Avid holiday readers can easily get through a book a day while travelling, especially when making epic cross-country journeys on public transport. A good page-turner is always a holiday treat, but a rather heavy one when piled up with a dozen other books in your suitcase. This is where the e-reader comes in, a light and accessible device that will store thousands of books for you, all accessible at the touch of a button. E-readers have been growing in popularity in recent years and it’s easy to see why. Compact and easily transportable, the e-reader is a portal to infinite worlds and wisdom.
