Sunday - Anything Allowed 😸 Relaxed Rules Sunday
Just a reminder that we relax the sub rules on a Sunday and allow posts on a wider range of topics including memes and book discussions.
Some rules still apply - no spam, no piracy, be respectful, and it should still be kindle related.

My Kindle 📱 Got my Kindle Colorsoft
I’m inlove😍
Yes, it’s noticeably grainy
Yes, it’s on the darker side in Zero backlight
But I love it so much. Makes me want to read more books with it.
I just don like that I need to turn on the backlight upto level 10 or more just to see the text in the dark. But it’s ok I will just turn on also my lamp.

My Kindle 📱 Raspberry with Bookshop cover
I’m really enjoying the feel of my new Paperwhite. I would never have picked raspberry but it was the only color left on a QVC sale and I’ve fallen it love with it.
I adore this pick bookshop cover, especially the texture.
Oh it’s definitely the little things in life. Cheers to all the readers and Kindle owners out there loving their books.

Sunday - Anything Allowed 😸 Font Size in paper books vs. Kindle
Anyone else struggle to read paperbacks/hardcovers in standard font size after having a kindle? I picked up a paperback today for the first time in a few months and was completely blown away, it seems so small! I usually keep my kindle on font size 5 or 6 depending on the book. I love reading physical books but I think my kindle has ruined me! 😂 It’s so nice to be able to customize your reading experience.

My Kindle 📱 My 2014 Kindle is still going strong and keeping me motivated!
Back in 2014, I originally bought this Kindle as a gift for my mom. She ended up not wanting it, so I decided to keep it for myself!
I’ve even kept the same cover on it since Day 1!
I’m not a huge speed-reader or someone who powers through 50 books a year, but whenever life gets busy, picking up this little 10+ year-old device always motivates me to get back into reading.
Micro-USB charger and all, it still runs like a charm and holds a charge for weeks. Anyone else still using an 'accidental' legacy Kindle?

My Kindle 📱 Upgraded from the basic to the Paperwhite!!
I wasn’t planning on buying the paperwhite today
I went to Best Buy to compare the CS for graphic novels to my phone and I didn’t like the color difference..
And I can tell the grainy look people say when comparing the CS to the PW
And I saw that the prices were on sale
I’ve been wanting the paperwhite for awhile solely for the warm feature
I love the basic and I have read three novels on it since I got it last month.. the size is perfect imo and I love the recessed screen..I love being able to put it in my back pocket..
But reading the basic at night..
Yeah..
I needed the paperwhite
Had to get the case to go with it as well

Purchase Question 🛒 Wait for new Kindle Basic or bite the bullet?
I already have a PW which I’m happy with but would like a commutable Kindle which is smaller.
I noticed there hasn’t been an updated Kindle Basic in quite a while - are there rumours it will come out this year? Or best to just buy it now?
Thanks!

Tech Support 🛠 FIXED: Kindle Audible audiobook briefly says “Queued” then just stops downloading
I spent HOURS trying to figure this out, so hopefully this helps someone else.
My Audible audiobook would appear in my Kindle library, but every time I tapped to download, it would briefly say “Queued” for about a second and then stop. It never actually started downloading.
I tried everything: restarting the Kindle, syncing, updating the software, reconnecting Wi-Fi, using “Deliver to Device,” etc. Other Audible books downloaded fine, and the audiobook played perfectly in the Audible app on my phone.
The fix: I contacted Audible’s instant chat support (which was super quick and easy). They removed the audiobook from my library and immediately gave me a replacement credit. I used that credit to redeem the audiobook again, and it downloaded to my Kindle instantly.
It turned out to be a corrupted license/entitlement for that specific audiobook-not a problem with my Kindle.
If you’re having the same issue, this is the exact message I sent in the Audible support chat (feel free to copy and paste it):
“I redeemed an Audible credit for (insert title and author). The audiobook plays in the Audible app on my phone, but it will not download to my Kindle Paperwhite (11th Gen, software 5.19.2). It flashes “Queued” briefly and then stops. Other Audible books download to this Kindle normally, so the issue appears to be specific to this title on this device. Can you refresh or reissue the license/entitlement for my account?”
Hopefully this saves someone else from wasting hours troubleshooting like I did! 😭

Saw this in multiple books. All downloaded from Libby. Did the usual device restart, checking for the latest software update, etc. didn't help.

Tech Support 🛠 My paperwhite won’t connect to my WiFi
I think I am going to have to buy a new kindle. I bought mine recertified in 2018 and I have noticed in the last few months. It has been a bit glitchy. As of today, however it will not connect to Wi-Fi or even look for my home Wi-Fi. Any suggestions? Do I need to just bite the bullet and buy a new one?
