    There are more things you need to do on this template.Reduce the size of the left side bar so that it matches your Google adsense.Then the very top menu is not properly seating in that place.Otherwise it is a good design.

    Nice layout but the ads background especially both ads on the left side should blended with your layout background

    The main navigation on the top needs little more extra space so that there will be no clutter.

    If the site doesn't have too much traffic, I'd minimize the ads until it goes up

    I enjoyed the way that you laid out the content. The way that you described the stress involved with carrying books the old fashioned way as your introductory, almost reminded me of those vintage stories that grandpa used to share about having to walk five miles to school in a driving snowstorm. The opening paragraph is definitely an attention getter as it keeps the reader interested in the content as it starts to transition over onto the subject of digital textbooks.

    It's not bad, overall a little sluggish though. Make sure you have caching enabled w3 cache or something along those lines. I love Wordpress but once you get it full of content and a few plugins it tends to start slowing down.
