I have the kindle version of Lord of the Rings (since my Tolkien paperbacks tend to become deciduous the long term plan is to have hardbacks and kindle versions), and while I am waiting to repair or replace the kindle (screen cracked in freak accident) I am reading my kindle stuff on my tablet having downloaded a free app at amazon which works quite well.
