I have been coveting a Kindle since they first came out but honestly, I never even considered owning one. It's just a really pricey item that neither Kevin nor I would have thought about buying. But, apparently Kevin's employer has much deeper pockets. They presented him with one for FREE as a thank you gift for some training that he provided. Because he is the best husband in the universe, he immediately regifted it to me.
Now, normally, I am a very generous person. If Kevin offered me something like this, I would usually insist that he keep it. I did not do this with the Kindle because I was afraid he would accept my offer. I'm not proud of this. I'm just telling the truth. I just friggin love this thing and it has made me selfish.
I am still too cheap to buy many books but Amazon has an ever changing selection of free downloads. Most of the free books are Christian fiction and nonfiction. I have not generally been a big fan of Christian fiction. (I usually find it cheesey and boring.) But I have been happily surprised at some of the books I have read so far. Having ten to twenty books to read at all times is like my nerd dream come true.
