Today I'm supposed to write about the last item I purchased. Well, I got groceries last night, but really the last "fun" thing I purchased was an e-book. I found out recently that I could download both the Kindle and Nook apps to my Droid cell phone - and I can buy books through Amazon.com or Barnes & Noble and read them on my cell phone, instead of having to buy an actual Kindle or Nook! So, I downloaded Kindle and then remembered I had a $50 B&N gift card, so downloaded the Nook. And bought a book!
It's one of the latest Nora Roberts books, but what I found really fun is that I automatically got three free books with the download. And they are: Pride and Prejudice (my favorite book), Dracula (which I've never read), Little Women (never read either - I know, shocking!), PLUS samples of two books I've never heard of: American Assassin and The Lost Hero (Heroes of Olympus).
Pretty cool! Definitely a good way to introduce the classics to people who absolutely MUST have the latest techno gadget! ;-)
You can download the classics for free on Kindle also. I like it. Now, I will never be stuck without reading material again! Woohoo!
