The Kindle basically works like a flashdrive - you can drag/drop files to a "download" folder on it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1291652 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 13:44:23 +0000 fussygal 1291652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just bought DH a new Kindle Paperwhite for xmas and I'm soooo excited to give it to him. I have an iPad that I've read one or two books on, but the glare is awful so I don't think I'd read another one on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1291598 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 13:28:49 +0000 lavender 1291598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an older kindle with the keyboard </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1291597 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 13:28:19 +0000 lavender 1291597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: ohh can I get in on your book selection??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1288513 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 09:24:24 +0000 LuLu Mom 1288513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the cheapest Kindle and Love it! I thought I would miss paperbacks but don't at all! so much easier to read in bed with my Kindle and not worrying about the pages! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1288313 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 08:22:02 +0000 HappyBaker 1288313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Kindle too and LOVE it. </p> <p>@Bao - not sure if your library's site has this, but mine has a section on the ebook home page for "Recently Returned". This is where I find almost ALL the books I borrow, for some reason newer good books show up there as available whereas if you did a search for them you'd have to get put on the waiting list. </p> <p>Also - I just add like 10 books to my "hold" list so that I'm on the waiting list, and eventually they start being available, I always make sure to have a ton on my list, because otherwise I get tempted to buy tons of books on Amazon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1288310 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 08:20:23 +0000 hummusgirl 1288310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Woooo! I have an old school Kindle and love it. My library doesn't have every book I'd want to read (and some books have crazy long waiting lists) so I still check out regular books too, but I do try for a Kindle version first. A hint - if your library book is about to expire but you're not finished yet, you can turn off the Kindle wireless and it can't self-destruct. Sneaky but effective! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1288298 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 08:16:50 +0000 regberadaisy 1288298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: woohoo!!!!</p> <p>I have the original Nook.

Like I mentioned, there's some, but not all the books I would want to read :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1288253 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 07:47:40 +0000 mediagirl 1288253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yay! I have one of the original basic Kindle's. I love it!

They are in a totally separate section of the website though. Maybe your library has them somewhere else? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1287835 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 22:01:37 +0000 LindsayInNY 1287835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another old school Kindle! I have a bunch of illegally downloaded ebooks that have to be manually added to your Kindle if you're interested. I can email them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1287682 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 21:11:02 +0000 Bao 1287682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wheres_c: That would be great, thank you!

I looked at our libraries options and there are a couple of good ones, but not nearly as much. I guess I will need to be asking for e-books for gifts! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finally-joined-the-e-reader-club#post-1287662 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 21:02:28 +0000 pui 1287662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yay!

I have a kobo. It's the chapters version in Canada.

Amazon had a deal on Kindles today so DH bought me one as a Christmas gift. I'm pretty excited, but a little nervous...I'm hoping I like it as much as I do paper books! </p> <p>For fun, which e-reader do you have? </p>
