I've just got one of these nifty wee things for Christmas. A couple of questions I have:
- Does anyone have any good free books to recommend. I can find a lot of "classics" a la Dickens but any other favourites folk have would be welcome.
Also, I got a gift voucher with it, and would like to pay for some books with it. However, the Kindle is automatically set up to charge the books to the account linked to me Amazon account. The Kindle appears to have "1 click" payment automatically set-up, so I only have "Buy" as an option, and no sort of "Use gift voucher" option.
Any advice?? Do I need to do something to my Amazon account on the PC? Can Kindle books be bought via your Amazon account on the PC and then downloaded to the Kindle associated with that Amazon account?
Cheers

Add the gift vouchers to your amazon account on your PC (click on gift certificates and then apply to your account) then when you buy a book on your kindle it will use the credit appkied to your account from the gift cert.

Depends what floats your boat but South: the story of the 1914-1917 Arctic expedition by Ernest Shackleton is one of the most astonishing stories I've ever read, and its true.

I could easily have taken 2 secs to Google the gift voucher thing - Now got £30 to play with and signed up to the Facebook group.

You can find most popular books in .mobi format somewhere online. A Google search usually does the trick.

Tom Cruise as Reacher is a strange one, Reacher is supposed to be about 6,7 and built like a brick ****house, rugged ex special forces/army type dude, although Lee Childs himself has said he's fully behind the idea........so would I be Lee........$$$$$ CHA CHING $$$$$!!!
For anyone who hasn't read a Jack Reacher book, start with 'The Killing Floor', superb book, 1st in the series too.
I follow @kindleuk on twitter and they sometimes tweet the odd gem at a low price, worth checking out IMO.Last edited by The_Exile; 06-01-2012 at 08:40 AM.
