Ebooks?
Out of curiosity, does anyone here reads ebooks? What's your experience with them? And what device do you use to read them?

I do. I use Moonreader (app) on my tablet. Gives me access to lots of free books. I still prefer an ordinary book, but I now get to read books I would never buy or otherwise get my hands on as real books. I've discovered quite a few interesting writers this way.
It doesn't work when sitting in the sun because a tablet is not adjusted to that kind of light and will mirror, but on the overall I'm very positive.

How is the selection of Dutch ebooks? (Frankly up to this point I'm not even sure if Dutch ebooks even exist already. Never came across any yet, but I haven't really been looking either, to be fair.) Or do you read English ones?

I mostly read English ones through my app, but you can download Dutch ones on torrent sites. You just need to know what authors you want to read and hope they have it. There is quite a selection of romans and literair werk on it. Of course you can always buy Dutch ebooks. Bol.com has a fair selection I think.

I tend to read them on my laptop, mostly free classics.
