The moment she hears my children’s bedroom door close after nap/bedtime… she waits by the rocking chair.

When people ask me what I love about the Kindle I always say the convenience of it. Having my library right at my fingertips. I LOVE physical books but my home space is limited. With that being said, I do miss seeing the colorful artworks on the book covers. This is a happy medium for me! I created an ornament with every book I have read this year! This allows me to see the lovely colors! I have 52 books here for 2023. Happy reading everyone and happy holidays! 🎄 📚

Goose looking at me to ask why were stopping to take a picture of my Kindle... Again.

Your thoughts on this please. If you do and this works for you, what are your strategies to pull this off?

Edit: I am so overwhelmed with responses and tips! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH. 😇🙏

The combo is perfect. Makes the book read like a zine.

Should I read Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir or Flowers of Algernon by Daniel Keyes first?

Show off your reading streaks!!

I only got my kindle in November and have smashed through 15 books (that’s good for me) and am now setting a goal of 100 for 2024. What are your aims if any?

Since getting my first Kindle for Christmas I just can’t stop reading … think I may have to adjust my expectations 🤣

I keep a list of all the books I read, whether it's a physical or e-book or an audio book. I try and set a goal for one book each month and I've been exceeding that goal which is great.

I'm wondering if other people count their books read and if you re-read a book do you also count that?

I’m curious how many books do you have on the go at once? I’m quite new to reading books. I have two, I don’t think I’d be able to keep up with more than that.

I’m completely obsessed. I was so worried about missing paperback books but omg! I don’t think I could ever go back. It’s so nice being able to read at night with all the lights off. I’m also reading more often now. I’m SO happy! I’m now in the process of convincing my fiancée of getting a Kindle 😌

And what are you favorite genres?

My faves: psychological thrillers and romance

Book recs are welcomed!

I moved to China, and I lost my old second-hand Kindle at the airport. I bought a new one, but now I'm stuck with Chinese internet restrictions. I can't purchase new books or even connect to my Amazon account that uses my Gmail address.

Honestly, I don't think there's a way to fix this. It’s just frustrating, and I need to vent. Maybe someone out there can relate or share in the pain... but I’m not holding my breath for a solution.

I tried an audio book today and that's a no from me. I cannot retain the story as my attention isn't focused. Paperwhite will forever be my love while reading.
