I use my kindle almost every day. It’s the best purchase I’ve ever made

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

I love that!

@andieland1923 Месяц назад

Every day for a YEAR?! Holy cow, you're dedicated!! That's amazing! My anxiety would freak out at having to do something every day for a year. I'm getting into KU and enjoying it so far. I'm glad you'll have more flexibility now but this was so interesting. You do indeed have a soothing voice, very excited to try the new channel! Looking forward to the vlog!

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

Yeah I’m honestly shocked I made it a whole year. KU has some great options and hidden gems. If you need any recs, let me know!

@Makreads 29 дней назад

Honestly, the best time to try this is in February. Shortest month & reading for 10/30 minutes

@samarycastro Месяц назад

Yee fucking haw! 🤣🤣🤣 same girl same! I’m on track to one year as well! 💪 I’m on my 144th day straight of reading on my Kindle! It’s honestly changed my reading habits completely being on KU.

@wills2652 Месяц назад

You give me hope! I’m on day 12! I will get to 365 eventually!!

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

Biggest thing I learned is to just have fun with it!

@SteamyPMcGee Месяц назад

201 days here, I am ready to quit except I like those little bookmarks we get from the kindle challenges.

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

Some days I would only read two pages just so it would count them.

@SteamyPMcGee Месяц назад

@AdventuresInPages I hear ya. Even more cheaty when it's just one page of national geographic magazine!

@nicolewolf1845 Месяц назад

I would love to see your favorite KU books from this journey!

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

Oh that is so many books to go through 🫣 but I think that would be really fun!

@kmlb81 25 дней назад

Love what you said about DNF. It does make it a lot easier to DNF keeping in mind it doesn't have to be forever. But I have noticed on the times I do make it back to finish a DNF book- I was usually right in the first place to DNF. It has been rare I actually enjoyed reading a book a previously had decided to DNF. I love that you are quick to DNF now. I think it's an important skill to have in order to avoid reading slumps.

@AdventuresInPages 25 дней назад

It’s just so freeing!

@alinegr Месяц назад

Not a romance, but there's a bit of romance in it: I read Outlawed by Anna North earlier this year and LOVED IT! Didn't know I'd be this into a western themed book. Yeehaw!

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

Thanks for the rec, I’ll check it out!

@imperfect_pages5331 Месяц назад

I've been keeping up my weekly streak this year, but kudos for reading every single day! I go through kicks where I want to read physical books, but my kindle has definitely changed my reading game!

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

Thanks! Yeah I think my goal going forward is to keep up with it weekly, but not be so stressed about doing it daily.

@christelleespinosa3785 Месяц назад

lord a whole year- can not imagine go get ur kindle break fr 😂😂 that library looks rly cool

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

I still don’t know how I made it 🤭 I have a couple books to finish on there before I can take a true break, but I’m looking forward to picking up a paperback soon!

@loveycricut Месяц назад

I have used mine every day for years, but I messed up when I went to Hawaii and put on airplane mode. Something happened and I lost one day, starting me all over. I'm back at 112 days and 312 weeks.

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

WOAH 😳

@user-bl4xv4dx2t 3 дня назад

I subscribed and liked this video NOT because she drinks or swears, but because she READS...

@AdventuresInPages 3 дня назад

Oh bud, I drink, swear a fuck ton, AND I read. I contain ✨multitudes✨

@sylwuskak7065 Месяц назад

I have two Kindle's and two Onyxes. And I use all of them almost every day 😂 Well... I can say, I'm addicted to reading.

@g.r.s5200 12 дней назад

Bed time story after work for me then. Great

@mozelac Месяц назад

i cared about the streak for the first 2 months then realized how toxic it lowkey is. I just maintain my daily habit of reading at least 1 hour a day instead

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

I get that! It started to feel that way for me around 6-7 months and then stopped and became daily habit instead.

@mozelac Месяц назад

@@AdventuresInPages Yea, it really started to give me burn out cause it became a chore to read, not a fun habit! Not that I've allowed myself to read more physical books again, I am enjoying reading much more. Also accepting that not all DNF is the same. I usually DNF a book if I don't want to read it 1-2 in a row but pick it back up after a couple months when I'm more int he mood for it. I'd rather DNF a potentially good back in the first few paragraphs if I'm just not in the mood for it. I finish books so much quicker physically too, when I'm in the mood for the kind of read.

Incredible ❤🎉 dedicated 👏

@Thetrilingualreader Месяц назад

I did the same with my kindle. I didnt want to wait and be forced into buying a new thing bc amazon doesnt ship here and i dont personally want to support them anw so i found a new one in the box on a used tech website. I dont have the oasis, i have a kindle basic for 11 years now and what happened is a pixel kind of burst? Idk in the screen and i was like ok i am not going to wait until i am literally stranded bc i need it for my migraines bc of the consistent font. So i definitely understand where you are coming from.

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

Yes exactly! Just wanted to get ahead of it

@niksnic86 Месяц назад

I wondered which kindle you have and if you’d do a “one year later” review. How does it work 365days later? Congratulations on this achievement 🎉

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

Ooh that’s a nice idea

@vmpapillon8984 24 дня назад

I have used mine for years and I read almost every day because I love it (not as a challenge). Like you I use kindle unlimited as well a lot but recently I have come to realize that I am missing something if I only read on my kindle. Have you had this experience too? I like the romances and some of the fantasies but somehow I haven't read a lot of "5 star -this is fantastic it will stay with me for years" through KU. These have mostly come from my bookshelves for some reason.

@AdventuresInPages 24 дня назад

Yes and no. I think because I don’t exclusively use KU to read on my kindle. I get books via Libby too and have had 5 star experiences from both places. There are genres that I tend to only via audiobook though so if I stopped doing that I would definitely feel the same way.

@ivanamurphy6917 Месяц назад

I live for a small town romance 😍

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

It’s quickly become one of my favorite subgenres!

@andryagarcya3655 Месяц назад

How often did you have to recharge your kindle?

@AdventuresInPages Месяц назад

Hmm every 2-3 weeks maybe? I have this fear that I’m going to forget one day and need it for several hours and it’s only on 10% battery so I charge it as soon as it hits like 35%

@andryagarcya3655 Месяц назад

@@AdventuresInPages That’s awesome. I heard that charging it before it hits 20% is better for the battery. Thanks for the video, makes me want to read more.
