Als jemand mit chronisch schlechtem Gedächtnis für Handlungs- und Charakterdetails wünsche ich mir so ein Feature seit Jahren.
Aber lasst das doch bitte von den Autor*innen schreiben und bezahlt sie idealerweise noch dafür. Oder crowdsourced das irgendwie. Aber doch bitte, bitte nicht per KI ...

Screenshot: "For fans of book series, recalling plots and characters after a long reading break or a wait between new releases can be a challenge. Kindle’s “Recaps” feature works much like the “Previously on…” segment before a TV show. Available on both Kindle devices and the Kindle app for iOS in the U.S., Recaps makes it easier for you to dive into the next book in your favorite series by providing a quick refresher on storylines and character arcs in Kindle books you own or have borrowed."

Lots of people ask about e-readers here so I am going to do the same. I have a TON of readings to do lately for classes. Mostly PDFs of research documents. Think published scholar journal documents, so two column (mostly), tiny font. Lately I've been printing them and reading them on the couch as its easier than reading with a laptop. Plus I can highlight passages with is helpful. While I love using a kindle to read books, its never done well with PDF documents, not to mention moving th…

To portray a mind as a kind of high-powered survival machine orchestrated and controlled by genes is, then, fundamentally a misconceived picture of what minds are.

Starting January 20, 2026, you'll be able to download any books that you've purchased from the Amazon Kindle store, where the author or publisher declines to use DRM, in ePub or Kindle format. Which means you'll finally OWN that ebook.

I remember a time where you had to pick a competitor in an industry based on who you think will still be around in twelve months and who has a product that works on the devices that you own. (Example: Nook vs Kobo vs Kindle for ebooks or iTunes vs Amazon VOD vs Microsoft Movies and TV for streaming movies) I miss the days when it was still that simple.

I’m will get sister’s Kindle too, they don’t use theirs, and it’s a newer model with a better e-ink display than mine. I read a lot of anarchist theory on my jailbroken Kindle.
Technically, a jailbroken Kindle can even run Linux, but for me, it is more just so I can free it from Amazon’s walled garden than anything else.

I stopped buying books (or anything, really) from Amazon years ago, when it became apparent the working conditions at their many processing centres are appalling and they were actively busting unions. I have never regretted that stance, and I have always been able to find the books, etc. I need from other sources.
I hope more authors — and big name ones too — will follow this lead.
