There are many public domain and free ebooks that can be downloading. it will always be easier, though, to lay down and read a book rather than staring t a computer screen. A laptop would be preferable.

Talk about eyestrain.

I've never used these e-books, but I think it would be uncomfortable to sit and read a whole book of a computer. Real books are much better.

Why don't you just set your eyes on fire, it would be quicker.

After a day on the computer, my eyes just can’t take a lot of screen reading. I have gone to sites and found short stories I wanted to read. But, I always have to download and print them out to really enjoy them. If you’re curious about things like fan fiction the Internet is a good way to find this and other little off the wall reads you would never find on your Barnes and Noble shelf.

I love to relax by sitting in a hot bathtub and reading or curling up on the sofa with a cup of hot cocoa and a book. I find that very impossible to do with a computer. I'll take real books any day.
