Free Reading Response for the week of January 17th: My Kindle

For Christmas, my cousin bought me a kindle. At first, I didn't like the kindle, but now I am enjoying it. I didn't like the idea of reading books from electronic devices and it scares me that real books may becoming less popular. Nevertheless, I find it easy to carry around one slim electronic device with a library of books downloaded on it. A weekend ago, when I was sick, I spent some time reading ahead on my kindle and figuring out how it works. I downloaded only one book so far.  I'm not certain of the capacity on my kindle, but there is a numerous amount of my cousin's books that were synced on there before it was given to me. I'm still trying to figure out how I can delete some of those books that I am not interested in reading so that I can increase the capacity on it for my own books. One feature that comes in handy is the highlighting and being able to search words in the dictionary. Now, whenever I highlight certain parts, I think that I can go to a certain page where it shows all of my highlights together. This will help me highlight parts that I want to mention in my reading responses. My view of the kindle has changed since I first got it!
