I have to shout out to everyone that, "I love my Kindle"!!
I received the first edition as a gift for my birthday in June of last year, and I have to say I was unsure about it.
First of all, it is expensive ($350). Second, I really love the feel of turning pages, the weight of a good book in my lap and the smell of paper (though not the "germy" paper of library books). I do not like reading books online, and assumed that reading on the Kindle would be the same. I was worried that the money had been spent and I would end up not liking it, and worse, not using it.
I was so wrong! I fell in love with "my Kindle" immediately. I downloaded my first book, after browsing the easy to use Kindle Store, and literally 30 seconds after selecting, I was in literary bliss. It has barely left my hands since then.
For all of you who are "greenies", this is perfect! No more wasted paper or wasted gas on transporting all those books to all those various retailers. For those who are cost conscious, the initial cost is sweat producing, but as you download book after book for a third of the costs of buying printed books, you will feel better. And finally for all of you who (like me) "were in the back of the line when they handed out patience", as my mother says, will love it most of all. While ravenously reading the Twilight series over Christmas vacation, I would finish one book at 2am and by 2:01am the next was downloaded and the temporarily insance obsession would go on.
I have been inspired by the possibilities of Kindle. I only read books, but you can read magazines and newspapers as well. Needless to say, my reading addiction as been continuously kept aflame because of the Kindle.
Be inspired, get aroused and be ignited by Amazon's Kindle (nasty cat not included)! Let it light your literary fire!
Happy Reading.
