Actually, I was logging on to "never mind" my post when I realized that Amazon must have some sort of borrowing system. I never dealt with amazon regarding ebooks at all. When I started thinking about, "Hey, how could they do that without getting cleaned out..." oops, really stupid for not thinking that through.

For the record, I'm not interested in stealing borrowed books at all. I haven't bought books in decades. I used to have tons of books back in the day. I lost them all through theft and moving long distances more times than I can count.

Our state libraries have all gone to cloudlibrary, so I think the best thing I can do is to get a Kobo once I read all the books that are still on my kindle. My ex gave me her Oasis and she put a bunch of books from her cloud on there for me (legitimately purchased). Once those are gone, that's it except for gutenberg, so I think a Kobo makes the most sense for me unless I purchase a library card from somewhere that has a fantastic selection of ebooks. I haven't found that yet.

Anyway, that's a lot of words to say, "Sorry, wasn't thinking..."
