This was the first year I can remember that I didn't get a single book for Christmas. BUT my husband did get me the new kindle paperwhite. I didn't technically NEED a new one. Mine worked perfectly fine, but I do ❤ the larger screen, the much longer battery life, and maybe my favorite thing - the USB c port so it's compatible with everything else in my life. I have a case on order, and once it arrives all will be right with my world. 😁
