    Great ereader. The only problem is putting books of your own on it. It can be a bit of a pain.

    I like the convenience of a kindle. This is my first one. I feel it has a slow response to opening the book when locked as well as slow when turning a page. Overall, a good purchase.

    Been through a number of Nooks. This reader is much more reliable. Keeps its page, doesn’t go to sleep while I am reading. Much happier.

    This Kindle is much thinner than the original paper white. You definitely need the cover to help with putting it to sleep
