    I am so envious of you being able to swap books, mentally. I'm also a mood reader, but I'm also a "you must finish your current book before you can start another book" girly

      I’m not sure how it is when you or others read but when I do, it’s like a movie or tv show in my head and that’s how I treat my books, I don’t watch one show or movie all the way through sometimes and that’s how I read. One day I’m in the mood for a mystery, the next day a rom com etc etc. Try that and see if it works…

  • @Thetrilingualreader
    @Thetrilingualreader Před 5 měsíci +10

    I also find that the font being consistent in style and size across all books is helpful with the reading speed. Your brain doesn't have to make that slight shift between one book and the other every time.

    I have loved my new kindle! Thank you for sharing. I also hate ruining my books by dragging them around with me everywhere for them to go unread, this has been such a great purchase.

    Great review. Been loving my new Paperwhite too. It was a gift from my spouse so I wouldn’t have to keep struggling with small fonts on books. I just finished Fourth Wing as my first book on this kindle and now will try your rec of how does it feel. Fantasy and romance are some of my favs.
    To answer the question about covers, I just have the basic Amazon black cover that came with the kindle as a bundle package. It was a gift so I’m not picky 😃 It has the flip front cover that covers the screen when it’s closed but also turns on the kindle when I open the cover and off when I close it again. Very handy. Plus I’m a bit clumsy so I tend to drop technology so having that front protection for the screen is a must! I find I’m used to the extra weight so I never take the cover off.
    Looking forward to seeing more book reviews after I finish your rec.
    Thanks.

    about the ads u talked about, i dont have any on my kindle and never have, i dont know why? im not sure if i disabled it somehow on my setup or something because i watched lots of kindle tips before getting mine lol. but id definitely tell you to give that a look!

    i had the ads removed without paying, just talk to one of their customer service employee and ask if they can remove it for you, just tell them the ads are bothering you or something. it worked for me, they removed it without me having to pay. 😂

    Good points. May I ask: Do you have a protection shield on the display in addition to your cover? I love my Paperwhite but am a bit scared that the display is sensitive to get scratches quite easily

    • @taelormilan
      @taelormilan  Před 5 měsíci

      no, i don’t have a screen protector on it. i haven’t experienced any scratches on it yet though🥴

  • @user-wi5qi9tr3g

    Also- Instead of buying ebooks for your kindle, rent them from your library! It's an easy download and it's FREE!!

  • @user-wi5qi9tr3g
    @user-wi5qi9tr3g Před 4 měsíci +1

    You don't have to see the ads. I have changed the settings on mine to show the cover of the book I'm currently reading. I would definitely check and see if you have that feature!

    • @Nixiss
      @Nixiss Před 5 měsíci +1

      That’s only available on specific models. For the paperwhite, you have to have the signature edition to be able to set it to show the cover of the book.

    • @kenzieloux
      @kenzieloux Před 5 měsíci +2

      Your kindle needs to be ad free to show the book cover tho

      @AubreyFaye Před 4 měsíci

      You can ask customer service to take the ads off for free. At least, they did that for me! I guess it just depends how nice you are in chat and how the representative is feeling that day.

      I don't! I honestly didn't even think about that. So far it hasn't scrattched the screen, but I think I may get a screen protector just in case.

    bestie you don't even need to highlight the words. If you have word wise turned on (I think that's what its called), it will automatically log every word you view the definition of + organises it into flashcards to review later. Idk why more people don't talk about it!!

    The store on the Kindle is not great. It is much easier to browse on a PC and send the books to your library. TBH, the whole UI needs to be redesigned - it is clunky and things shift with each update...

  • @CaptainThugRdx
    @CaptainThugRdx Před 4 měsíci +3
