Nook

Christmas was a few days ago and I got this wonderful new toy. I had been looking at it for some time, but I just didn't have the money for it. After much thought, and doing my own research, it landed on the Christmas list and then under the tree (yay!!), and I finally got the one tool that is going to help this blog flourish...a Nook. I opted for the simple e-ink $79 Black Friday version, and after reading my first book, I LOVE IT <3

It has a small screen with the amazing technology of e-ink: simple to read and it doesn't hurt my already failing eyes. It's small and light-weight and just works. The small screen and the broken up pages make it seem like you're flying through a book, page by page, and in fact, it was the first time I sat down to read a book for more than a couple hours. The best part is that it apparently can last about two months on one charge. It may not have the apps or the show and tell of an iPad, but for book lovers or that that wish to become one, it's the perfect thing for you.
