What do you think about the Kindle/Nook? Do you like yours? If you don’t have one, do you want one?

Read the Kindle vs Nook comparison this week to see our take on the reading devices, and see below what our Facebook and Twitter followers had to say about them! 

“I bought myself a Kindle for Christmas and I love it. If I finish reading a book and I want to read the sequel or another book from that author all I have to do is go on to Amazon and look it up and download it and I have it in less than 5… seconds. You can also read a sample before you buy it to see if it is something that looks good. That way you don’t have to go to the store and try to find it. Saves on gas also!” — Facebook follower Jennifer Rothrock Bragdon 

“I have a kindle …love it!” — Facebook follower Mary Jane Newell 

“Love the kindle. Bought for hubby for xmas now I need one too. Never read so much as I do now.” — Facebook follower Nancy Wing

“I resisted getting a Kindle forever because I stubbornly love my books, but I used my dad’s once while waiting for a plane and got hooked. I still buy books when I know I’ll read it a hundred times or for collections, but it’s great to have the Kindle when it comes to travel and convenience. I got one of those special covers with the light attached to read without disturbing others.” — Twitter follower MustBeThursday 

“I don’t know what I would do without my Kindle! I started reading again, one of my real loves in life. Since I can send almost anything to my Kindle, I’m not stuck reading things on a glowing screen anymore. It’s amazing.” — Facebook user Frank Carroll 

“I have a kindle and LOVE it. I use it for fictional books and also for nonfiction school books.” — Twitter Follower Idget16 

“Love it! esp the apps so if I forget my Kindle I can still access on my Droid…can get a book instantly from anywhere.” — Twitter follower GirlOrangeCoat
