kindle girlies i need advice

hey, so i’ve been trying to read more. honestly physical books can be expensive, out of stock, or you run out of room for places to put them.

I’m wondering.. if I have a Kindle, maybe I can have many books to read on there without having to carry many books. i’m looking for more convenience.

however, for me there’s a different feeling about reading when you’re able to flip through physical paper pages. I like that it’s on paper. I can crease certain pages that I find important to me and highlight dialogues that are important to me as well.

if you have a kindle, have you found it useful for you and do you still get excitement from turning the pages? is highlighting and bookmarking easy?

which kindle do you have or which kindle would you recommend for me based off what I’ve expressed

I don’t think I need anything fancy and I think I would just buy a used one! is it worth it?

edit: i didn’t expect this post to do so well!! thanks for all the feedback 🥹❣️

... Read moreReading preferences are unique, and many people face dilemmas when choosing between physical books and digital alternatives like the Kindle. If you've been contemplating a switch, you're not alone. Kindles offer a remarkable level of convenience; you can store an entire library on one device, making them an attractive option for avid readers who struggle with space. However, the tactile experience of flipping through pages, highlighting passages, and making notes in the margins is something that many cherish about physical books. You might find that Kindle devices like the Kindle Paperwhite or the Kindle Oasis deliver a satisfying reading experience, complete with adjustable backlighting and waterproof capabilities, without being overly fancy. You also can enjoy features like one-click dictionary look-ups and the ability to adjust text size and brightness for comfort. For first-time Kindle users, consider buying a used device to save costs while still getting a great reading experience. Moreover, don't forget to explore the vast library of eBooks available, often at lower prices compared to their physical counterparts. If you're already a Kindle user, sharing your thoughts about how the device fits into your reading lifestyle can be invaluable to others considering the switch. Discussing features such as ease of highlighting and bookmarking can also help potential buyers decide whether to make a purchase. In the end, it's about finding what works for you—whether that's an e-reader or the comforting feel of a physical book in your hands.

Personally I loveeeee the physical book and I prefer the physical book but…. I did buy a kindle because we go on our boat and to the beach often and I didn’t want my books to get ruined. I also made sure my kindle was water resistant anddddd I have read way more books solely because I ALWAYS have my kindle on me, makes it more convenient I still prefer physical and I still will buy physical and my digital books. If anything it’s made my book habit a bit more unhinged because I buy the physical copies or my favorite books😂😂
