Do you have a kindle? And if so how do you like it? 👀 also here is everything I bought:
Pop socket: amzn.to/44euJOo
Stickers: amzn.to/3CIoIxP
Kindle paperwhite: amzn.to/3PvdIeP
I have two 👀. One for work and travel and another stays safe at home 😂.
just bought mine 😍😍😍😍
Yes! I just got the same exact one you did last week. I’ve been reading The Mind*uck Series on it. I love it!!
As a classical paperback lover, I adore my purple Kindle… So easy and comfortable to use, everywhere and anytime…. Money well spent 🎉😉
Kisses from Europe 😊😉
PS: I adore Yours truly…. A book to remember 🥰🥰🥰 I love Jacob and Briana❤❤❤❤
No...can't afford one yet but maybe one day idk
Life hack: you can send PDF and EPUB files to your Kindle too incase you have any ebooks downloaded that way! ;)
So wait- if I download free book pdf’s from my phone, I can transfer it to my kindle too? But then like whats the point of kindle if I can read from phone or ipad? Genuine question.
@@Someone-zk9tbso that you won’t cause yourself to much eye-strain
@@Someone-zk9tb The Kindle is made specifically for reading, which is why it has an e-ink screen which looks very close to paper, so it doesn't have that glare of a phone screen that might make your eyes hurt. It also has no distractions, like notifications popping up on your screen, and the size of the screen looks more like a page of a book, so it's more square than a phone screen. Also as a reader, personally I love having a special place for my books, that is not just an app on my phone. There are probably a lot more reasons
How do you do it? I have a bunch of books downloaded to my iPhone
@@TheeNiasend it to kindle app or kindle email there’s loads of videos on it
KU is DEFINITELY worth it and whoever told you they only have books people don’t want to read is crazy! Get it!
Agreed! I've read so many good and well known books on there saving me tons of money.
I agree!!! It’s so worth it and they have a lot of books people read
I totally agree! There are books you can only get on kindle unlimited that I want to read! Going to upgrade my current kindle!
Factsss
I agree!! I been using KU for almost 3 years and is worth every penny!! This is where I find all these new indie romance authors. Mostly all my romance authors are in KU and what’s great is I read the book in KU first if I love them I buy the paperback to add in my bookcase.
I like that you went shopping for a book shelf and came back with a Kindle..bc that’s what happened to me too😂😂 I love my Kindle and it’s the best decision I made!
this is EXACTLY what happened 😩 😭
Girl ! Get all the library cards and send the books from Libby to your Kindle. Life hack ! That’s what I’m doing in general because I’ve decided I only want to own books I absolutely love. And I’m not here for buying the ebook AND the physical.
This is what I do too!!
Wait! Do you get cards from other towns/libraries!?
@@jamie_dag yes!! Check your state and others. In Ohio, you can get a card from any library as long as you can prove you are a resident. Maybe it’s like that everywhere 🤷🏾♀️
How do you get more than one?
At least in Florida you use your id and the water or electric
Kindle paperwhite is so worth it. I only buy physical books if its an absolute fave but generally Kindle is so convenient and especially at night, it's so easy to read on.
Hi, I just ordered for my very first Kindle (Paperwhite 11th Gen). I am ridiculously confused about which power adapter I can use to charge it 😅. Would a Samsung adapter work? I am just incredibly paranoid about the wattage). Any help would be great. Thanks! 😅😅
@@LowKey93 i use my ipad charger for the kindle, 20watts is fine
@@LowKey93 any android adapter is fine tbh
"I'm glad I have a problem" 💀 the scream I scrumpttttt.
😭😭😭
stumbled across this video bc i'm looking into buying a kindle myself and i just want to say i love your energy and style of video editing! you have such a warm personality and genuinely brightened my day :')
Oh my god!! Same feelings
Kindle unlimited is def worth it!! 📚Although you may not get ALL the books you want for free, most will come at a discount. 😊
welp, it looks like I'll be spending more money then 😭. thanks for the heads up!
@@khalilahd. more, but less 😏 ya know loll
Wait for a trial offer. They run them regularly. Ex: two free months, and then you can try it.
