The NOOK Book

Nook Book: By Barnes & Noble | Patrick Kanouse

Been sitting on the porch most of the afternoon reading serious stuff. Time for some #fanfic on the ‘ol #Nook.

Oh, and #8tracks is back! So here‘s what I‘m listening to: http://8tracks.com/queenofthebobs/truth-in-your-lies

kellylovesreading Which Nook is that ? I like it 4y

TheBookDream @kellylovesreading Nook Glowlight. It‘s several generations back now but you might be able to grab one second hand. 4y

kellylovesreading I love it its pretty I have the a nook I love Nooks 4y

kellylovesreading Thank you 4y

TheBookDream @kellylovesreading I am also a big Nook fan. Have a few for different things (waterproof one, the galaxy S2 tablet, etc.) 4y

Look what came in today!!!! I'm squealing with excitement!!!!

ljuliel Very cute ! How are you liking it ? (edited) 5y

Author_Chelsea_Warren_PA @ljuliel I absolutely LOVE it! 😊 5y

ljuliel I‘ve only ever seen one Nook in person and that was several years ago. Can you put library ebooks on them ? I don‘t know much about them. 5y

Author_Chelsea_Warren_PA @ljuliel I believe you can put library ebooks on them, but I'm not 100% sure 5y

ljuliel I‘m very tech- challenged so I don‘t know much about different devices . Heck, sometimes I don‘t know much about my own. I wish you many happy reading years ahead. (edited) 5y

We finally got the art up in my reading nook! This is actually in the master bedroom, bed just barely out of the frame.

Featuring gifts/cards from three Litsy friends! @Mitch @Gissy and the third I‘m not positive about- the Emerson Quote- did it come from @sammisho or @JoScho or @ScientistSam ? I‘m so sorry I can‘t remember who sent me this beautiful card! Also, my Sirius Black wand is just under Tintaglia!

The book nook is getting a few more books and a few extra comforts. I loved the suggestions I got and I will slowly be implementing them, like a lamp and cozy rug. I‘ll bring my cuddly cat when she finally relents and let‘s us bring her to the lake house. Btw, my lovely mom @Momreviews made the gorgeous tablecloth under the flowers.

I got a new case for my Nook and it makes me so happy, snack time makes me happy too!

JHSiess I have that case on my 8" Samsung tablet. The colors on mine are more muted, though.? 6y

KristinaRay I have the same case for my kindle. I love it. 6y

GloVerdino @Quirkybookworm it's a tough decision sometimes, I was back and forth between a few before I finally pulled the trigger. And I got it with credit card points so it was pretty much free! 6y

KristinaRay I‘ve had it 6 months and use it daily, and it‘s in great condition still. And it‘s so pretty. I love it! 6y

TheBookDream @Megara Yup! My one Black Friday purchase was to replace the Nook HD which I can't use for anything other than straight reading anymore. 7y

Megara @TheBookDream awesome! My Black Friday purchase was yarn for my next knitting projects. 🐑 7y

TheBookDream @Megara Niiiice. I may try some knitting again. I bought some nice hand knit items from the local senior center fundraiser though. Stuff I could never knit myself 😂 (edited) 7y

I'll get around to doing a spec comparison. But on the surface, the absence of the waterproof feature is a deal-breaker for me. Same price. Might be a good time to see what Kobo is offering. #nook #nookglowlightplus #nookglowlight3 #nookglowlightupgrade #ereader

TheBookDream I was baffled by the lack of waterproof feature, until I realized that it's probably not a super popular feature amongst their target demographic, which I am increasingly thinking is senior citizens who enjoy being able to go to the store for tech help. The buttons were really popular so putting them back was a good move. (edited) 7y

TheBookDream Also, the glowlight plus is AWESOME for being waterproof and I love it for that, but it is by FAR the most temperamental to operate, and is heavy to boot. I use mine for waterproof situations almost exclusively, and one of the regular glow lights for everything else. 7y

