My husband received a bonus at work – which means that we went on a spending spree – and oh what a spree it was! My husband bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab, Rae bought her some toys, and I got a Kindle 3G! Plus we even paid some bills, too. Overall, it has been the best September ever – or at least in a very long time.
I have been wanting a Kindle for months. I’m not an avid reader – so I worried I just wanted it to have it. So I never bought one but with the extra money came a chance to buy it with less guilt. Since then I have downloaded a few books and a lot of active content (read- games).
At first I was playing more games than reading but that was because I was in the middle of reading A Game of Thrones in paperback. Once I finished it, I started reading A Clash of Kings on the Kindle. Now that I’ve started reading on the Kindle, I can’t remember the last time I played a game.
Anyway, I am really enjoying my Kindle and find that I can actually read more on it than in books. My problem with books is that I like to read in bed, and I get tired of hold the pages open. My hands get tired and it can be hard to see when you get about halfway through the book.
The Kindle is much easier on my eyes and hands. My only regret is not getting the Kindle case with a light. I have really wished for extra light several times already. This may be something I will pick up.
I have to admit that I was really envious of the tablet but love my Kindle. I may become an avid reader after all.
