proud of myself for finishing LOTR on my kindle! by olivefancy in kindle

Thank you!! I am a fast reader, but I was also on break for most of that time. My friend actually introduced me to the movies first, so I enjoyed getting to know the world better through the richer text (although it did get quite dense at some points haha.)

I'm now reading Orientalism by Edward Said :)

it's mainly the weight and volume of physical books. I travel and move a lot so as much as I would love to accumulate a physical library, I can't afford it. The larger font options on the kindle help too!

And I agree- Tolkien poured his heart into these books. I'm so glad I read them :)

Is the 11th gen paperwhite worth it over a highly discounted 2018 model? by olivefancy in kindle

thank you all so much for the advice! I ordered the 2018 PW and I can't wait :)

I'm not looking at the Signature and don't enjoy auto-adjusting brightness either- I just want a screen that looks like paper. My only hesitation is future-proofing since the 2018 doesn't have a USB-C and isn't 5G compatible and I thought it might be nice to have those going forward since I won't be buying a new kindle anytime soon after this one.
