i got a kindle a few years ago and basically i've been reading a helluva lot more since i got it. nowadays I even use the kindle app on my phone and tablet and it all syncs up perfectly across devices.

I bought a Kindle Touch in, I think, late 2011. I've read ~25 books on it. It's paid for itself.

I've read a shitload of books on my keyboard kindle, like at least 80 or 90, if you turn wireless off when you don't need it you only gotta charge the loving thing once a month

i bought a nook simple touch reader with a barnes and noble gift card. it was my favorite electronic item for a long time. i took it backpacking. then, later, it broke its own screen while sitting on a shelf.

As much as I like eink, I do not enjoy the kindle experience. I would rather read a real book. I'd rather display a real book. I don't know.

it's easy as gently caress to order a book or send a preview to an actual kindle

plus there's no DRM so you can pirate books if you want the used bookstore experience

I can browse poo poo on amazon then send a sample to my kindle, and if I like the sample I can instantly buy it on my kindle and it downloads in like 2 seconds and poo poo is usually like 10 bucks