I bought a regular kindle 2022 and I am in LOVE. I've been watching videos like these for over a year and wanted it so bad. I am a big reader and have been reading on my old Samsung tablet, but the kindle is a whole upgrade from it. It no longer hurts to read for long stretches of time and it feels so nice to have a device devoted to reading. Plus I'm saving so much money reading because I get all my books online for free! I'm so glad I bought it.
ALSO for the girlies who want to save a bit of cash, just get a Kindle Kids and exit the profile. That's what I did and I saved $40.
Hey! Ik it's been 6 months since u wrote this comment, but I just wanted to ask you, how did you get the books online for free? Cus usually I have to pay for the books individually or through kindle unlimited, but is there another way to get books for free? Thanks.
@@leenbarakat7806you can get Libby which connects to ur library
I need a kindle because I can’t find any good books on my shelf and I can’t bring a lot of books with me on my trips
You're such a ray of sunshine! You definitely convinced me to get a paperwhite! I've been wanting to get back into reading and was maybe wanting this to compact everything into a kindle and you SOLD me! Your personality is amazing and I'm a new subscriber lol.
Omg it’s so worth it I think you’ll love it Phil!! Also welcome 😅 I’m happy to have you here ☺️🫶🏽
@khalilahd. well ya sold me on it! Lol. Thanks again! You're amazing and your smile and personality are LIFE!
This is the exactly the type of cozy, ASMR of tech reviews, for the Kindle I was looking for! Thoroughly enjoyed your video and am also awaiting my first Kindle! So excited.
Kindle Unlimited has a bunch of popular books, stuff people's talking about or stuff you'd see on TikTok. But the thing I also really love is I feel like it encourages you to give things a try sometimes that you otherwise wouldn't have ever known about or heard of
Welcome to the Kindle family! And those people LIED to you! Almost all the popular books ie romance, TikTok etc are available through KU! So worth it! ❤❤❤
Girl I am CONVERTED!! After reading all the comments I’m definitely getting it 😅❤
I got this Kindle for my 8 year old daughter in the same color, for Christmas 2024. For being a pro reader! She does good at reading SO MUCH that I had to reward her so this was one of her gifts. Her happiness when opening it made me know I did something right. :)
Im one of the „got a kindle because during the Amazon prime days sale because everyone on booktok said it LITERALLY CHANGED MY LIFE“ and what can I say… it really did! I’m back in my reading era, haven’t been for 8 years 😢
I also love the "how long u have left in the chapter". By clicking the bottom left corner in the normal page view u can choose this or other things to be shown there at all time. It motivates me to be like "just one more chapter"
I too am a physical book girly but i’ve had my kindle for 6 months now and I love it! I find myself reaching for it more and more! I read much faster on it and it’s great for reading at night in bed! Get KU it’s amazing and has so many popular books and it usually has a 3 month free trial!!
I just ordered mine, it comes tomorrow! I’ve always been a physical book person as well, but after watching your video and seeing how excited you are to decorate yours, I’m even more excited for mine!
This is how I felt when I transitioned from physical books to my iPad. Not the biggest fan of the kindle app but the books app has my heart.
i also love the apple books app it's so good, and the curling page animation makes reading on there so fun !!
OMG SAME before I was so adamant on only read physical books but when Im tight on money I resort to ebook and I love it more than I think I could. Im glad for the transition😂🎉
You got a kindle just in time. June 30th is stuff your kindle day. Romance books are on sale that day
I ordered my first Kindle (Paperwhite) in Denim and love it. I live at the beach, so I love the fact that I can read outside on it. I download my books from the library and still read physical books also.
That’s what I was curious about is how much I could get books from the library. I still deciding . Thanks for your comment.
I've been a reader since I was five or six, back in 1970 or so, and I've always loved paper books. But as I got older, I learned to love my Kindles; I can carry as many books as I want when I go on vacation, and it solves some of my space problems.
I think you will also grow to love your Kindle. HAVE FUN!
