Best e-reader for windows
I'm kinda new to this e-reading busing and I was wondering which (freeware) software is best for reading e-books on my windows 8 pc. Currently I'm using sumatra pdf which is very light and simple but doesn't have many features. What do you guys recommend?

Re: Best e-reader for windows
On my PC I have a Kindle for PC simply because I've had an Amazon account since they went online. I love my Kindle - bought the very first one they had out. I currently use the Kindle Paperwhite as my reader. I convert epub files to Kindle's files in Calbre and then transfer them to the Kindle.

Yeah, I also want to buy one but they aren't cheap Although I figure it must be well worth it. Reading ebooks on a laptop or desktop is alot more demanding for our eyesight and not as pratical.

Re: Best e-reader for windows
One of the very elderly ladies in my church's book club bought a used one on Amazon (from an Amazon seller) for less than $40. However, as I said you don't have to have a Kindle to use the Kindle PC reader that I provided the link for. You just convert the epub files to mobi in order to read them. That's why I love Calibre so - it keeps all those files in one place on your computer for you.

Yes, I'll look into it. Thanks for the advice. Also thanks a lot for "Once Pined" by Blake Pierce. I was looking for that for ages and couldn't find it for free anywhere. Now I can keep reading the series in order

You're welcome. Just holler if you need any assistance regarding the PC reader or Calibre should you decide to download them.
Glad to share my Pierce book. I love his books.
