Do you like reading books？How do you usually do i？Smartphones and e-readers have become more common in recent years.Some people worry that the days of paper books will be gone，But recent studies have shown that traditional books become popular again among readers.
According to the latest research in the UK，sales of e-books are falling while sales of paper books are rising.More surprisingly，it's young people who are buying the most physical books.Another study of university students from the United States，Slovakia，Japan and Germany also shows that 92 percent of them like paper books better.
So what is behind this？
The most popular reason given was"I like to hold the books." Reading paper books is very different from reading c-books.Slovakian students said that they liked the smell of paper books.Other students said that they got a feeling of achievement when they finished reading a paper book and they enjoyed seeing it on the bookshelf.
Paper books can also be very personal objects to lovers of reading.Many people like sign their name on the inside cover.The cover may get bent（彎曲） or there may be a stain（污點） made on the pages from coffee or food.But these accidents make the book even more personal.It's as if readers make friends with them.
This"friendship" people develop with books isn't just sentimental（情感的）.Research has shown that readers remember more information reading from paper books than e-books.People also more easily end up with headaches or sore eyes while reading e-books.
It seems that paper books，which have been made since the 15 century，still have an attraction.So why not pick up a paper book and start reading？
