    I was literally just looking online to buy a kindle as a gift to myself for getting into university, and then Sara uploads a video about a kindle. Either this is a sign or Sara can read minds from half way across the world.

    Kindle has no cons for me, i dont even read physical books anymore! Its lightweight, easy to travel with as you mentioned. My favorite is that you can read at night! Omg if anyone is thinking about purchasing a kindle, go for it! I find that reading on my ipad or phone strains my eyesight the kindle does not. ❤️

    A couple things to note for people kinda confused about the payment & book limit thing:
    -after you purchase your kindle you DONT have to may monthly unless you sign up for kindle unlimited which gives you thousands of books to read for free through your subscription. Otherwise if you don’t want that you just pay for every book you download
    -as far as a limit if you have the 8GB (base version) storage it will hold HUNDREDS of books but kindle unlimited books are limited to 20 at a time in your library. So if it’s telling you to delete one for another it’s because you have too many kindle unlimited books in your library!
    I know this was confusing for me at first so I want to help clarify for some. I HOPE THIS HELPS !!🥰

      Yes. I was going to comment the kindle unlimited books are similar to a library. It tells you to return them when you are done to add more (you just don't have a time limit).

      @@maidrav5019 they will take up the same amount of space as a book you purchased! but once you return it to KU, it will free up space. 8gb is a LOT with books though. you can have up to like 6000 books downloaded with that amount of storage. audiobooks are a diff story though

    kindle unlimited only allows u to borrow up to 20 books at a time so u will need to eventually swap BUT if u remove it from ur library and then a couple months later u want to reread it or whatever and download it back to ur library, ur highlights and annotations will still be there :) and another tip if ur like me and u download every book to ur library that's on ur tbr and u hit the 20 max, u can easily make a list instead (the button underneath "add to library") and put it all there! it acts as another little library and u can access the list right in the app on ur phone and easily add books to ur library whenever u want to read it!

    I feel like I need to put it out there since I don't see people mentioning it but you can also transfer books to your kindle :) I live in Serbia where I am not able to have an Amazon account or buy the books.
    Attach it to your PC/Laptop and I recommend converting PDF files into MOBI for a better experience and display of the book but there's many more formats for Kindle. You just copy paste your books into the downloads folder and bippity boppity boo :D it saves even more money if you are able to find books online for free

So I don’t think there’s anything you can do to change it😔 (I still love my kindle tho). I just bought a case so the screen is covered when I’m not reading!
