She also doesn't drive, so she only gets to her favorite book store if I take her. We will still go to the book store, but at least now, if she wants a book, she has an alternative way to get one. We might even save a few dollars since she tends to read NYT best sellers.
Yes, if she is a voracious reader of NYT best sellers, the difference between the $9.99 on the Kindle and (even discounted) hardcover pricing will mean the device will pay for itself before all that long.
