So I've tried reading digital books before, but I usually still prefer real, hand-held books. You just can' beat that.
Buuuuutttttt......... I've kinda liked reading books on my phone lately. Maybe it's because the last book I read was very relatable to me. Like I seriously had to repeatedly remind myself that *I* was not the main character, even though many aspects of her life were identical to my own. It was a bit strange...I felt like the author had been secretly following me around and basing the books on my experiences. Weird.
Anyways, part of what I've enjoyed is that there are so many free books available. I'm always looking for new books to read, so it's nice when I see a selection of free books and can just pick the ones that seem interesting. (Check out Pixel of Ink on Facebook if you are interested. Several times a day they send out a list of free eBooks.)
The main problem with digital books is that I always have them with me and am thus always tempted to read it...even when I'm not supposed to!
What about you? Do you read digital books? Where do you find the ones you get?

The few ebooks I've read have been for school in which case, yes I loved reading them online because it meant that I didn't have to carry multiple books in my backpack to class everyday - plus they were all free (or I could at least read enough on google books to know what was going on even if a few of the pages were missing from viewer.)
I recently read, Les Miserables, for enjoyment on the ipad, which was great because it is usually HUGE and weighs close to six pound.
