I’ve started reading on a mini iPad though, rather than my Kindle Paperwhite.
I see that @Jasmine19 mentioned the covers up above🙂
@tansy I have hardly picked up my Kindle for years because the mini IPad is THE best to use for reading for me. Brighter, clearer, I can see any pictures well, plus do other things when I tire of reading or need to check e-mail.
It's my favorite electronic device, and my husband has one and that's all he uses now for 90 percent of his reading or web browsing.

i never felt comfortable doing it when the craze first began.
there is just something "special" to me about reading a book and holding it in your hands, especially hard cover books.
My best friend said that over and over for years. I'll never get an E reader; I love real books. Well she hasn't held a real book in her hands for years. She won a Kindle and that was that.
She said the same thing about cruises> "i'll never take a cruise'....cooped up on a boat on the water? No way. Well, she and her husband take 2-3 a year both here and river cruises in Europe.
I still read real books every now and then . I get them from the library but I love my Kindle and think it's one of my best decisions ever!!

I too get a lot of my books from the library downloaded to my Kindle. That is the best feature, I think. I use my local library although for some reason they haven't had many of the books in E format that I wanted. So, I get them from the local library in PA where we used to live. I'm glad I kept my library card number.
