I find the kindle touch easy to hold, intuitive to use and lighter than a book. The E Ink is easier to read than my computer screen and it's quicker to flip to the next page than actual paper! 


As a side effect, I may be blogging less in the near future. I'm 82% done with the third book of the Song of Ice and Fire series, A Storm of Swords, by George R. R. Martin and I cannot wait to read The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins soon! 


I'm also excited to use the Kindle Owners' Lending Library!
