Hi Mossa,
If you go on to the Amazon site, there are lots of free books to download. A lot of them are classics, but, hey ho, I never read them when younger, so why not now. There are a few by Homer as well, Odysseus and The Illiad, both free.
Enjoy!

I didn't really want a Kindle, I'm a "book" person. However, I was given one as a Christmas present and am totally converted! I will be taking it on holiday. It currently has 35 books in it, a mixture of thrillers, factual, biographies, old favourites, classics, and "Little Women" and "What Katy Did" - going to relive a little bit of my childhood you see! Will take up no luggage space or weight. I can chop and change books depending on my mood, and can add books at any time (they are also usually a good bit cheaper than from a bookshop), and as already stated, lots are free. Long live Kindle!! Moyra

I wanted a Kindle for Christmas so I could take it on holiday but my hubby got me a Sony reader but have not got my head round how to use it yet and I go away in 3 weeks

Kindles are no problem in bright sunshine. I also thought they might be. You can also adjust text size and line spacing if you want to.
Like Moyra I have a mixture of all sorts of books on mine.

I agree with you on that C4owner. The Millenium trilogy was a superb read and the final book was absolutely brilliant.
The Kindle, to which I have also been converted, can be read anywhere that you can read a book. Bright sunshine is not a problem.
I still love my 'proper' books but the Kindle is just so portable and as has been said, you can take thousands of books on holiday with you with no weight or space issues. I love it!
Trisa.

Millenium Trilogy fantastic, but don't read either Trespass or Room, far too deep for holiday reading. I'm just reading Keeper of Secrets by Judith Cutler, very good but written in old English. I have A matter of Trust by Robin Pilcher and The Other Family by Joanna Trollopeo to take next week and hopefully swap when I've read them.
