I realize it is a re-working of the artwork they’ve been using for ten years, but this has taken a dark turn.
A. I read in the dark with my Paperwhite.
B. What makes you think it's a boy? Could be a girl. In today's world, if you're a liberal, there are even other choices.
C. What even makes you think it's a child?

The graphic works for me and I like the new app, too. I'd love it for being much faster if nothing else.

I’ll refer you to http://www.thekindlechronicles.com/2...s-android-app/ concerning gender assignments etc.

I know I’m overthinking things but I don’t like it just aesthetically.

The new iOS app is up to 6.0.2. I guess they are finding bugs.
