Hi. Someone gifted me a Kindle, and as an avid book lover, it sat dusty for quite some time. When our library closed for renovations this year, I dusted it off and have been using it with Libby and Amazon. I never had a tutorial about all the features, so I really appreciated how thorough and simple your instructions are. Thank you for providing this service to newbies like me!

The Kindle e-book reader looks very neat and professional. I like how it enlarges the page to full screen and has several cool features such as options for looking up words, highlighting, and adding notes.

I've been using, and enjoying, my Kindle for years and I'm still discovering new features. I've only just found out that I can have the time displayed at the top of the screen - handy when I tell myself that I'll stop reading and put the light out at 11pm. Also, the X-ray feature has some potentially useful benefits as it collates information about characters in the story, terms used in the text, clips of text that others have highlighted, and it also collects together all the images from the book if it has any, if it doesn't you'll just get the cover image.
