    All I wanted was a black and white reader at a good price and that is what I happily got. Simple perfection.

    I absolutely love the kindle. I can read it in the sun or in the dark in bed. The lighting is perfect for all kinds of atmospheres.

    I purchased the Amazon - Kindle Paperwhite to replace my wife's Kindle fire. She loves it and says it is so much easier to read.

    It is highly recommended for someone who loves reading. Easy set up, lots of books to download. I have iPad, but this beats reading experience hands down. One downside is that the new Kindle Paperwhite has lower battery life compared to it's previous generation. Hence only 4 star.

    Lightweight E reader

    This e reader is very lightweight, holds a charge for days and is easy to use. Be aware that the display is only black and white so books with pictures are not the best on here. Besides that it is great at reducing eye strain and the backlit screen makes for added versatility.

    This e-reader is great for the price I bought it for! Although I bought it on sale I would still buy even if it were original price! It doesn’t seem like 4GB would be a lot of storage, however I’ve been told that it’s enough to store quite a bit of books.

    Love the convenience of not having to carry paperbacks any longer, yet have the lit background to read at night and in the car.

    No complains so far except maybe could do with better resolution and "whiteness". Wish the device came with its own lid to protect the screen and give an actual book like experience when opening ! It has certainly encouraged my kid to read a lot more though !
