When I was a wee child, I loved books I took them everywhere with me, the bathroom, the open fields, the dining room, friends houses. I guess you get the picture where ever there was a book there was a very anti-social young girl. My dinner would go cold while I pored over each page of fantasy my book offered, I would escape into each magical world, I became one of the Little Women, I was always the beautiful bride in the Mills & Boons novels, I was the victim in the “Blood Line” and I became “Jane Eyre” a timeless heroine. I never had a library I could visit to loan books, instead I would borrow from friends, family and strangers. Immediately I saw anyone with a book, I would plead with my eyes mercilessly until their book was within my hands. Looking back I always wished that there was a way to keep the books that formed my childhood. I always wished there was a way in which I could keep them from mold, mildew and rot.
When I heard of the Kindle, I was intrigued, I did my research, I read reviews, and then I did more research, then when I saw it was going to be my own virtual library which I can take all over the world, I decided to plead with my eyes, I pleaded all day and almost all night, my eyes did their charm, every time I turned and pleaded with my eyes I could see DH melting. It fit within our budget, it fit within my wish list and most of all it fit everything I could ever want to read. This Christmas, I have been turned in to an anti-social young girl all over again, I got my wish, I got my Kindle.
