry that one day I'll need paper books. I don't know what it is, but I feel like I should start collecting paper books instead of every single book I have is on my Kobo. Which do you do? If you get paper books, is there a source that sells cheaper books. Books are kind of pricey where I look.

All of the books I've read over the last few years have been ePubs on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 because yarr, but if I read them for longer than an hour I start to get a headache. For that reason alone I think physical books are far superior.

Honestly, reading on a tablet kinda scares me. An e-reader sounds a lot safer to me

Get an e-reader. I used to read EPUBs on my phone or PC and I also suffered from headaches. I can read on my Kobo (with KOReader ofc) for hours with no issues.
