One of My Favorite Things~My Kindle

I received my Kindle as a gift last year and I fell in love right away.  I am a full time grad student and a business owner.  At any given point in time I am reading a fiction book, a business (non-fiction) book and I need a textbook on hand.  This all gets cumbersome and heavy very quickly.

The Kindle changed all of this.  By allowing me to store all of my books digitally and in one lightweight location, I no longer have to carry big heavy bags of books.  And the best part is that it fits in my purse or work bag and I always have something ready to keep me busy when I have to wait at an appointment.

I have read my Kindle on the beach and I've taken it camping with no problems.  You do have to make a mental note to charge it from time to time.  (Turing off the 3G can save your battery).

Once I know I need a book, I can be reading it within minutes.  However, being able to obtain a book so quickly makes not buying them hard!

I did also receive a case for my Kindle and I would suggest this in order to protect the devise while its in your bag.
There are lots of different types of Kindles available now.  You can check them out here:

  1. I love my Kindle too! I got a case that has a built in LED light that runs off the Kindle battery. Still stays charged for ages.
