What did I pay for these books?  Well I paid around $8...sometimes a lot less.  The next book I read will be Cutting for Stone.  This book was recommended by a friend.  It is marketed on the Amazon website for $7.99.  When I order the book, it will be delivered within seconds of my order via my wireless connection (at home, in airports, Starbucks, etc.).

Senior citizens quit reading because they cannot see the print or because large print books are very heavy and cumbersome. If they are housebound for any reason, they can simply go to their Kindle wireless and order books from their living room.   Handheld ebook readers can be the answer to a prayer for them.  In a comparison of ebook readers on the wikipedia website someone has compiled graphs with all the information about the features of each model.  When you get ready to purchase one, satisfy yourself that you have picked the right one.  Many have features that I just do not want or need...Internet connection or a touch screen just is not something I would ever use.    I suppose that is why the Kindle has turned out to be the perfect choice for me.

Have a wonderful day!