Yes! It’s the best ☺️
Kindle Unlimited is truly worth every cent. Now I'm trying to hold out until Prime Day but you guys are making it so hard. I had the10th gen but gave it to my niece since i am going to get the Agave Signature.
Hey, I have a paper white kindle myself and yes kindle unlimited is the best… With the Kindle Unlimited you can read whatever your want for free with paying like $10 a month. Can’t beat that. I love my Kindle ❤ It’s funny because after I purchased mine I still buy physical books too. 😂
what??!! like ANY book for just $10 a month?? thats insane. If thats true I'm getting it lol
It’s not $10 anymore it’s 11.99$ now
Huh but isn’t that still expensive? Since most ppl don’t read more than 2 books a month it is literally same price as if you would buy 1 book every month which doesn’t sound convenient to me
KU is DEF worth it. You can actually read over 200 million books, including really popular booktok books and romances. It’s definitely not just boring, random books but it’s so worth it. Honestly, I was scared to join it but I was immediately impressed and now I’m not ashamed to say my kindle is my bff. 😂
Kindle unlimited is totally worth it. There are so many popular books to read!! And then if you like a book and want to buy it, you don’t have to feel guilty because it was free with the subscription!!!
The editing style is so pleasant. I enjoy my kindle so much.
At 51 it took me forever to embrace the ereader phenom lol I was always a physical book person. But I have loved my kindle paperwhite for years now. It’s introduced me to so many authors I wouldn’t have found without the kindle. I have had KU for several years and love it. So what I’ve done for the last 3-4 years read through KU and if I like the book I will buy the ebook and if I LOVE it I will also buy the paperback for my bookshelves. Now my shelves are filled with books I already love!!
That’s so smart! Thanks for sharing Violet, I’m definitely going to do this ☺️
omg girl i waited so long to get a kindle too because i was stubborn and refused to believe it'd be a good reading experience. but i finally bought one in april and my bank account and i have a better relationship now lol. i definitely recommend getting kindle unlimited because $10 a month for such a wide variety of books is unbeatable. especially when buying one book will cost over $10. also if i read a book description that sounds just too good (or if the cover is just too pretty to not have on my shelf), then i'll just go straight to buying the physical book to limit myself from buying it after reading it on the kindle first.
p.s: i love the stickers 🤍
GURLLLL I LOVE UR ENERGY SO MUCHH
🫶🏽🫶🏽
I have a kindle fire ( just ordered a Kindle paperwhite today) BUT I have Kindle unlimited and it's absolutely worth it! Get it girl!
I just bought mine! Its coming in 2 days with all my accessories. I have been reading library books through libby on my phone. A lot of times i stop reading bc my eyes hurt or i get a notification from another app that pulls me away. Im excited to read and not have tired eyes.
I love my Kindle. I got it from my family for Mother’s Day. I am glad you got one. I really enjoy your channel. You are one of my favorites. I always look forward to your videos. I love Kindle Unlimited. Freida McFadden has all her books on it. It’s great.
This's my first time coming across your channel & i gotta say that i really love your vibe
and i will be checking more of your videos
Wow this just made my day thank you 🩷 happy to have you here
Vibes are immaculate and can I say I absolutely love the hair 😅 Great review too! I too am a newly a converted kindle ppw guy myself!
I got a kindle to save money as well and I don't have KU, but I connected my kindle to my library through libby!! the only con I see to that is that sometimes you have to wait awhile for books but in the name of saving money i can totally wait!
Im definitely buying a kindle before my Japan trip!! Btw i loovvee your content 🤣 now ill be binge watching your vids for the next few weeks
Haha love that for you! I hope you have an incredible trip 🤍 thank you for watching!
Yours truly was my first book from this author, I love her books, I've read like 4 of hers now
Isn’t she great? I can’t wait to read another!
so so so happy i found your channel!! you have amazing energy and i love how goofy you are 🥰💜keep being you !!
