I got a big compendium of 18th C novels. I used Calibre to split it into separate eBooks. Much better for reading & research. I'd do that with Shakespeare complete works too, except I have the few Shakespeare plays I want as separate eBooks from Gutenberg as a well as some on paper.
The only bible I have that's slow is an old Jewish one in English that's a PDF. The others I have seem well designed for eReader use, though I've not tried NIV yet. Though for research I often use online ones that allow several translations at once. Like exactly what context and how often is Lilith, Nephilim and horsemen of the Apocalypse etc? All useful info for either reading some fantasy works or writing them. George Macdonald's Lilith is rather vampirish. His Lilith isn't one of the easier 19th reads, but interesting. I have it on paper and from Gutenberg.
