Kindle arrived an hour ago and went on charge. Had worried about "setting up the wifi" - pushed one button and all was well.
But what book to introduce myself to this new technology?
For some unknown reason I hit Winnie-the-Pooh. No idea why. Probably because it was free and I thought it would be a trivial giggle.
I was and am blown away, gob smacked and totally wowed!
I did not know that the illustrations would be included, or that they would be rendered so clearly and wonderfully.
I could not believe how easy it was to start a "kiddies book" and be unable to stop reading.
Having downloaded loads of classics with grand plans of going all intelligentsia, I may just stay in 100 acres wood and revel in the joys of timeless master-class penmanship.
If you get a moment and are thinking "what to try next" please, please download Winnie-the-Pooh.
I honestly don't care what happens now. Reading Winnie has justified buying a Kindle. The rest is just gravy :)
