From your later post it appears you will have your Kindle in hand before your vacation starts.

Now -- find yourself some good books to read. If you like Science Fiction, try out the Honor Harrington series by David Drake, available at Baen. I'm now on book #3 and am hooked. Because you'll want to experience the immediate delivery of a book or two from Amazon, pick out at least one best seller in your favorite genre and make that your first order. Then, since owning an eBook reader is "good for you", plan to download at least one or two classics that you've been meaning to read, but just never got around to. Personally, I'm starting in on Anthony Trollope rather than tackling something too intellectual like Flaubert, Chaucer, or Aristotle.

Have fun.
