  • I have a kindle fire HD and love it. We got Alex's dad a kindle paper white for Father's Day but not sure how it is yet.

    I have the Kindle paperwhite 3G. I love it! You can adjust the backlight and it's easy to read outside. It has the e-ink and doesn't cause eye strain. I get the free books on amazon all the time. :-)
  • I have a nook glow light and love it.

    Kindle Paperwhite hands down. They (Amazon) have the most ebooks available and the built-in light is great because it's not backlit. In fact, if you are using it just for reading, don't get one of the backlit tablet-like ones. They cause eyestrain if you read on them too much.

    I have the kindle and the kindle fire hdx. I prefer the kindle for reading. I also love that it's attached to my amazon account (makes it easier for purchases and tracking). I also use the kindle app on my phone and I love that I can use any of the three during the day and it remembers where I am in the book.

    My only con with e readers is that it's a lot harder to flip back to find and reread a section. I often do that for clarity and I haven't figured out the best way to do it yet.

    Do you have the newest Kindle? They added this feature where you can flip back without losing your page. It's great!
  • Kindle paperweight! I have the kindle app on my iPad too. You can sync them so they know the last page/book you were on!
  • Ditto - if it's just for reading get the paperwhite.  I kind of want a tablet for other stuff but I know I'd end up in a wrestling match with Aiden over it all the time.  The paperwhite is boring so it's all mine :)
