For those of you who don't know me personally, I received a Kindle for Christmas and am, to put it mildly, hopelessly addicted. I have so many books I want to read and am struggling with which to download first. One of my 2010 intentions (I am not a fan of resolutions) is to read 3 books per month, one nonfiction, one fiction, and one that is primarily educational/informational (i.e. books that are job-related, news-related, finance-related, you get the idea). This month I conquered these so far:
1. Nonfiction: Committed by Elizabeth Gilbert
2. Educational/Informational: Freakonomics
3. Fiction (downloading to my Kindle as we speak): Still Alice by Lisa Genova
I can't wait to get started on that last one and am starting to appreciate the Kindle...only $6.39 for that last read!
Happy Reading! Anyone care to share some favorites for next month?
Rock the Kindle

Oh the kindles intrigue me. How do you find reading it as compared to a real book?
I thought I would have a harder time getting used to it...but honestly, within a minute or two, I had become accustomed. The e-ink technology makes it look just like a real book. Sometimes I even catch myself trying to physically turn the page :) My fav feature is that I can highlight passages from everything I read and it automatically goes to Clippings file where I can refer to it whenever I like!
