Dear Reader,<\/p>\n

I’m a big fan of my Kindle Paperwhite. It’s not the top-of-the-line Kindle, but it has everything I need. The most important feature (for me) is that it is backlit, meaning I can read it in bright sunlight, and also in bed in the dark (without a reading light). This one feature has saved my marriage (or least my husband’s sleep!) <\/p>\n

So, why bring this up today? Amazon is having a Valentine’s Day sale, and you can get a Kindle Paperwhite for $99 or the entry-level Kindle for only $59. Here’s the link<\/a>. If you take advantage of the sale, let me know which model you chose!<\/p>\n

\tSee ya on the Net,
