質問
Do you prefer paper books or e-books?
モデル回答
E-books for convenience, paper for pleasure, I'd say. On my commute I read on my phone because it's always with me. But for a book I really care about, I want a physical copy — there's something about the smell of the paper and physically seeing my progress that a screen can't replicate.
質問
What kind of books do you usually read?
モデル回答
Mostly non-fiction these days — popular science, history, the occasional business book. I go through phases, though. Last year I got absorbed in a series of detective novels and finished eight of them back to back. A good page-turner beats any streaming service, in my opinion.
