Wow we are neighbors Lilacjive LOL. so how do you like your Kindle? I didnt win one but maybe someday when they come down in price I'll be able to get one. I love to read right now I am reading Merle's Door. Its pretty good. Because of after effects of my cancer and treament I cant do very much phiscally so I read a lot of books sometimes in summer time Ill go out on my patio with a cup of coffee and read a book. I cant go on fancy vacations but I can escape in my books. My favorite place to read is siting on the side of the tub while it fills with water. I can really lose my self there.

They must be putting lilac oil in the water up there...

Welcome to the forum Debbi, I'm sure you'll enjoy it here...

Money can be a problem and sorry to hear about your situation but perhaps you could look at an Ebookwise 1150 for the time being as apposed to one of the eInk readers? Money has been very tight for me and I saved up to buy my son one of them. It is alot easier to save up and swing $110-130 then it is $250-300.

I don't have a Kindle, but a Sony. I love it I'm the same way. Actually, I'm going on vacation and I'm pretty much going to read the entire time.

although I would love to have an E reader I just cant afford one right now but you never know so ill keep looking. Maybe someday. I wish I would have had on when I was going thru chemo it would have made the process easier to take and no lugging books along either. Oh well take care and god bless
