After a year plus of dragging my sorry behind, I finally settled on the Kindle 3 which was finally delivered a couple days ago. On Lovely Wicked‘s release day, actually — oh happy, happy day. With zero time to play, I headed directly to the Kindle store and after cursing at how it’s organized (who thought that mess was a good idea? hopped-up crack monkeys?), I downloaded a few new books. Ah, heaven.
Now? Brutal reality.
I have — no lie — hundreds of books loaded onto my laptop. Converting all those files and sending them to the Kindle? Nightmare. This is what I get for procrastinating on buying an ereader, though. I really didn’t want to do it. Thanks to the day job, I haul my laptop with me everywhere so for me, an ereader would just weigh my carryall down even more. (Like the thing doesn’t weigh more than I do already?) But holy cow, I love my Kindle. I can sprawl in unladylike abandon whilst reading again, woo hoo! No more squinting at the harsh lighting, too…It’s wonderful.
We may enter a new ice age before I find the time to load my laptop library into the blasted thing, though. And I suspect my organizational skills will make even the crack monkeys look good. 😉
