Do you get through a book faster on your e-reader than when reading paper?

Not being able to flip back easily is one of the few negative features of ebooks.

For me the positive outweighs the negative.

Part of the issue is I get so excited when I go to the library from reading the back flaps that I end up taking too many home, lol. Then I have a return date so I feel I need to read those first. I imagine that would change if I borrowed e-books from the library. Right now I own all of mine.

You can read the same information online.

Ebooks return themselves. You can get them from your library from home via the Internet.

I buy maybe 3-4% of my ebooks, the rest I get from libraries. I have no use for fiction I have already read. And if I did I could just check it out again.

I do have a nice reference library of non-fiction books based on my hobbies and other interests. I pick what books to add to my reference collection by checking out tons of library books, and then buying only perhaps the best few out of 20.

I use my kindle to read books off of kindle unlimited. Other than that I really prefer paper books.

I am much more comfortable reading paper books. I get more pleasure, and also do not damage my eyes.
