[TravelingGal]

Because you can lend them, beginning today.

I saw that too! We should all start swapping books.

...this may be the nudge I needed to finally take the plunge and get a Kindle.

Thanks for the update, TGal!

I was so excited about this possibility until the day after Christmas when the two people who were getting Kindles ended up getting different e-readers for Christmas.

Should we start a list of the books we have? Besides the free ones of course.

DH gifted me a kindle for Xmas so this is very timely.

THANKS!

This is great news! My sister and her FI have massive Kindle libraries, I can't wait to raid them!

Yes! That is great news! I'd happily join a PS list of owned Kindle books!

Awesome! I've been so happy since getting my Kindle for Christmas (okay, we gave in and opened them on Christmas Eve!)

I think the PS list would be great.

You don't even need the Kindle...all you need is the Kindle App!

Looks like the lending procedure involves an email addy. Is there a way we can figure out how to share them with others who are willing to join a PS lending group?

i don't think i have any books that are lendable

but i am LOVING the kindle so far!!

Sure you can!

I must admit, after reading for two degrees, a masters degree and a post-graduate diploma, if I read something for pleasure it's pretty much guaranteed to be trash these days. I've waded through the classics in my time, but frankly I prefer a really good crappy novel. Happy to share any of them with anyone who shares my anti-literary tastes!

boo! Just read the fine print...at this time lending can only be initiated by people in the US. Still, international lending can't be that far behind...
