A quiet web corner for thoughtful readers
Ebook Friendly is a quiet corner of the web for people who love the written word in all its forms, and who want to care about digital well-being.
Reading in the 21st century shouldn’t come with endless interruptions. That is why we are dedicated to keeping Ebook Friendly a clean, calm, and sanctuary-like space for book lovers.
Whether you turn pages on a Kindle, flip through an e-ink micro-reader, stream audiobooks, or visit your local public library, we believe that all ways of reading are equal.
Our sister site, Geek Updated, is about making tech help us live a better, more mindful life, Ebook Friendly is dedicated entirely to books and e-reading. Our mission is simple: to make modern, digital reading a more mindful, practical, and inspiring experience.

We are Piotr Kowalczyk and Ola Kowalczyk. We have been married for 30 years, living a calm life in Warsaw, Poland, with our two daughters and two cats.
At our age, time is the only thing we refuse to waste. Why fill the day with noise when you can keep it simple? That is what we write about now.
