I just found ur channel and I’m obsessed I love ur videos !
I loved watching this video ❤ so happy for you for your new kindle 🎉 I got my first kindle this summer when I returned from vacation and after I saw an elderly lady reading her kindle on the plane 😅😊 I got the kindle basic kids and after I saw the matcha I fell in love so I bought the matcha flip case for my kindle 😂 I somehow feel and share your joy and excitement 😄🥰 sending lots of love from Stuttgart! 🌸
💖💖
The library was your second home.
u look so cute
❤❤❤ this video is so calming 😍
thank you!!
Years ago I bought all kinds of Kindle books until one day I realized we are just leasing the license, and the books once purchased do not belong to us and they can be taken out of our libraries if there is a dispute with a publisher. So now I just buy throw away Kindle books that I will not return to after reading, and order hard copy books that I intend to keep in my bookshelf.
you can always loan books from your public library so you don’t even have to buy them!
Could I ask what the clear back case is? Or does that come with the Kindle? Thanks so much
i purchased it separately! just added the link to the description of the one i got
@ Thanks so much for doing that, that’s so kind of you, appreciate it!
So what’s the update? Loving it? I just got the same one as a first kindle :)
i am loving it!!! no regrets on my purchase!
I think Kill Switch by Penelope Douglas was my favorite from October! I also read 11 books :)
good reading month !!!
does the lack of warm light on the kindle basic bother you? im choosing between the basic and the paperwhite but im not sure if having a warm light is such a big deal.
it doesn’t really bother me- i just do low brightness and dark mode if i’m reading in the dark!!
@@mayagbailey yay thank you! i'll be getting the kindle basic :)
I recently bought a new case for my kindle basic, it's got a clear back, and a sleep/wake front. I absolutely LOVE it!
oooh i’ll have to put that on my christmas list i need that !!
Sooo??? Did you decorate ?? 🥰
yes!! photos are up on my insta @mayagbooks (:
so how do you find reading it in total darkness without the warmlight? does it bother you?
so far no! i just turn the brightness way down or put it on dark mode!
Because of my wife's CONSTANT buying of physical books, I decided to switch to the Kindle to save space and have no regrets
About the ads - you can contact customer service and ask them to remove it, they’ll usually do it for free! Some would charge you but just keep trying and if you’re lucky you’ll end up with an agent who’d do it for free. I did it twice now, both for my basic and paperwhite, and got the ads removed for free.
oh this is great i’ll have to try that !!
Bug Amazon if your free trial doesn’t start. That’s what I had to do
I just bought the kindle paperwhite signature 11th gen like 5 months ago. I wish I had known they were coming out with newer ones
I love the pic you shown on the first page of this clip. I care of the mode amber light and waterproof so i decide not to buy this version if not i will buy it as it is lightest.😊❤
Super exciting! New here btw, and I just got myself my very first Kindle a few weeks ago, I got the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition (11th gen) but then, the new Kindles were announced/released, so I'll be upgrading to the Kindle Colorsoft soon. Subscriber earned 😊
welcome! the kindle colorsoft ones are so pretty!
If you don't have ads you can put the book cover that you are reading.
They do have apps for you to get free kindle books as well
I had my previous kindle since 2015 I think, just bought the 2024 edition, no regrets!
I do not care about my Kindle having ads. I can see if ads were popping up while I was reading, then that would bother me.
yeah that would drive me crazy
I got a basic too :D first e-ink screen for me, I was reading library books on my phone and this is already so much better. I will always love physical books but I am enjoying being able to easily read in the dark or on the go
yes!! the convenience of it is so nice!
It matches your eyes color 💚
I’ve already read Rose Code, it’s very interesting. For now I’m trying to convince myself I don’t need a new e-reader 😂. But if coloursoft would be released in Brazil, resist it’s going to be a challenge 🤪
I have the 11th gen Paperwhite and im obsessed with it but i don't know why i wanna buy the matcha too😢😢😢😢
it’s so pretty! one kindle is enough though!
I got a kindle as a birthday present, and have read over 25 books in 3 months using kindle unlimited. WOW! Definitely recommend reading the Housemaid series by Freida mcFadden from kindle unlimited, and samples are the BEST for deciding if to get a book.
yes samples are so nice !!
that's also my fav book!! I read the second Housemaid at the moment. I own Kindle in 2022 (got it for bday present) and I just used it this month for reading The Housemaid. I'm not a reader but The Housemaid makes me wanna read all of the series 🎉
love her books! i read 7 of them last month
I have 3 kindles. I have 2 kindle oasis, and I bought the basic in matcha, too! I absolutely love using my kindles. The basic model is the perfect size for travel. It's very light, perfect screen size, and the color is stunning.. However, the oasis is absolutely my favorite. The buttons are incredible. The device just feels more luxurious in your hand, plus the oasis is waterproof and has warm light settings, which the basic kindle does not. All in all, any form of kindle that appeals to you is totally worth it, in my eyes. It's awesome to have an entire library in your pocket. Can't beat it!! I hope you enjoy it! Welcome to the Kindle club 😂
omg you must be a huge kindle fan!!
