The most important invention in your lifetime is…
While there any number of technological advances over the past 50 years, one of the most important to me is my Kindle.
I don’t sit and do nothing well…if you want me to stay put for any length of time, then give me something to do. Therefore, my Kindle is just as essential when I leave home as my wallet, inhaler, keys, and phone.
While I am waiting – bus, ride,etc – I pull out the Kindle and start reading. You should see some of the looks it draws in the checkout line. 😊
But that is not the only time I read…while eating, in bed at night, and sometimes just because I want to read – usually because I am anxious to see what is going to happen next and don’t want to put it down.
A rather small device at slightly larger tan a paperback book, but a lot thinner, the Kindle can hold a virtual library of books. Too bad they can’t start putting some of those heavy textbooks on Kindle; sure would be a lot easier hauling them to class.
Plus the Kindle has a text feature where you can make the print bigger for those books that insist on cramming as many tiny words as possible on a single page. you know, the publisher who thinks “War and Peace” ought to be the size of “Green Eggs and Ham”.
A true bookworm, I am also very picky about who and what I read. But one thing is for sure…I will not run out of books to read anytime too soon.
Now, if Amazon would just lower the prices of the Kindle editions of Alistair MacLean’s books…
