I hear alot of good things about the Kindle. My aunt loves it. I'm not quite sold though >.< I'm too fond of being able to judge the character of a book by its cover and size and font and such. =P

They don't show book covers on them?!?!? D= They do show book covers, but some of them are not the same cover as the original paperback and they are not in color. I love the cover for "Lover Avenged" by J.R. Ward in paperback, but on my kindle I only got the name of the book and the dagger symbol as a cover.

I like that you can have your whole library with you on a Kindle, but that's the only thing I really like about it. Having one would be nice if I travel a lot, but I don't, so I don't think I'll ever get one. Still a very nice idea for frequent flyers especially.

Hi, Here is a link for a website with some other free e-books www.suvudu.com/freelibrary/#9780440240983 Here are some of the books available. ***UPDATE: If you dont have an e-reader click on link to read "DarkFever" from your computer a1018.g.akamai.net/f/1018/19025/1d/randomhouse1.download.akamai.com/19025/freelibrary/darkfeversuvudu.pdfDarkfever by: Karen Marie MoningMacKayla Lane's life is good. She has great friends, a decent job, and a car that breaks down only every other week or so. In other words, she's your perfectly ordinary twenty-first-century woman. Or so she thinks...until something extraordinary happens. When her sister is murdered, leaving a single clue to her death-a cryptic message on Mac's cell phone-Mac journeys to Ireland in search of answers. The quest to find her sister's killer draws her into a shadowy realm where nothing is as it seems, where good and evil wear the same treacherously seductive mask. She is soon faced with an even greater challenge: staying alive long enough to learn how to handle a power she had no idea she possessed-a gift that allows her to see beyond the world of man, into the dangerous realm of the Fae... As Mac delves deeper into the mystery of her sister's death, her every move is shadowed by the dark, mysterious Jericho, a man with no past and only mockery for a future. As she begins to close in on the truth, the ruthless Vlane-an alpha Fae who makes sex an addiction for human women-closes in on her. And as the boundary between worlds begins to crumble, Mac's true mission becomes clear: find the elusive Sinsar Dubh before someone else claims the all-powerful Dark Book-because whoever gets to it first holds nothing less than complete control of the very fabric of both worlds in their hands... Full Moon Rising by: Keri ArthurA rare hybrid of vampire and werewolf, Riley Jenson and her twin brother, Rhoan, work for Melbourne's Directorate of Other Races, an organization created to police the supernatural races-and protect humans from their depredations. While Rhoan is an exalted guardian, a.k.a. assassin, Riley is merely an office worker--until her brother goes missing on one of his missions. The timing couldn't be worse. More werewolf than vampire, Riley is vulnerable to the moon heat, the weeklong period before the full moon, when her need to mate becomes all-consuming... Luckily Riley has two willing partners to satisfy her every need. But she will have to control her urges if she's going to find her brother...Easier said than done as the city pulses with frenzied desire, and Riley is confronted with a very powerful--and delectably naked--vamp who raises her temperature like never before. In matters carnal, Riley has met her match. But in matters criminal, she must follow her instincts not only to find her brother but to stop an unholy harvest. For someone is doing some shifty cloning in an attempt to produce the ultimate warrior--by tapping into the genome of nonhumans like Rhoan. Now Riley knows just how dangerous the world is for her kind--and just how much it needs her. Kiss of Midnight by Lara AdrianNew York Times bestselling author Lara Adrian unleashes a dark new breed of vampire in her evocative and thrilling Midnight Breed series. Part human, part otherworldly, the Breed has lived among humankind for thousands of years, maintaining a tentative peace built on secrecy, power, and the dark justice carried out by the formidable warriors of the order. There other great free e-books in that website... Check them out
