are websites that sell e-books where you can buy them and load them right onto whatever devise you choose. the e-book makes it possible to take reading with you, without the mess of carrying dozens of books around with you. however, not all book authors are okay with having their books in digital format(格式). the creator of harry potter says that her books will never be an e-book, and many just like her feel the same way. however, there are lots of authors who absolutely love the idea and feel its the next step to keep books alive.the e-book can be loaded onto an e-reader which is a mini-devise that is slim and compact(简洁的) just like a cell phone. it usually has a touch pad screen and can hold a few hundred books. thats perfect news for people who travel on planes or go on holidays and would love to take a collection with them but wouldnt carry fifty hard covers.the other great thing about e-readers is that you can read e-books on them quickly and theres no need for two hands to hold the book and turn the page; it is more convenient for people to read it
