I'm sure that if I commuted on public transportation I would appreciate the convenience of the Kindle much more.

This is when I read. Also, I can get fanfic on there pretty easily. But I wasn't using it at all when I was getting a ride and/or had a smart phone on which I could read fic.

I am trying to be careful so that noone steals my kindle thinking it is an ipad or something.

I *love* reading on the Kindle. I didn't expect to, but I do.

Me, too.

I hoped I would, but it hasn't grabbed me. That may yet change. We'll see.

Me three.

I have SOOO much work to do that I can't even work as I am so unfocused. I really need to hire a student, because this is the cause of me having so much work.

My library hasn't lost any books since it went to a computer system with bar codes. They scan them in before they go on the cart. I managed to lose one, though.

The library started lending ebooks through Overdrive about two weeks ago, but they have a limitation on how many people can "check out" a book at a time, even though there's no physical reason for that. Everything I wanted to check out I would have had to put on hold, which sort of defeated the impulse factor.

I think they buy a certain number of "copies" (licenses, I assume) of a given e-book, so in effect it's like checking out an analog book -- if all 3,000 copies of Breaking Dawn are checked out, then #3,001 has to wait.

I have pdf crochet patterns on my Kindle. They work out well and I can change the size to make it more readable. Not in color, since it's a touch but that's okay.

Dad got me this for Christmas and I like it way more than I thought. I've only bought 1 full price book (V is for Vengeance) and the rest have been free or really cheap. I have a bad habit of flipping to the end to see what happens and then getting bored and never finishing a book. I don't do that with the Kindle.

Also because my place is saved I find I'm not going back and rereading sections because I can't remember where I stopped. So it's easier for me to read a couple of pages of one book, then a few of another.

I'm reading a whole lot more classic/old stuff than I have, because I can grab it off Gutenberg and ManyBooks when I get a yen for something, and it's easy to have three or four things in progress at once. "Hm, let's do a few more pages of Woman in White--no, no, Whose Body? just came out as a freebie, read that!--no, where's that long Harry/Draco fic, I want to re-read that one scene. Hm, where's that Austen I was thinking of reading? Oh! Jane Eyre!"

It's very decadent.
