Have you checked eBay for a used Paperwhite. I have had mine since they first came out and they are much easier on the eyes.

Isn't the Fire like an iPad that has back lighting?

Yar, matey!

You may get used to the writing as you progress on!

I'm in the place where we cant actors a lot of books so I do use the online check out from the library but I also go the thr eretailets and download the free books. Most are first books in a series and many are quite good.

I agree as well. As a general principle, I try to avoid most books that spend a long time near the top of Amazon's best seller list. I'm not the audience for those.

I don't remember much about the book. I read it about a year ago. I remember liking the first 50 pages or so, but once he met the alien creature it went downhill fast. It would be an entertaining children's book I guess.

Check state and national libraries and museums. It is becoming more common for them to offer digital library memberships. Most local libraries offer digital loans or book deliveries for people that can't visit

That’s why you read Wheel of Time so you can always keep reading.

oh cool I will check the book out thanks 🙏 Who is the writer

>The only way I can really pass them on is if I walk to the “little free library” thing in a nearby park and donate them there

You could also post them to a local free giveaway group if you're online, say on Facebook or somewhere. A "Buy Nothing" group for your area would be a great start. You can just do a no-contact "porch pickup" if you wanted.

Separately, I think the Kindle would be a great choice for you, with a card to your local library, and some other libraries that people have suggested on this page, you could be in great shape through Libby.

You can get a used Kindle off eBay for under $20 if you want a dedicated reader, but these days you can have stuff delivered to mobile and desktop apps such as the Kindle app.

This is how I felt when I finished the Aubrey-Maturin series. It was like a lost an old friend

Ebooks. Kindle unlimited. Libby app. Requesting eARCS to review on Net Galley.

U can get tons of books online for free. The library even has an online collection u can get books from

Portlandia's Battlefield Galactica episode is exactly this 😂

I get this all the time...I call it book withdrawals...best cure is to find a new book to obsess over

Wait until Prime Day and they practically give the Kindles away. Then you can use the library to check out Kindle books without having to drive there. The vast majority of books I read are checked out of the library and sent to my Kindle without leaving my house. I only buy hard copies when I know I will want to keep the book.

I have the Kindle Paperwhite. No glare and it won't give you a headache like your Fire did. Also, you can probably trade the Fire in for a discount on the Kindle. I always send my old one in and get $20 or so off the new one.

No worries. And apologies if I made you uncomfortable — I assumed that the misspelling was deliberate.

I buy a ton of books on eBay. Most for less than $5 with free shipping.

Goodwill or a thrift store. I always feel good when I find a book I really want for $5 or less. Just recently I bought a book that had the original receipt still in it, $20 at B&N, $2.50 at Goodwill. In great condition too, like new.
