Books, Readers, and Beyond: #53 Finding Books Online Exercise 3

I downloaded the book, About my Sisters by Debra Ginsberg from Overdrive. For entertainment, I still at this point would prefer reading a paper copy, but perhaps that is because I do not own a device that I can download to. I certainly can not see myself reading on a desk computer a book for pleasure. I can certainly see, however, doing this for perhaps, a cookbook, or some other nonfiction title that I wish to refer to quickly. Which brings me to the advantages of the online format - being able to find words or terms quickly (handy if you want to go back and reread something) and being able to bookmark.
