A primary reason users purchase e-readers is to read for pleasure, as opposed to reading for work or school purposes. With paper, people sometimes read together from a single book (e.g., reading a bedtime story with a child) – a practice we call partnered reading. This practice, and the goals of e-reading for pleasure more generally, remain underexplored in the HCI literature. This paper contributes findings from a deployment study wherein participants used an e-reader application to read with a partner. These findings (a) provide descriptive accounts of how people use e-readers to read together, and (b) identify opportunities to improve the design of e-readers to support partnered e-reading for pleasure. %G English %Z TC 13 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01501762/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01501762/file/978-3-642-40480-1_2_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01501762 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01501762 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-TC13 %~ IFIP-INTERACT %~ IFIP-LNCS-8118
