I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You can also download fic and sideload it.

Our wings are not tired.

I do like the ease of being able to just email things to my Kindle.

You can absolutely add fic to your kindle. I have several comfort reads on there. I keep a lot of comfort reads (fic or regular books that i read and re-read) on there, with newer or temporary stuff on the iPad.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I loved my Kindle Oasis because I found it easier to hold, but when it broke, I bought the most basic model and it has worked out fine once I put a pop tab in the back. I love it for reading in bed because the light isn't enough to keep TCG awake and I can read until I fall asleep, which is the only thing that works for me. I do have a kindle app on my ipad which I mainly use for graphic novels and cookbooks.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I like the physical design of the Kindle Oasis and adding stuff to it that doesn't come from Amazon seems to be pretty easy (I haven't done it a whole lot, but I apparently expect it to be much more complicated than it actually is and am pleasantly surprised every time). Bluetooth only for audio, which is ok for me but something to consider if you have plug in headphones you love or something.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I am too lazy to use multiple devices and just read on my phone (or, very very occasionally, the in-browser Kindle reader).

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I move around from room to room with five different devices, a hardcover, and magazines. It's a good thing I have a little helper in the form of ltc.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I have both the Kindle app and the Nook app on my iPad, as well as Hoopla and Libby for borrowing ebooks.

I like using Hoopla for audiobooks because it is easy to use in my car.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Love the Kindle Paperwhite. My only wish is that it was easier to (or, indeed, realistically possible to legally) get UK editions of books where I know they've Americanized the text.

My paperbacks take up a lot of space and I can't read them in the dark.
