I have a Kindle Touch (my husband has the Fire, and while he likes it, he kind of wishes he'd purchased a Touch as well). I go through chunks of time where I don't read at all, but I'm working out certain things like sewing projects and spend my winding down (when I normally read) time contemplating issues then instead. But yes, when I do read, I definitely read. I've only purchased one book so far, and that was to purchase my husband's eBook to tell him if it downloaded correctly when he first installed it. The rest of them, I pick up for free because they're old. I've been enjoying catching up on books I've always wanted to read, and having a light gadget to hold has been nice. I have fibromyalgia, and as much as I love books, some of those huge heavy ones make it difficult to get comfortable and read for long amounts of time.
