Months ago I was so into buying a Kindle Fire. I am born a book lover. I was brought up by my parents to love every kind of book - so books are not alien to me. The only thing is, when you grow older and this technology occupies most of our time, we tend to forget what fun it is to read a book. We also tend to learn how to budget so those costly paperbacks are placed at the end of our lists. But if the wallet permits, or when I convinced someone to buy me one as a gift (*wink*wink) it is sure to come to my hands in no time. :) I remember going into school libraries before just to borrow some Nancy Drew or Hardy Boys books. In college where the library is full of geeky books, I always find time to look into our tiny stash of novels and borrow one for the week or even have it extended for a month. I borrowed "Killing Me Softly" novel from my college library and was so thrilled that after 3 months it was shown in the movies.
Just as I am to have my full commitment to buy a Kindle, I was able to try out the Kindle Cloud reader (https://read.amazon.com/) and PC App. Believe me, it was heaven sent! I installed one on my phone and the PCs that I've been using most of the time. Knowing how Amazon supports its in-house Kindle by sharing books that are for a time free is so amazing to hear for a book lover. I may not be holding and smelling a good paperback copy but I am able to enjoy the peace and quiet of having something to read.
I tried it out and is currently reading Moving On by Tricia Grace (http://www.amazon.com/Moving-Ghost-Past-ebook/dp/B0071MZNQG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1331113897&sr=8-1). I have saved it at my Cloud Reader for free and I'm loving it! Yey! No costs, just pure fun reading!
