I began subscribing to Michael's blog the day I received my first Kindle.
Because of his blog and subsequent book, Kindle Tips, Tricks, and Shortcuts I can gain the maximum value from my Kindle.
I refer everyone I know who received a new Kindle so that they can understand all the things the Kindle can do.
I love that so much useful info is located in one concise book and I that can access it as needed.
BTW, the website links that Michael includes in the book are preferable to going on the web tab of the Kindle Fire to the site.
It's a cleaner, more readable version of each website.
Welcome to my blog. I love reading on my Kindle. I pretty much get all the books for free. By doing book reviews for booksneeze.com, I can score more free books. I also like Learning and Teaching. I'm making a good effort to keep up to date on one Life Lesson for each year of my life.

Saving for Retirement without Living Like a Pauper or Winning the Lottery
Very well written. I am semi-retired and I understand quite a bit about Retirement Investing, but now I am clear about so much more. In particular, Gail MarksJarvis showed me how to find the fee structure in a Prospectus and use that to my advantage. I highly recommend Saving for Retirement without Living Like a Pauper or Winning the Lottery for those at the beginning of their career all the way to those who are already retired. It's easy to read and full of helpful information.

Today We Are Rich
What I really enjoy about this motivational book, is that it is woven into a fascinating story about Tim's boyhood in New Mexico, being raised by his smart and loving grandmother, Billye. Today We Are Rich is an uplifting, thoughtful story. I'm keeping it loaded in the Reference collection on my Kindle so that I can refer back to the principles often.

Prosperity
Prosperity is a state of consciousness.
Charles Fillmore, co-founder of Unity School of Christianity, explains the biblical principles of Prosperity in this thoughtful and timeless book written published in 1936.
This is my second time reading the book and I expect to turn to it again in the future as a reference reminding me that GOD is my source.

How Can I Talk If My Lips Don't Move
Last night I finished How Can I Talk If My Lips Don't Move?
My Amazon Review: Tito Rajarshi Mukhopadhyay (Author) is a fabulous communicator. I felt that I could truly understand the influence of Autism on Tito's interactions with the world. I highly recommend this book for anyone with a desire to understand what it means to live in this world and be Autistic. Thanks to Tito for a comprehensive explanation of your life experiences.
I downloaded the book for free in July. I rated it with 5 stars, as did the 12 Reviewers who posted before me.

THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF BENJAMIN FRANKLIN
The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is well worth the time to read. The book gave me more insight into Ben Franklin's amazing contributions to the founding of our great nation. I had been soured on my admiration of Benjamin Franklin after reading Benjamin Franklin: An American Life. I was greatly disappointed by the neglect of his wife and family while he was partying in France.
Now that I've read Dr. Franklin's own words, I have a clearer idea of his thought process. He had a brilliant mind; and yet uncovered simple solutions to life's large and small inconveniences.
I loved rereading his plan for self-improvement, focusing on one character flaw each week for a week at a time until he had improved 13 character traits; and then repeating the process every 13 weeks, 4 times a year.
I found it interesting that 'orderliness' was the one habit that he had the most difficulty in achieving.
There were many times during the reading that my thoughts drifted and I didn't remember what I had read; but it was still worth the time for what I did learn.

Message: The Book of Proverbs
I usually enjoy reading the Proverbs of King Solomon. The book of Proverbs contains wisdom for everyday life activities. At first I was enjoying the hip language in this translation. After awhile I started comparing verses to the ESV version; and the other version was more articulate and understandable. I question the accuracy of Message: The Book of Proverbs translation.
