I am reading more now than before but still no more than 3 books a week. When I read a book I start at the beginning and read it all, then I remove it. I do a series the same way first to last, I never reread, that is a bore to me. I tried that with the a book I read over 10 years ago and stopped because I still remember the whole book. I read for entertainment and to relax now. Before I retired I read for my profession and had no time to enjoy leisure time reading like I would had liked. But I still retain almost every thing I read back then too. And yes I still have the materials from my profession and I can still answer most of the questions I need to at times. I retired almost 7 years ago

None of my ereaders has crashed yet. Or died. But if it should happen, I'll just use another. I have four at the moment and they're not likely to die all at once.

I have no complaints about battery life, indexing or anything else. All my ereaders work just fine.

I reread often. I also rewatch movies. What can I say, my memory is poor.
