This case study explores the affordances of a digital reading platform, XReading, in helping Jasmine excel in reading. Jasmine is a freshman at a state university in Malang. The department where she studies, offered Extensive Reading (ER) course as a compulsory part of the curriculum in the first semester. During the 16-week ER course, Jasmine read more than 1,000,000,- words from the website. The initial target for the 2022 cohorts was 120,000 words in a semester. Thus, it is important to understand why Jasmine read more than the expected target words and what had her kept going. A semi-structured interview was done with Jasmine after the class ended. The findings of the present study help teachers of Extensive Reading (ER) programs to shape their classes in such a way that encourage learner autonomy. This presentation also shows how reading in an electronic age affects students’ motivation in a positive manner.
