Like #3 in the article. And #4.
Which I found amusing as a friend of mine is an avid historical ebook reader... when he's not reading about zombies and Lincoln the vampire hunter.

Me, I enjoyed Julie Kenner's Protectors series.
(There's more to ebook life than John Ringo and David Weber blowing things up, no?)
