I have had my Kindle for almost 2 years.. I have always been a prolific reader, and I rarely re-read books.
According to last month's books count that I keep, I read 24 books & 53 novellas/shortstories.
Now, I admit that this summer I do have a bit more spare time than normal, as I am taking care of my 91 yo. grandmother who fell in April, and not at home with my DH, 3 teens, 2 cats, dog, and RL. Normally I average 20/21 books per month.
I am also back in college full-time to change careers, getting outta teaching and into nursing (hopefully-find out next week). I also quilt - machine piecing and quilting or nothing would ever get finished, and I design many of my own quilts. I watch very little TV, 2 shows really, Eureka & Warehouse 13. And I like to play with graphics, so I've made um. somewhere around 3K screensavers for my Kindle... not that I have more than 20 on it at a time, and I have posted about half of the ones I have made for others. I don't play online games, I do visit Kindlboards regularly, and pop in here about once a day since joining.
