The confusion whilst reading a real book and you tap on the page and it doesn’t turn! Anyone else done this?

Not quite that but it took me rather too long than it should in the tent last night to realise that real books don’t like up like my Fire does so I was going to need my headtorch 🙂
Haha! It’s a hardback I am reading and it is so heavy!
Someone gave me a real book a while ago I couldn’t cope bought same book and read it on my Kindle.
I have done that in the past!
I honestly couldn’t go back to a real book now. If you drop them it takes you ages to find your page again. The kindle lights up for reading in bed is quite light when I fall asleep and it lands on the cat who is normally along side me doesn’t flatten her lol
All the time, it’s so annoying. lol
?
On numerous occasions and even tried to turn the pages in a kindle afterwards. ?♀️
I’ve switched from my fire to the old kindle keyboard cause on holiday and keep swiping the screen..!
Never read a real book now ?
Oh yes – and I’m reassured to find it’s not just me ?
Yes!!!
No, but I looked for a bookmark to go in my Kindle app!!
Do this a lot trying to scroll past
I tried to read a real book I ve had for ages,but was frustrated I couldn’t alter the font size !
I don’t tap but swipe left (or right, to go back) instead, have never had an issue.
I reading an actual book and was trying to turn the page by tapping it, which is what I do on my Kindle
Yeah, THAT won’t work.
I couldn’t go back to a real book now, I used to read Stephen King books, some of which are massive, all the same size on a kindle
Have a 200 plus books on my kindle, no lugging around books on the go. Wouldn’t go back to real books now..
Can’t find how to recharge a book
You don’t recharge books.
That’s where I’m going wrong
Sorry, guess I mean I wasn’t sure what you meant – what the issue is?
Does anyone else think that it takes longer to read a book than a Kindle book?
I do!
It does seem to go faster on Kindle, for me especially once I hit about the 70% mark in the book.
I feel I’m able to read quicker on my kindle than a book.
Yes a few times lol!
I try to turn my Kindle.
I have got used to a comfortable position on my side in bed reading my paper white, can be like that for hours no problem, tried to read a pb but only lasted a few mins as was fidgeting about to much ?
Yes. Done it.
Reading the left and right page now feels like you’re watching a game of tennis.
Haha. That’s true!
Just last week. Trying to turn the page by swiping!!.
And real books are so heavy!
Just had to put book down because it is heavy.
I’ve been holding a throw pillow on my lap and putting the book on the pillow.
Great idea. It certainly does help . Thank you
I can better that…..got out of car and walked up path pressing key fob expecting front door to open for me DUH!!
We all have, surely ?
Yes!
I’ve done that!
And I’ve put my book down halfway through without a bookmark in it thinking the place will be saved like the kindle ?
I tried to put my finger on a spot to look up the word. Glad I am not the only one.
I’ve done that, too! SO frustrating! ?
Yeah, must admit I’ve done and just like Louise Obbes, done that too.
I was reading a magazine, I doubled tapped a photo expecting it to enlarge ? xxx
It wasn’t a book but I was stopped at the traffic lights and noticed something in a shop window I liked but couldn’t see the price tag properly so tapped the side widow spreading my fingers to enlarge the picture.
Honestly? Can’t stop laughing at this
me either
Oh yes – I rarely read print books these days so found myself trying to swipe last week!?