Donna_sBookMinute @TheBookDream — The GLP is my very first ereader; so I have nothing to compare it to. But I do agree that it‘s heavy. For some reason, I‘m drawn to Kobo. Guess I‘ll see what they‘re offering now. I don‘t think the Canada base would be an issue. #nook #nookglowlightplus #nookglowlight3 #nookglowlightupgrade #ereader #kobo (edited) 7y

TheBookDream I don't think you can put Nook books on Kobo anymore FYI. Unless you get a tablet with a Nook reader installed. 7y

Donna_sBookMinute @TheBookDream — I would order the books from Kobo. Haven‘t thought everything through, though. 7y

I think the battery just died on my nook...sad day! It's lasted 2 years, which is about normal for a tablet, I guess. Waiting on the hubby the get home to try a new cord, and if that doesnt fix it, off to the store to buy another one. Can't be without my nook!

No_One ☹ best of luck!! 7y

rjsthumbelina Yeah, battery is shot. Lasted over 2 years though, and considering how often (and for long periods of time) I read on it, I think thats probably as much as I can ask! Made it to b&n before they closed to get a new one (bc Lord knows I can't go a night without it!) 7y

I AM SAD. My Nook Glowlight is awesome and no one can tell me different. #kindleschmindle #imfeelingthekoboblues

Edit: I need to start backing up my elibrary outside of BN. It would be nice if Kobo could swoop in and save the day, but hopes and wishes are not going to save my books. 😩

monalyisha I'm sorry you're sad! But I am viciously happy.? I worked at B&N for a hot minute & I resented the Nook so much. I'd just graduated from college when they 1st came out & MGMT was like, "She's young! She must know about technology!" They stationed me by the door and made me POUNCE on people as soon as they walked in. Not only do I hate that style of customer "service," but I'm also not really into e-readers (though I admit there's a time & place). 7y

diovival @monalyisha LOL! That sounds like the dreaded department store perfume blitz. 😝 Glad the dark days of 1st gen Nook are behind you. 😂 Print books will always be my first love. I got a Nook tablet not too long ago, but I still like my old Nook Glowlight better. It's the best for travel. 7y

Jess7 I'm a big fan of my #kindlepaperwhite - it too has an optional backlight. I highly recommend it should you ever wish to reconsider. 💕📚 7y

rjsthumbelina As someone who currently works for b&n, the idea is that nook will continue to be sold and supported. Actually, Samsung bought the brand in the partnership, so all future nooks will be Samsung branded. My understanding is that Samsung also bought the nook store, so continuing to get your stuff digitally shouldn't be an issue 7y

diovival @rjsthumbelina good to know! 😥 7y

Donna_sBookMinute I like mine too. But they just came out with a new one. I'm going to B&N later on to ask questions. Be nice if they had a trade-in offer. But I don't think the upgrade is waterproof. 7y

Does anyone have this ereader? What do you think of it? I want to buy an ereader just for reading and the price on this one is really good. I don't care about it's other capabilities. It's getting annoying to read on my phone. I really just need to be able to have Overdrive and Hoopla. #ereader #Nook

jpmcwisemorgan I use a Kindle but I know people use Nooks and like them. I'm a fan of ereaders regardless of the type because the screen is bigger than a phone and when you want to read a hefty book it's easier to pack around! 7y

Ruri_kaichou I only know one friend who had a nook and she loves it. Sorry it's not a personal rec, but I also have a Kindle. 😳 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess I had a Nook and loved it. Depending on your local store, sometimes they have classes for the Nook. I have switched over to a Kindle though since I won it last year. 7y

dariazeoli You may want to wait for Prime Day next week to see if the Kindle Fire goes in sale in a few days. That would allow for Overdrive and Hoopla. From what I saw when I played in the Nook section of B&N, this tablet is comparable. Good luck! 7y

