I would stock it before I sent it, obviously. and she has many other presents coming so like if she hates it, it's not like birthday fail....

I think this is not crazy. does she travel? saved my life travelling. I read like 9 books in Africa, and didn't have to carry any of them around. -- nm - mafic Mar 26, 18:16
I was given a Kindle when my sister upgraded. I've never read a complete book on it. -- nm - Dano Mar 26, 18:15
My wife thought she would never like it, but she now loves it. I got her a paperwhite -- nm - CQ Mar 26, 17:49
As one that hates ereading, I would thank you for the paperweight and then regift it. -- nm - Ultron Mar 26, 17:42 3
- I can tell her that if she hates it, she can give to sash. I mean, she has many other gifts. bourbon cherries!! -- nm - all the boys love mandy lane Mar 26, 18:04 1
  - do it. I was another who wasn't certain I'd like it then totally embraced it in, like, a minute. - b. Mar 26, 18:12

In my experience, even people who are resistant to it fall in love pretty quickly. -- nm - David Mar 26, 17:42 5
- yeah, I pre-hated ereading and then loved it. my bag was so light! the paperwhite is so amazing. I think I should do it. - all the boys love mandy lane Mar 26, 18:03 1
  - Do it. -- nm - iSpam Mar 26, 18:14
- Not having to house physical copies of books has allowed me to read a LOT more than before - TWuG Mar 26, 17:55 1
  - we both bus commute. I *love* that I can just grab my kindle and fly. no more "what book should I grab?" I'll grab them all. -- nm - all the boys love mandy lane Mar 26, 18:05
- i agree -- nm - prayformojo Mar 26, 17:43
