book reclist?

The Sony Reader I'm getting is supposed to come with 700+ free books, including the seven Harry Potters, the Artemis Fowls, and the Percy Jacksons. I can't remember if The Hunger Games were in there, although I have vague recollections of seeing them as I scrolled through. I also spotted assorted classics (Austen, Bronte, Christie, Dickens...), as well as more modern adult books (Stieg Larsson's "X with the Y Z" series, a couple of Dean Koontz, way more Eric Lustbader and Tom Clancy than I'll ever need to read...). All fine for the general read, but sometimes you want something a little more specific to your tastes...

So here's my question for those of you with e-readers:

1. Fiction or non-fiction?
2. Your entire bookshelf, or just those things you want to carry with you?
3. How do you decide between e-book and/or physical book?
4. What are your recs for books (or fics off AO3) I should get me a hold of? Female and non-white authors and protags preferred.

cool link: San Francisco in colour, 1906

Also: Colour photos of San Francisco after the 1906 earthquake found at Smithsonian: likely the first colour images of San Francisco ever taken!

Also: stepbro is engaged to be married. Engagement party to be the Easter weekend. He'll be receiving a quilt from me for the wedding - must ask him and his fiancee about colours.

Am contemplating a prettified sheet set for the engagement, though. Contemplating. Not sure there's time to do it, though...