Iwas thinking about getting a kindle and I got one because of this review and I love it! Thank you for your thorough review! 💕
Haven't even watched the whole video yet, but I'm glad she has A Lesson Before Dying. I read that book a few years back and really liked it. It's worth the read!
i just have to say you are so sweet and not sure why watching this made me cry but you jus expell so much love and i felt it, thank you honey
Welp you just made my day 🥹💕thank YOU for watching. Comments like this mean so much 🫶🏽
I used to LOVE reading in high school and then I got my first job and just kind of stopped reading for 9 years. I got a kindle paperwhite back in September and I've already read 32 books. It is absolutely amazing I LOVE mine. Best thing I have ever bought for myself I take it literally everywhere lol
GIRL. I love you. I feel like our souls are twin flames, just trust me 😂🫶🏼💗 but! I’m also a big ol’ physical book girly buuuut I am also buying a kindle! Thank you for hyping me up! Mwah!
KU is worth it! There are sooo many good books on there (popular and unpopular)! And this also is another good way to read some books for free before buying the physical book!
Absolutely get a screen protector since you don’t have the kind of case that folds over the screen. When I first got my kindle I didn’t think about it and I took my kindle everywhere with me and unfortunately scratched my screen really bad from putting it in my bags and what not. Also I would definitely recommend kindle unlimited! It has so many book options for every genre! Totally worth it!
i used to have a kindle and i loved it. kindle unlimited is actually a great deal, you may end up finding some great reads on there like i did. the color of your device is really cute too ❤
Wow, did I seriously just watch my favorite bougie book girlie convert to an ebook girlie?! When I saw the title, I was literally like whhuuuttt?! 😆
That's so cool though, glad you're loving the ebook experience, and welcome to 2012! So glad you could join us! 😜😂
Seriously... Agave green was the right call, love the sticker choices ("emotional support kindle" 😆), the curls are poppin', and your Playboy sweatshirt is dope. 🐰
So happy you're back after the technical difficulties from last week, hope you're having a great weekend!
"Omg, it's a new day... Lake life, My Birkin..." 😂🫶🏾 *pew pew*
miracles do happen it seems 😂. I swear I am a grandma at heart. I never know the new trends or what the kids are talking about but we're slowly making progress! next goal is learning how to CC people on emails. Wish me luck 😂 💜
Look at you! happy for you and your purchase! I already know you're gonna have fun with it you deserve it! and Welcome back!!
I totally recommend the KU there’s a lot of books available. No Exit, housemaid, in the jam, serpent wings night I could go on and on. 😊📚💕 I like using kindle at night especially. When I love the book in KU I buy them 😂 I also log in to my library online and check out books to read online or audio at no cost
YES to Kindle Unlimited! I have had it for years now and LOVE IT! There are sooooo many good books on there. Go for it! :)
Ugh. You’re making me want a Kindle 😩 I read on my iPad mini using the Kindle app and I love it. To answer your question, Kindle Unlimited is sooo worth it! I’ve read so many good books that way.
Are the books all full price? I noticed she paid $10~ for her first book on it.. or do the prices go down once you subscribe to KU? I’m confuseddd
@@rubyanddelilahandnaniyou pay $10 a month. Then you get access to tons of books (and I think magazines too) to borrow. When you’re done reading, you just return it and borrow another. You can borrow up to 20 at a time. New, popular releases are often included.
Hey lovely, I’m not sure if anyone else had commented this before but there is two fixes to your two “cons”. First of all you can turn off the feature where it shows other people’s highlights in settings and secondly I think it’s such a great idea to get Kindle unlimited if you’re worried about spending too much money buying the physical copy of the book and the digital copy because Kindle unlimited has a heap of books and you can legit read as many as you want every month, it it’s so much cheaper 😊
Hope this helps lovely xx
Hi! Can you send the exact steps to removing people’s highlights? Thanks in advance!
Giiiirrrl you are a whole vibe… “ohh its a tree” i love it
i was a book girlie too!!! but by having this kindle was A LIFE CHANGER!!!!
This kindle is sitting on my bucket list in my amazon account for about 3 months and it's still there because I want to be sure 100% to buy it since it's a sort of investment. And you make me want to buy it now.
If you haven't bought yet, get it on prime day.
