If so, how do you do it? Do you use Google Play books or use apps like PDF file readers? I'm only 19 and I'm interested to start my reading hobby. Though I can also grab some books on a close bookstore nearby, I am also interested to do it digitally.

I've used moon+ reader pro for years. Maybe even since it's release. (Admittedly I don't use it as much anymore as I prefer eink devices for reading but am stuck with a kindle for now)

The tons of customization options was my biggest draw. plenty of font/layout and color options to help find what works best for you and your device.

I also love and use calibre, but I'm not sure it's needed by OP at this time. It doesn't sound like they've got a large collection of books so I think it would just be overkill and depending on their tech level might turn them off.
