After my family surprised my sister with a kindle touch and various accessories, my boyfriend surprised me with one! My first generation nook (may it rest in peace) gave up the ghost earlier this month after a year and a half of faithful service. After a lot of consideration I decided to replace it with a kindle (and I can take all my books, thanks to a certain helpful apprentice

) but I was going to wait til January.
I'm glad I don't have to now! I just didn't enjoy reading on my iPad that much.
