Well, I Confess: Over A Year Later – The Kindle Won!!

From July to Christmas, I debated and debated whether to Nook or Kindle.  Then came Christmas and my children decided for me.  They clubbed together and got me the Kindle 3G…………….. I LOVE IT!!  I decided I was going to have to get an ereader as I am developing arthritis in my hands and it gets aggravated by holding books.  I read a great deal so it gets really aggravated!  The only problem with the Kindle is how much money one can end up spending without realizing just HOW much.  I search through the Kindle Storefront, download a sample – just like browsing in a library or bookshop – and then highlight BUY and and BUY and BUY………. I don’t even want to confess how much money I have spent since last December.  It’s certainly more than I would have spent going to a bookshop.  I do still prefer books, though.  There is nothing like the anticipation that comes with opening the cover of a new, eagerly anticipated, book and diving in.

One good thing:  The Kindle has broken me of my lifelong habit of reading the last page of a book first……… HO HUM!
