His family was not well-off. He could have read novels online, but he had to buy physical books online. Moreover, he had read them before. He had bought them but had not read them many times. Was this good?

He was from a poor family and could have read novels online, but he had to buy physical books online. Moreover, they were all books that he had read before, and he had only bought them a few times. This behavior was not desirable because physical books had their own unique value, such as collection value, reading experience, touch, and so on. At the same time, physical books can also give people a feeling of "I already have it", which may be more motivating to read in some cases. Of course, some people might think that spending a certain amount of money to buy a physical book is worth it because they can enjoy the physical form of the book and its collection value. But if you've already read these novels, then buying physical books is not very meaningful because it won't bring you new reading experience and knowledge. Therefore, we should decide whether to buy physical books according to our actual situation and reading needs. If you don't have enough money to buy a large number of novels, you can choose to read them online to save money and time. However, if one had enough money to buy a physical book, they could decide whether to read the book they had already read according to their reading needs and interests.
