I never thought I'd want to read a book "onscreen," but Kindle has changed my mind. It's lightweight and easy to use. Best of all, you can mark spots to which you want to return--no more flags all over the place. You'll want the cover, too. It's also lightweight, folds back behind the Kindle while you're reading, and protects the screen.
The wireless downloads are relatively inexpensive. Imagine having your own portable bookstore. And--more than 1.8 million free, out-of-copyright, pre-1923 books are available to read on Kindle, including titles such as The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Pride and Prejudice, and Treasure Island.
Read about 14th century Spain
Meanwhile, do you need a soap opera in your life, one set in 14th century Spain? Here's what I'm reading right now:
It's a bestseller about a poor man who has more troubles than Job. The story is long (about 600 pages) but engaging. Plus you can learn all you never needed to know about Barcelona's history.
