Yes, Sharon, it is nice when a book on your wish list gets offered as a special. I like the free downloads because I learn about new authors that way. Then I am eager to see what else they’ve written.

So true! A really good day is when one of my wish list books goes on “special.” One of my Kindle “wants” had a one-day free download recently. Bonus!

I’m glad you agree with my comments. I keep adding books to my Amazon wish list. Some are paper and many are Kindle ebooks. One of these days when I feel like treating myself, I’ll order all of them.

I completely relate to your words, Nancy!! Thanks for articulating my addiction as well. Kindle or paper? I have both. For me, the medium is not worth the emotional brain cells to battle. But I sure do like having my Kindle with me and deciding later if I want to read the novel, non-fiction book, or recent epub I downloaded.

Yes, Wendy, that’s the advantage of a Kindle. You can carry around a lot of books without the weight. Having one doesn’t mean you have to give up paper books. It’s only another means of delivery.

A Kindle is handy when you’re on a trip and don’t want to carry a pile of books. I still like reading paper books at home.

I’m really close to buying a kindle, mainly for it’s compactness (handy for holidays etc), but I could never give up my physical copies, it’s unthinkable…………

Hurray for paper books. I don’t have a Kindle yet and dread the time when paper books are a rarity. That electromagnetic surge sounds scary…and too possible! Let’s enjoy while we can.
