e-bookstore
Online reading marketplace
An e-bookstore is an online retailer selling electronic books for download to e-readers, tablets, or computers.
Amazon's Kindle store dominates the market, but independent e-bookstores and library lending platforms also exist: I bought the novel from an e-bookstore and started reading immediately.
