My only problem is the formatting I have for files that I "send" to the app using my kindle email. For example, I downloaded a book to review for OBC and the spacing is so erratic! There are double spaces every two lines, so it's really hard to tell whether the paragraph is actually ending or whether it was cut in half (or sometimes thirds or fourths!)
I'm assuming that it's either the fault of the author or a problem with the file type..I selected a .mobi file (because it is the KINDLE app, after all) but maybe next time I'll select .pdf instead and see how that works out.

I think it's partly because the books in the series are so big that I just have to focus on small parts of it rather the whole. Also, I think it's because I can take it anywhere and pull up the book to read a few pages. So I definitely like to read on my smartphone with certain books.

But most smartphones have at least 4 inch display. You can also increase the font size to a bigger level. The main advantage of smartphones is its portability and also you don’t need to carry anything extra as mobiles phones have now become a necessity in everyone’s lives.
