How to Read an Online Romance Novel
Reading a hardback novel is not the only way to enjoy a good romance book these days. Ebooks are available online to read free of charge via numerous online libraries and ebook publishing sites. Even the new portable iPad has been developed to make a wide range of ebooks readily accessible. A reader no longer has to make the trek to the local bookstore to trawl through the tightly stacked book jackets on the bookshelf.

Select a site and click on it. Usually the book site will show featured books on the home page. It will also have a list of other titles and a list of book genres for you to choose from or a search feature for you to search for a specific novel or author.
For instance, Public Bookshelf is an online library of romantic novels featuring contemporary, fantasy, suspense and historical romances. It also has a list of top-10 romances for the week and a search feature at the top of the page. Free Online Novels is a site that not only specializes in romances but also offers various genres and provides a list of genres for you to choose. However, it does not have a search feature.

Tips & Warnings
If you don't want to read the whole book onscreen, you may be able to print off a copy, providing the site allows you to do this. Some ebook sites are designed so you can read a daily chapter of an ebook, such as Romance Notes. (Reference 3)