I came to look at the kindle review but end up just smiling all over while watching your reaction! ❤
I got a kindle recently too! I don’t like reading but I do like books that like help you in everyday life such as a book to deal with anxiety, stuff like that for example. Not too into story books except for Harry Potter and possibly Twilight one day. And I am also learning Korean, so I have bought some Korean learning books and also about their culture and stuff
This is the first video I’m watching from your channel ever so I’m new and subscribed! I’m a new member reading and booktok as well soon to be a kindle girly to hopefully I can get one this week as my early birthday present to myself thought a kindle would be perfect for me because I also don’t have enough room for actual books as well so kindle is perfect for for home and travel i can’t wait to get it and decorate it! 🤩📚
Your room looks so peaceful and relaxing. Such a beautiful space to work in.
I too battle with the book vs e-reader debate
I have seen a lot of big authors on KU, I have KU and love it. I read romance and Lauren Asher’s books are on there, Alexis Hall, etc. Definitely worth it!
"I'm glad I have a problem" ME TOO Girl! Me too
😅🫶🏽
I loooved Yours Truly! Jacob is such a sweet character
Right?? Such a good book!
Love this!!! I’m getting a kindle for the same reason! I’ll be buying mine on prime day! So excited!
I have KU and LOVE it!!! I am able to discover so many different books and if I don’t like the book I don’t feel like I am out anything.
last year I got my first kindle and it has been great.
One thing I like is that is not like phones/tablets, it looks so good when reading under direct sunlight, or when reading at night the internal light doesn’t flash you in the face
Omg the office is my favorite show too! When Darrel goes to the book store and gets himself a kindle lol!
Unbelievable! You are working full time??? I am shocked on account of quality of the video you uploaded. So inspiring..!
I had my Paperwhite Kindle for 6 months and I uses it everyday. I have over 300 books on it.
isn't it addicting??!!
@@khalilahd. absolutely. It’s a great option for reading because it has no distractions like our phone and plus you can use it in the dark.
"im glad i have a problem" LMAOOOOOO
I am waiting to buy a new kindle since my old one died permanently. And you got me all excited! Yours Truly sounds amazing! I'll give it a shot!
Yay!! Lmk what you think about it when you do!
I just purchased a Kindle. The same color way you have. I am excited to get it and then I can read as much as I want 😀
I bought my Kindle in February as a birthday present to myself and I love it. Thank you for telling me about turning off the popular highlights because that’s the one thing I didn’t like either, lol.
omg just found your channel and the aesthetic is SO STUNNING!!! love the video and your apartment is Beautiful!
Omg thanks so much Ava, happy to have you here. Hope you stay awhile ☺️💕
this is so cute i love this. as soon as you said office stickers i immediately subscribed.
The way I fly through books on my kindle is crazy! My best recent purchase for sure
ahhhhh a khalilah uploaddd!!! watching this on my break during work today 🫶🏽
This is why I love you 😭🩷
I bought that same color kindle and same exact popsocket on prime days 😂 I’m so excited to have a kindle now!
twins! 😅🩷
I just began liking ur Chanel recently and watched almost all your videos! You mentioned you post Sundays, so I got worried you weren't posting anymore. Relieved to see a new video!! ❤
Ugh I know! There was technical issues last Sunday so I’m sorry 😭 it was actually the first Sunday we ever missed since posting but it shouldn’t happen again! Thanks for watching Natalie 🫶🏽
I was unsure about KU as well, as I don't really like to read dark or smutty romances but I can see that KU has changed its demographic a bit to accommodate more popular booktok books like Lucy Score, etc. I'm not the type of person to pay regular price for it so maybe look out for a 3 month discounted deal or free trial for 30 days.
I felt the same way, did not want it until…I ran out of room! And when I realized the books were cheaper and I got them instantly, it’s linked to my Amazon account so it was on lol yes I definitely decorated with stickers! I didn’t know it connected to good reads. I’m bad with learning all the features that stuff offers. We got the kindle unlimited free for 3 months with the purchase and didn’t use it but then…while at the bookstore most of the books I was going to buy were available on kindle on kindle unlimited, they have a great selection. Etsy has great stickers with reading theme!
