    It is extremely handy and easy to use. The library of books available on Amazon is extensive. The ability to have a device that can hold hundred of book in the palm of your hand is unparalleled.

    We purchased the Kindle as a gift for my sister and she stated the following: Love it, the Kindle is perfect. Holds tons of books, can easily adjust lighting and font size/style and battery life goes on for weeks without charging.

    The Kindle Paperwhite is about the size of a short paperback book. The glare free monochrome screen makes reading easy in any lighting situation. My one complaint is the size.

    The Kindle Paperwhite is a great device for reading in all lighting conditions. The battery life is amazing, lasts for weeks without charge. It also syncs easily to your Amazon account. Some cons about the device is that it is a bit on the slow side when your shopping around for books on the device and I wish it came with a headphone jack for whispersync.

    This is my second Kindle. The improvements over the older generation Kindles is huge. This Kindle is thin and light, I put it in my pocketbook and take it all over. The backlight is handy when needed. The screen clarity is excellent. Great device.

    I like to read and have a hugh number of books, really too many for the space. This will allow me to have, not only more books but allow me to more easily take the books with me. The paper white is easy to hold, carry, and use.

    Took it on vacation & loved it! Read on the beach with no problems as the screen is bright & the font can be made as big as you need..Easy to download books too. If you're looking for just a great little, very portable reader I highly recommend this Kindle.
