I held out for a long time but recently fell in love with the Kindle on a trip to Mexico. They make so much sense for travel. <br /><br />I've actually never read a romance novel.

I do have a traditional nonfiction that has recently come out--The Essential Guide to Grief and Grieving. However, self-publishing has reawakened my love of writing fiction and I'm having fun with the next book in the series, and I'm jotting down ideas for many more!<br /><br />Catherine, I'm keeping my favorites instead of loading them on my Kindle because I couldn't bear to get rid of them. Although I did load Pride and Prejudice because it was free.<br /><br />Kathryn, isn't that wonderful. I love having so many choices and not worrying about running out of book.<br /><br />Chelle, I could happily read my life away.Dr. Debra Hollandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04556327521528996385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093171382309456549.post-32682788212647134382011-11-25T16:14:37.879-08:002011-11-25T16:14:37.879-08:00I'd rather be reading than most other things a...I'd rather be reading than most other things as well.

I never have to worry that I'll finish the book I brought with me & have nothing else to read if I'm stuck in a doctors office waiting room too long. I've got several months of my TBR list already loaded on my eReader. However, since discovering online blog hops, my books to buy list has serious growth issues. I'm adding new books to the list way faster than I can afford to buy them.<br /><br />drainbamaged.gyzmo at gmail.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07564123676711805131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093171382309456549.post-33741096208489174482011-11-25T13:09:59.796-08:002011-11-25T13:09:59.796-08:00I want to put all my favorite books onto my kindle...I want to put all my favorite books onto my kindle but sadly some aren't available that way yet!
