I’ve posted before about my Kobo e-reader. I love it because it’s simple, it’s fast, and it really feels like I’m reading a print book. Though I still read print books as well, I actually prefer the Kobo e-reader to print books now.

I’ve been watching the Kobo Look Book at my local CVS pharmacy for about six months now. I heard CVS was going to carry it for the Christmas season, and they’ve sold most of them out by now. But I’ve been watching closely. This morning they had a few left, and they’d reduced the price from 149.00 to 49.00.

Even though I’m not one of those people who buy new appliances and gadgets just for the sake of buying them because they are new, that’s a deal that’s just too good to pass up. So I bought a Look Book and it’s charging right now. I’ll post more about it when I get to know it better. The Look Book is a lot like Literati, from what I’ve heard and read, and it’s back lit, unlike my regular Kobo.

But at 49.00 I don’t think you can go wrong, especially since the lowest Kindle I’ve seen is priced around 114.00.
