I don't like them either, but I always want to.
I wonder if e-paper or whatever will eventually get so cheap and so good, you could have a physical book full of e-pages, then after you read it, press a button, and it becomes a different book.
I used to hate them too but that changed when i switched to an e-paper reader and use epub files instead of PDFs. With the e-ink (or e-paper) display the pages look like framed book pages, the battery lasts forever and it weights no more than a paperback.
In my opinion, that’s pointless. Reading ebooks is a cleaner and easier experience. I only read physical books so I can keep the books afterwards.