You can set to not show what book you're reading on Goodreads. If you decide to use it, don't worry about that. 😊
oh interesting i’ll have to look into that now!!
I watch unboxing videos to prevent myself from buying another ereader I don't need😭
one ereader is probably enough!
But you Need this one 😂
After i got a kindle i started reading 90% more than i used to. Before i bought it i tought it was a waste of money. Now its my most valuable possession.
i’m so glad i finally got one!!
@@mayagbailey enjoy it 🙂👍
Yes! Same here. Wasn’t sure if the purchase would be worth it and here I am using it daily and reading more than ever. Best purchase I have made for myself in a long time.
does the screen strain your eyes? i am planning whether to buy the matcha basic or the paperwhite in agave green but the i am leaning towards the basic more!
I would go for the Paperwhite. It has the adjustable warm screen. If you read in the dark or before bedtime its a must imo. I got the basic first but traded it in for a paperwhite and never looked back. Its worth the ekstra money.
so far i’ve been fine with reducing the brightness/switching to dark mode if i’m reading in the dark but i do imagine the warm screen would be nice! i just couldn’t find the agave one and i didn’t want to pay that much! you can always trade it in as well!
@@mayagbailey i forgot about dark mode. That is a good sustitute for warm light. I would keep it and enjoy it. Its a sweet little Kindle that you can throw in your bag and doesnt take much space. Also easier to hold with one hand so it does have its positives compared to paperwhite.
@@Fredrik7le i agree, i love the basic for the portability and the new colours for the new paperwhite is just really... not me. that is why i am considering the paperwhite in agave green instead of the new ppw. thank you for your justification tho
@@mayagbailey yes! i am planning to switch to dark mode during night time reading too. since this is my first kindle i think it will be a good start to buy the basic
The matcha match with your eyes
You are going to love using it while in bed on lying on your side. Turning the page with just a tap is the best!! Enjoy it! What a great looking little Kindle.
i already love it so much!
Yay!!! Welcome to the kindle family 🥰 I just got a new ereader too!
A really good crime fiction that I was very surprised that I liked so much is Razorblade Tears by S.A. Cosby
ooh thank you for the recommendation i will add to my list!!
Hair looks gorgeous after the shower. What a fun evening. Sending you warm hugs to help you with the chill. Love you
love you!!
I just thrifted 218 books and spent 30 for my kids teens and adult book giveway at work. I do it because kids are on phones and iPad to much. I given away 1700 books in 8 months at applebees on veterans in metarie la I'm doing another haul tommorow to refill
wow that’s super impressive!
@@mayagbailey I'm getting another haul tommorow
@@mayagbailey th-cam.com/users/shortsIeg43CX2Giw?si=0zUuYPP4-dV8Gc6-
What a haul!!! Loved the vlog, this makes me want to go book shopping so bad 😂
treat yourself!!
Just found your channel. What a great haul! The Nightingale is one of my all time favorite books!!!
yay! i can’t wait to read it!
New subscriber. Will be interested to hear your Opion of Lincoln In The Bardot.
welcome! i’m super curious to see what it’s about!
@@mayagbailey it is a bit odd
Love this for you!!!!! I love the crows!!!
they are my favorite!!
Loved this vlog! New subscriber :) I try to listen to audiobooks at work too - makes it so much easier!
thank you so much!! and yes audiobooks are a game changer!
Wow!! What a fun way to spend $400. Those dollars will give you joy for hours and hours to come!!!
so true!!
I can't wait to get to Babel, I've heard so many great things! If you want to get into Stephen King's books I would definitely recommend 11/22/63, it's my favorite book of all time! And also, reading Misery in the winter is perfect <333
yes you’ll love babel!! thanks for the stephen king recs- will definitely put misery on my winter tbr!
This is such a good list! I’ve had Babel for like a year and haven’t gotten around to it, I’m thinking maybe I should! I feel like the secret history is such a dark academia right of passage, but I wish I knew before going into it that it is a satire lol. And you should definitely read one dark window! I devoured it in one weekend lol and now I’m just waiting for my hold to come in for the second one lol
thank you so much!! you HAVE to read babel!! i feel like based on what i’ve heard about the secret history if you liked that you’ll like babel!!
I'm your 100th subscriber!!!😁
yay!! happy to have you here!! <3
I lol'd when you picked John Brunner's book, kinda flattered it was in the list at all...until - well, never mind. Good Omens is one of my all time faves (you coulda got it from me for free, by the by) and Neil Gaiman has singled out The Shockwave Rider as THE most eerily predictive sci-fi book of the last several decades, viewed in the context of our current social/digital world and the zeitgeist of it...
i will definitely read it before the year is over!! excited about good omens it’s very funny so far
This was so much fun Maya!!! I didn’t realize you were recording me!! Sorry you had to edit out some stuff. Love you!
excited to read the book you picked!
