    I like the convenience of my Kindle a lot for reading, and the process for buying books from Amazon is easy and flawless, as well as cheaper than buying physical books. There are a lot of $1.99 specials of very good books. I just wish the Kindle was slightly larger - more the size of a typical paperback book - because when I'm reading it feels like I'm "turning" a page every few seconds.

    Never thought I would get back into reading, but the Kindle has done it for me. It's like looking at a page and I dont have to bear the weight of lugging around multiple books on a trip. I love it! :)

    I really like the Kindle and appreciate the convenience. I use it all the time and especially like that it is backlit so I can read at night without turning on a light. The only thing I haven't figured out is how to tell which of the downloaded books I've already read. My old Kindle labeled them clearly but I can't find it on this new one. A small problem that is easily worked around.

    I bought this e-Reader because I wanted to use it at the river and by the pool and still be able to see the screen in the sunlight. The Kindle Paperwhite didn't disappoint. Compact and a step above the basic e-Reader.

    I own a a previous model of the kindle and like that. I thought it couldn't get any better. Them I found this its touch screen and it lights up. So you literally can read it anytime, in the light in the dark. I use it everyday.

    I bought this for my brother as a gift for graduating from his masters program. He has been telling me non-stop how much he loves it! He said the battery lasts really long and he is having fun filling it up with books to read!

    So much better than a Fire for reading. Not much good for anything else but for reading in daylight or at night it is great. It stores plenty of books and magazines and the battery last forever.

    Love my PaperWhiite Kindle. It's so easy to read and I especially like the non-glare for outdoors and ease with adjusting font size. I find I'm reading more books this way. Only thing I don't like is how heavy it is.

    I got this for Christmas and love reading books on it. You get no glare and my eyes do not get tired. I previously used an ipad which was too bright and tired out my eyes. This reminds me of the real papers from a book.
