I use an iPad Pro.
You download the kindle app which works on any android or iOS tablet even your phone but I don’t recommend using a phone.
You create your Amazon account online and link your credit card to the account and you are off!
when browsing for books, you can either search the kindle section or on the right there is usually an option of paperback or kindle edition. You can send the sample to your preferred device which is usually the first chapter or downright purchase.
I did have a kindle subscription initially which was awesome but a lot of the books I wanted to read were not free and I wasn’t interested in the titles which were free. The kindle subscription is similar to a library where you check out items but return them when you are done. I prefer buying books because they remain in my library forever!
P.S. @Hooked check for specials as they usually have the first month or first 2, months of a subscription free. I recall paying 7USD for 3 month subscription after that the price was 10USD monthly.
edit: when i canceled they offered me another month free to reconsider but I ended up using the free month and canceling anyways as I want to own my books.

One of my all time favorites
Fascinating book
For more than a decade, Jacques Pauw has traversed his native continent in pursuit of warlords and drug traffickers, child soldiers and charlatans, adventure and anarchy. What he found was a rich array of personalities and a panoply of stories, ranging from the profoundly tragic to the intensely personal. Pauw’s stories range from South Africa to Rwanda, from Sierra Leone and the Sudan to Mozambique. Readers are taken behind the scenes of sensational news reports with compassion, humour and occasional cynicism and emerge in the knowledge that, even if it’s true that there is nothing new out of Africa, the writer has found fresh ways to present time-honoured tales of love, life, misery and mortality.

Use to love Stephen King. But his old novels such as Misery, Pet Semetary, Salems Lot, etc
His new stuff is horrible
Jeffery Deaver (Bone Collector) is also a favourite of mine. But the last few books in the series was monotonous

Brilliant book. So much better than the movie
I bought these books from @Slick's sister-in-law. It's hard to believe that they're second-hand, as they're in excellent condition. And I paid only R280 for all of them! I arranged for Pudo to collect from her house, so I paid only R60 courier fee.
I would highly recommend @Slick's sister-in-law!
A notebook was included for my comments, along with a hand-written note. A lovely, personal touch!!

Nice one for during lockdowns here.. Probably not a night stand book but very informative for what you can do with it

Just what I need! I bought an air-fryer a week ago (too impatient to wait for Black Friday
) and I have a lot to learn!
You guys are just soooo thoughtful
I wonder if it has my apple wrapped in bacon recipes, or my sausage and mustard wrapped in bacon recipe ?

I believe the last Shannara book is coming out this month, reread all the old ones last year in preparation.
If you like those authors, try the Malazan book of the Fallen by Steven Ericson, imho a better fantasy epic than Wheel of Time.
Currently reading the Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons.
Thanks for the update.. Malazan is on my Kindle ... one of those series I still need to get to but I have only heard good things.
Apologies definitely not to derail in any way. Good one to share. @Hooked if interested perhaps try and get some of these their called air fryer liners or paper parchments. Found them online. Any shape or size available. After a few months use it's a nightmare keeping the bottom properly cleaned. These work great. Just my 2 cents worth wish I'd known about this earlier..Just what I need!
