My first ebook was The alchemist by Paulo Coelho
I thought of it as my first ebook before I read it

Wiki excerpt:
Paulo Coelho is a strong advocate of spreading his books through peer-to-peer file sharing networks. He put his own books on file-sharing networks like BitTorrent, and noted that The Alchemist received a boost in sales due to this.[26] He stated that "I do think that when a reader has the possibility to read some chapters, he or she can always decide to buy the book later."[26] Currently, chapters from The Alchemist can be found on Google Books and Coelho's agency Sant Jordi Associoados.[27][28] Entire copies of his books, including translations, can also be found on Pirate Coelho, a blog off Coelho's main blog.[29]
