I have a Kindle Fire tablet and Kindle Paperwhite. I read books exclusively on my Paperwhite, since it is far easier on my eyes, has a back light and the print is fantastic. It fits in my jeans pocket, purse, and pretty much anything else I carry. Since I read a lot, it is the best thing for me as I am trying to do my part to save the trees and lessen my environmental footprint. Visit an electronics store and have fun learning!
