The Reading Thread
mare:
If you are looking for an e-reader, my Nook is still working great and I’ve had that for a really long time. I wanna say for at least 8 years. I never thought I’d read anything electronically but I got one with all the B&N gift cards I received from my students that year. I do have to admit, I still tend to prefer reading a physical book over using the Nook, but it comes in handy that you can just buy them and there they are ten seconds later.
RokofAges75:
Yes, so convenient! I'm glad your Nook has lasted so long. The only thing I'm not sure about with a Nook is if all the Kindle books I've already bought are compatible with it. I think they're different formats. I would want something I could use the Kindle app with so I can still access my collection.
mare:
Yeah, I’m not sure if they are compatible. They probably aren’t. Bummer!
nicksgal:
Since you did a nice google search for me, I did a quick one on this. You would have to convert them to a epub file, which seems like a hassle, but is doable. You can get the kindle app on several devices as long as they're sold and/or supported by amazon, so maybe that's the route you go to look for a new e-reader?
RokofAges75:
Thanks! That's why I thought, that Nook wasn't compatible. I have converted some of my stories into e-reader format, and I knew Nook and Kindle had different file extensions.
