The Kindle

This may be the coolest invention ever. I just got it for Christmas (well, early Christmas), and it's SO COOL!

I was on the fence about E-readers for over a year. I wanted one, because I love books, but I didn't want one because I felt like I'd be betraying my books. But my boyfriend got one for me anyway, and knowing he was getting it for me (since he always feels the need to tell me what I'm getting), I started researching it. Anyway, it turns out there are hundreds of classics you can download for free!

So, anyway, I got the Kindle and I'm completely fascinated that the screen really, truly looks like paper. I can't get over it. Also, I was trying to turn it off and was wondering why the screen didn't go black. Duh. It doesn't do that.

And the other most incredible thing about the Kindle? When it goes to "sleep," the screen savers are famous authors!!!!!! I got Virginia Woolf. Who will I get next time? I don't know, but I'm excited as heck to find out!
