KINDLE

MARY IS THE READER IN CAMP, AND LATELY SHE’S BEEN COMPLAINING THAT HER EYES GET TIRED FASTER, AND I NOTICED THAT A LOT OF HER LIBRARY BOOKS ARE THE LARGE PRINT EDITIONS.

I DECIDED TO GO AHEAD AND BUY A KINDLE SINCE YOU CAN ADJUST THE SIZE OF THE FONT.  TODAY KINDEL’S RANGE FROM $79 - $199. THE $199 KINDEL FIRE WAS THE HOTTEST SELLING ITEM AT AMAZON FOR THE CHRISTMAS SEASON, I SELECTED THE MORE CONSERVATIVE $99 KINDLE TOUCH.

THE KINDLE CAME IN THE MAIL IN A WEEK, AND WAS WAS ALREADY REGISTERED. THE FIRST TIME IT HOOKED UP TO THE INTERNET ON WI-FI, MY NAME CAME UP IN THE CORNER.

I HAVE A WEBSITE THAT LISTS FIVE FREE BOOKS EVERY AFTERNOON, AND WITH A COUPLE OF CLICKS THE BOOKS DOWNLOAD WIRELESSLY TO THE KINDLE, IT’S LIKE MAGIC.  OLDER CLASSICS, OUT OF COPYRITE, ARE FREE, AND THERE ARE LOTS FREE BOOKS AVAILABLE FROM THE KINDLE STORE ON THE INTERNET.

MARY IS GOING TO BE TAKING A CLASS AT THE LAUGHLIN LIBRARY WHERE SHE WILL LEARN TO BORROW KINDLE BOOKS FOR FREE FROM THERE ALSO.

THE LARGE PRINT AND EASY TO READ SCREEN HAS BEEN AN EYE SAVER.

(THE CURRENT “DOORS AND DRAWERS” SCORE: 10 DONE, AND 40 TO GO. THE BATHROOM IS DONE, WE’RE HEADED TO THE 10 IN THE BEDROOM NEXT.)

Here is a subscription link to a utility that will send a list of free e-books for Kindle DAILY to your email. You can pick and choose which ones to "buy." One caveat: Each daily list is only guaranteed to have all books listed free on that day only.

here is another one you can check daily. just double check the price because they sometimes switch back to their regular price before the list can delete it.
