    My boyfriend got me a kindle for valentine’s day and I’m so obsessed with it! I thought I’d only like having physical books and was hesitant to ask for a kindle as a gift but it’s extremely worth it!

    I got my kindle last year and I hardly EVER buy physical books now - usually I buy a coffee at a bookshop and then walk around to get ideas for new books to get on my kindle. There really just are not any cons. I cannot imagine not having it.

    Number one use for the Kindle is the samples to see if you really enjoy the author‘s tone the way they write and the content of the story… if not you can delete it move on if so then you can decide to get the physical copy if you want it. ❤️

I will recommend the Ashes and Embers series by Carian Cole (I am currently reading) It is a rockstar romance series and each book is a different person from the band. I don’t know if you will like it, but I enjoyed them and I finished them in like a day.

    I don't have a Kindle, but I do LOVE the Kindle app on my phone. As an English teacher, I have MAJOR problems! I buy the hardback or paperback for my classroom, sometimes an additional special copy for me if it is an anticipated release for me, and then the kindle book for me to read when I fall asleep in bed. UGH! I'm def showing this to my students though because they like ebooks a lot more.

    Just an FYI, there’s a night mode setting for the iPad and you can turn blue light off on the iPad as well. You mentioned something about the blue light from your iPad being bad for your eyes, so I wanted to throw that out there. I use my iPad for my books. I went back-and-forth on trying to decide if I should get a Kindle instead. The reason I love the iPad is because I can use it to read Kindle, Libby, and even if I want to purchase any books on iBooks. But I still think the Kindle is cute, I am just wondering if you can still do all those things as well on it?

      Do it! I'm like you, I very much like having a book in my hand. But the Kindle has allowed me to read way more than I thought I could (no wait time, cheaper prices). When I go on holiday i'm not worried about which book I should bring, and I can read anywhere regardless of the weather or conditions around me. (Being in the dark isn't an issue). I find my physical selection of books have become far greater because now i'm selective of the books I want physically.

      @@shaylakeeton7405 you can use the app overdrive/libby! Just download it from the app store and input your library card number + pin! From there you can search the book you want! if your library has the book, you can borrow for up to 21 days. Just click on borrow and it will take you to amazon where you can get the book delivered to your kindle. Some books might be popular so they might not be available right away so you can place a hold and overdrive will email you once it becomes averrable. Honestly, this is the only way I read the most popular books and most of the time they are available instantly.
      Pro tip: You can get library card access for multiple libraries in your state all for free. This is helpful because you may find that the library system in your local area might not have the book but a county that is 50 miles may. Just make sure you read the terms and conditions for that library!
      Hope that helps!

The biggest benefit I see is that Kindle Unlimited seems to be Indie books not available at my library so it’s cheaper than buying the paperbacks
