Interesting idea, I think I would try it with eBooks that were part of a print series or by a popular author so students could see another option.

This is a very interesting article that appeared last week and has created a lot of comment online. There is quite a backlash against it including an article in the current Listener saying that there is no 'should' in reading for pleasure. I am firmly of the opinion that any reading is GOOD reading and won't apologise for what I read!
