I’ve been meaning to blog about this for a while, but I am seriously loving the Kindle for iPhone app that Amazon put together! I don’t have an iPhone, but I do have the iPod Touch which it also works on. I downloaded it because it was free and then I grabbed a few free books (there are a couple free Star Wars books on there!). I was honestly shocked to find that I enjoy reading on my iPod almost as much as holding a book! When I’m at my desk or on the couch, I still prefer an actual book, but being able to carry around a library in my pocket rocks when I’m waiting to meet up with someone, sitting at the doctor’s, travelling, or whatever else. It’s actually cheaper buying digital books vs physical, too, which is a plus. What I really love is that I’m able to read youth ministry resources on the go, grabbing a few minutes here and there.
Anyone else out there using the app? What do you think about digital books in general? I never would have thought that I’d be into them!
I really enjoy the Kindle app. I have bought a few books on it – it does help to carry your books around with you. My wife would not mind the regular kindle but she says the screen on the iphone is too small for a digital book.

I thought the screen would be too small, but I got used to it pretty quick. On the other hand, I read with the font set on the smallest size so I can fit more on the screen. If I had to have the font size too much bigger it would probably drive me nuts to be turning pages ever few sentences.
