In My Mailbox #11

Sunday 4 March 2012.







In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren. This is where we share what we have bought/received/borrowed throughout the week.





First off, this week, I had to replace my Kindle. The screen is damaged. I think (no one has admitted to it though) that one of the kids might have knocked it down. Anyone else have any problems with Kindle screens? I'm starting to believe them, usually one of them would have told by now.




I did have the keyboard one previously but found I hardly used the keyboard so just went for the basic one this time. And I actually prefer it! Who knew? I insured this one, just in case :)


I didn't buy any books this week but I received these from Netgalley

  

And this series too

  

What did you have in your mailbox this week?

I didn't get any books this book, but I did get my Blu ray diamond edition copy of Lady and the Tramp from the Disney Video Club!

I have the kindle touch and haven't had any problems with the screen yet but I have one of those screen protector stickers on it. Might want to invest in one of those. I need it since I touch my screen so much. I also received Grave Mercy and I am really excited!

Yay, a new kindle! It's a shame the over one broke though. ;) I haven't had any problem with mine either but I don't have children so there's no risk. Anyway, great books this week! I can't wait to see what you think of them all, especially Grave Mercy. I'm looking forward to starting that one a lot. :)

That's cool that you've got insurance on the new Kindle! Glad you like the touch version better too! Excited about Grave Mercy - the cover looks so awesome! <3
Happy Reading!

It wasn't a Kindle but the screen on my brother's Sony Reader broke and he definitely didn't drop it or anything. I think sometimes they can just be faulty. I'm glad you were able to replace it! I have the Kindle basic and see no reason why I would need a keyboard!

Nice books this week! I didn't know Angel Eyes was on Netgalley so I've just requested it now. Hope you enjoy everything! :D

Nice Kindle! I wonder if I should buy one... Reading with the kindle app' can get kind of annoying.

I'm curious to know what you think of Bite Me. I'm ready to buy it! ;)

I hate reading from the laptop. Love the Kindle, I'd be lost without it now.

Hi Suzanne, I am on my second Kindle, the first is still fine it is kindle 2 and I just wanted an upgrade, I have not had problems with the screens and my toddlers have grabbed mine and dropped it numerous times. I did have a problem with a cracked kindle case and it was under the year warranty and Amazon replaced it no problems, so if it is still under warranty contact Amazon. I think though the absolute reasin my kindle remains unscathed is because of the leather covers I got at Oberondesigns.com They are a little pricey but they are gorgeous, and sturdy and offer great protection. I higly recommend them :)

Suzanne (Parabooklover) said...

Someone else told me to contact Amazon too. I sent them an email but they said I have to call them. Its just getting around to it, you know. Trying to remember to do it when the kids aren't here, lol. I got a cover for mine this time. Thanks for your advice :)
