    I am a major bookworm and as a first time user it is easy to navigate and use. I can't put my kindle down. Super light weight, holds charge well too.

    It’s going to be an amazing Christmas present. Amazon was taking forever to process/ship the kindle, but BestBuy was able to do it with 1 day. Which is awesome because living in Alaska this is a common theme with bestbuy. And I will be buy more electronics through them and not Amazon moving forward.

    I always thought I would prefer physical books to an e reader, but I love my Kindle! It’s so lightweight and easy to hold. Tapping to turn the page has actually helped me to read faster than I could with physical books. I love that I can easily purchase a book and have a whole library with me on the go. If you’ve been on the fence like I always was then I definitely suggest getting one!

    Purchased during a sale and then the delivery was canceled and kindle was returned without notification. After talking to customer service I was able to still get the discounted rate! Purchased as a present and they love it.

    I love my kindle paper white. The adjustable brightness helps when I’m wanting to read in bed at night. The long battery life is one of the best features. I could not recommend this product enough

    while stuck in traffic for two hours at night, I was able to take my Kindle out of my purse and sit in the back seat and read. Love the ability to take it with me in a small purse, and be easier to read than an i-phone.

    I am a big reader and had previously always bought paperback books. I had someone recommended getting a kindle and it was the best money ever spent. It’s small enough to fit in my purse and I take it everywhere with me. The battery life on it is amazing:)

    Excellent device to read with, Light is soft on the eyes and it's easy to get metaphorically lost in the digital pages rather than literally while almost dropping the book on your face.

    Got it for my gf to upgrade from her decrepit old kindle. She love the brightness and that the borders are small, we checked it out in person first and its what she wanted. Solid
