NOOK BOOK


In March, I received a Nook Color for my anniversary. I wasn't sure how I would enjoy reading a book on a small tablet. I absolutely love my NOOK. It is more than an e-reader. I can put music, pictures and games on it. I can even watch Youtube videos. In the near future, it will have flash capability so I will be able to watch hulutv and netflix.
I find myself reading much more than before and that is hard to believe because I was always reading. The best part is it is in color. When I download a magazine, it is in color. I see it as I would if I had the hard copy in my hands.

There are several e-readers out there so do your homework before buying one.
1. Determine what you will use it for: just reading or more
2. Review the accessibility of books from book stores, libraries and sharing capabilities.
3. Talk to different people about the e-reader they have.
4. Go "play" with each of them at the book stores.

I dare you to take a look at the Nook for reading a book and you will be like a fish on a hook.

I was really nervous about how a "traditionalist" voracious reader like you would respond to the Nook. You are definitely the poster child for all the "page-turners" out there who have been reluctant to take the leap to the Nook side. I'm glad you're enjoying it!
