I was just wondering if anyone here has the nook? So we might share books from time to time.

The nook is a barnes and noble e-reader. Unlike the Kindle you can share books (if they allow) with other nook readers.

Youcan pretty much put any book on it if the publisher allows e-books. I like for the boat, or when out of town because you can carry a ton of books in one simple book.

I think you'll love it. I know i do I have read more books now since I've got it in March, and just bought 1 book because I loved the first one.

Yes I have checked into that, but haven't needed to go there yet as I have mainly downloaded free books. I think once a week they post a new book or two to read.

Are the books that you download for free older books or do they have more recent titles?
