I adore my Kindle e-ink reader. I don’t see the point in the Kindle Fires. If I wanted a tablet, I’d buy an actual tablet that would let me buy and upload any app from the Google Play or Apple stores. It’d be cheaper and have more versatility (and could even run a Kindle app!). But I *highly* recommend the e-ink and paperwhite Kindles! It really is as good as reading a book (no glare), and is so much easier on the eyes. Plus the battery life is good for 30 days (if you’re doing 45 min or so a day of reading). Linda O Cummins
