In my stocking

Nothing in the postbox this week, but of course, Santa has been...........

I have now caught up with technology and my dear partner bought me a Kindle.  My dear daughter, C, bought me a lovely lilac case for it. :)

This time last year I turned down a Kindle from my partner, saying I loved books too much and didn't think I would be interested in a Kindle.  One year on and I have room for a Kindle as well as my books.

My first impressions........

• It is very light-weight.  
• I love being able to read hands-free or with just one hand. 
• The pages turn quite quickly and I am sure this is saving me time, as I no longer have to reposition my hands after turning a page. 
• It was fairly easy to set up, after a false start.  I had kindle for pc and my books were in that account.  I had to remove the books from that acc and move them to the actual kindle.
• still cannot believe that kindles are not back-lit.
• Kindle will be my preferred reading material when travelling.
• I will still want books in paperback, too
