    here is the address of a site that is a must for people who like to read...

    www.questia.com

    for a meagre €140 annual subscription you can download and read/print entire copies of absolutely every book ever written, on every conceivable topic, even the most obscure. it was recommended to me by my sister as a good aid to studying for my degree, and the first book i downloaded started with the front cover and ended with the back cover... nothing left out. (that particular book would have cost me €130 on its own).

    its an absolutely great resource, well worth checking out.
    you can get novels and all on it.

    Although It sounds quite good, I enjoy reading a physical book.
    Just feels nicer, turning pages, looking how much you have left, it being portable etc.

    Would be good for studious tasks, but for a hobby, My preference would be a library.

    Everybody prefers a physical book, and most people flat can't read from the screen for any period of time.

    not me though, I found a website that has (copyrighted) books free for download, just finished reading Dune again
