Thrive to spite them

I'm kindle is all messed up the battery died so I charged it. And when I did it wasn't connected to the wifi anymore. I tried a bunch of things and nothing worked. And it was acting slow so I decided just to factory reset it and see what would happen. Except that didn't work either. Not when I went into settings and did it or connecting it to my computer or holding down the power button for 40 seconda.

The only thing that has changed is none of the files seem to be there it shows the books but when I click on anything it tells me it's not there.

I don't think there is anything else I can try but does anyone have ideas?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, shoot, I had that happen a while back. I remember how frustrating it was but not how it was ultimately fixed. Trying to jog my memory…

I got a small bonus at work so I used it to get a new Paperwhite. I couldn't get the old one to do anything which sucks

My eyes are thanking me.

However I hate how wide it is. It's not as easy to hold but I like the adjustable brightness and it definitely responds faster. I will just have to get used to the width but I understand now why stands and page turners have gotten popular. I don't want a stand but when I was laying in bed reading on my side I kind of wished I had a page turner instead of having to move my hand to change the page.
