Val, you have a gorgeous Galaxy s2, just install Kindle on that for FREE (though not the books of course)! And you can also download other reader apps to read other formats.

aww but the kindle app is great as you can increase the font size and pages wrap the text around smoothly, you can still try it! But anyway, your Kindle will be lovely and of course feel a lot better in your hands, with a bigger non glaring screen. Look forward to your comments on it :)

Don't go for a colour that's too light if you plan on having it in your bag often. Mine is light blue and is getting smudged from being carried around.
