Both an e-reader and physical books are great. Some things are easier with a physical book, others with a digital. With a physical book you have a more “intuitive” feel for where in the book some things happened so it can be easier to find it again if you want to show someone or something like that. Digital books often keep where you are in the book and you can actually search in them to find what you’re looking for.
And physical books look great on a shelf in a way that an e-reader doesn’t quite match. But for any travel an e-reader is massively better.