When you sing while talking you remind me of my daughter who does the same thing🥰
I have a kindle, a library card and kindle unlimited between them I hardly have an issue finding books! 13$ a month is a touch heavy but the price is definitely worth it when you consider how many books will be at your disposal. You can send library books to your kindle too so its super helpful, my kindle is always with me.
Hey, something I didn't realise till recently was you can have an amazon family link thing. So you still get the benefits of your brothers prime but get to still have your own account. I have it set up with my amazon being in the same 'household' as my boyfriend who has a prime account. I get access to his prime streaming account and prime books too. I think when I get KU in the next few days when my kindle arrives he'll get the benefits too. It's pretty cool
the algs are definitely watching me because i looked into getting a kindle paperwhite and this showed up in my youtube recs the next day lol. great video!!
I've had a Kindle Fire for 7 years. It's basically a tablet that also lets you read ebooks and listen to audiobooks. I love it. It's perfect for traveling because it means I can bring a ton of books with me and I don't need my laptop, as the app store has Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, and Disney+. I've never tried their other Kindle versions, but I'm not sure I'd want to at this point.
A reader gives themselves tons of options, I do I all. Also the wireless charger is the very best part of this particular Kindle.
i was a physical book girly too but then i got my kindle a little over a year ago and i'm OBSESSED i love it so much it's my baby lmao now i only buy a physical version if i really enjoyed the book and want it on my shelf or if it's a pretty edition
as for kindle unlimited they do have some decent books i'd recommend using the free trial and browsing a little to get an overview of it (there aren't really a lot of books for my taste because i mostly read sapphic books but i still think it's worth it)
i also saved a BUNCH of money by having a kindle because amazon has discounts every now and then on the ebook versions you just need to check it regularly (i literally got books like the poppy war etc. for 1€ 😭)
p.s. little tip you can easily see what page you're on, how long you've got left in a chapter or the book not just by tapping the top but by tapping the bottom left it'll show you the whole time and you can turn off the option where it shows you how many people highlighted something in a book
I'm contemplating getting one, but im not sure I want a book specific device right now. That green is super cute. I've never had a kindle but YEARS ago when the nook first came out I jumped on that. I used to read a lot more, but im feeling a reading hyperfixation coming on. 😂 I think reading that my favorite author finally has a project in the works has me pumped.
Girl the fig you give off is amazing, yes I just subscribed
I’m so excited for you to get into your Kindle girlie era!!!! Having one has absolutely changed my reading game. Definitely get KU, it’s sooooo worth it. So many popular and good books for only $10 per month! Even if you read 1 book a month, it’s less than buying one at B&N. You can always try the free trial first to see if you like it - usually it’s your first 2 months free! Can’t wait to watch your next Kindle videos, and I hope you love yours as much as I love mine! 🩷
No I definitely love it here! I’m seriously considering getting KU
This is one of the most fun videos I’ve ever watched ❤❤❤Ty!!! Also this is the kindle I want, I love that color
Definitely get Kindle Unlimited!!! I have had it for a few years now and I don’t regret it one bit. Some of my favorite books are on kindle unlimited.
KU is soooo worth it !!! Such a wide selection of books
I have kindle unlimited and I would def recommend it! I usually use it to borrow books I’m interested in, and then if I like it enough I’ll actually buy it so I can re-read it.
I have the 8th gen kindle that I bought used, so that’s been fun. I might have to get a newer one though purely for the backlight feature lol
Have fun with your new kindle! :D
that green colour is perfect 😍😍
Kindle Unlimited is definitely worth it. I’ve found authors, such as Freida McFadden, that I would’ve never thought their books would be on there. Right now I have the KU app on my phone and I purchase some physical books but I’m definitely getting a Kindle.
Aww this video made me so happy. You are so bubbly & happy. I want to be a book girl I just need to learn how to find books I like
I love my kindle! it got me into reading again lol also I highly recommend KU and a book recommendation: Restore Me 👌🏾
17:06 im not sure if u know already but u can turn that feature off!! its amazing bc i hate reaching a certain point and knowing something happens because SO many people highlighted it lol