Read4life Have it and love it. 7y

josie281 It's Prime Day today 7y

josie281 Ignore me. 😂 7y

LauraBrook Whatever brand you get, I'd say go for whatever the version of a kindle paperwhite would be - can read at night, no color, and most importantly to me, NO GLARE! I have a kindle fire too and I never read on it bc it's so glare-y. I just want to read on mine, and I love my paperwhite for that. Happy shopping! 7y

Bookworm83 @jpmcwisemorgan @Ruri_kaichou @Graciouswarriorprincess Thank you so much! I have the original Nook and loved it, too! @dariazeoli I didn't know about that...thanks! @josie281 😂😂 7y

Bookworm83 @Read4life Awesome! Do you use Hoopla and/or Overdrive on it? 7y

TheBookStacker I love my Kindle. But I'm definitely always buying Amazon products. Maybe you could get a kindle cheap during Prime Day sales. 7y

Bookworm83 @LauraBrook That's a great point! I haven't really looked at the paperwhite ones. I always assumed those couldn't be used at night, but I guess I was wrong 🙂 So they must have some kind of backlight then? 7y

Bookworm83 @TheBookStacker I'm not really partial to either, so I may wait for the Prime Day sales to see 👍🏻 7y

Ruri_kaichou You may want to avoid the Fire or any tablet if it's just going to be for reading because of the glare. All e-readers are backlit which makes it great to read in any light. The nice thing about the Kindle (newer models) is it's really easy to push ebooks to it. And you can do some GoodReads things on it. Oh, and you can sync where you are in a book so you can switch back and forth from an audiobook. 7y

Ruri_kaichou Ack. More specifically, Audible audiobooks. I don't think it will work for any others purchased outside of Amazon 7y

LauraBrook @bookworm83 Yep, it's backlit and it's easy to adjust brightness and font size. It does connect to Amazon and Goodreads but unless I'm buying something last minute, I only use mine for reading. I love it - have had it for 3 years, no complaints. A charge lasts about a month for me, I only read in bed at night (10min to 2 hrs a time). 7y

HeatherBookNerd I have a kindle paperwhite and it's been great. 7y

Bookworm83 @Ruri_kaichou @LauraBrook The more I think about it and read your comments the more I think I should do the paperwhite type ereader. Thanks ladies! 7y

Bookworm83 @HeatherBookNerd Thanks!! I'm going to check into it. 7y

ReadingEnvy I love my Paperwhite and I'm a paper books first reader 7y

Coleen Is that the Samsung Nook? I am typing on one right now. I have had a series of Nooks and this seems to be the best so far. However, I've not used Hoopla or Overdrive on it. I use those on my phone. 7y

Bookworm83 @ReadingEnvy That's how I am, too! I'm thinking the paperwhite might be a good option. @Coleen Thanks! I don't think it is the Samsung. It's their most basic Nook. 7y

Hooked_on_books My mom has it and likes it overall. Overdrive works great but she doesn't use Hoopla, so I don't know about that. She says it can be hard to see outdoors, which tends to be true with backlit ereaders. I have a nook glow light which is great outside. 7y

Bookworm83 @Hooked_on_books Thank you! I don't use Hoopla that much, so it's nice to know Overdrive works well 👍🏻 7y

Hooked_on_books @Bookworm83 You're welcome! She also says the battery life isn't great--only about 7 hours. 7y

Day 8: Books and Ice Cream. Sorry sorry. I know I'm late for this one, but work has been super busy (yay retail) and went to bed at 7 last night 😱. So when I eat and read, I use my Nook. I don't want to get one of my paper books icky and I totally would with how wobbly my coordination is (and on that note, I'm never eating rice in public again, I got more on me than my mouth.) Yay ereaders. #riotgrams

Day 3: How I read. This is where I read, on a blanket covered wingback chair (we have 6 cats and a dog, it's fur city here) in our den. I either read on my Nook or a hardback, unless I'm reading a comic, then it is iPad. Usually I have one of our cats on my lap. #riotgrams
