My mum has recently been converted to using the Kindle and keeps telling me I should invest in one! At the moment I'm reading through a lot of DHLawrence and other things for research. When i'm having a moment off I'm reading the companion book to Downton Abbey which is surprisingly interesting and useful!
I have had my kindle for almost a year now...and I wasn't sure I would like it, but I do.
I still read conventional books though.
It is a boon for those thick tomes......those that make your arm go to sleep.
I think if you got one Dianne, many of the classics are free...or very low cost and there is also the daily deal for the kindle (99p for a download)
