Kindle Editor's Review

Read your favorite eBooks on your Mac or on your PC with some of the best software available on the internet.

I've been an eBook advocate since 2002 when I began reading books with Microsoft Reader. It was one of the best main streamed options at the time, AND it worked well with PocketPC's, which, in my opinion were the best kind of PDA on the market at the time.  (Truth be told, I was never fond of PalmOS or Blackberries, the other two major mobile choices at the time).

Amazon is the king of eBooks, and has been since the modern smartphone came into being after the introduction of the original iPhone back in 2007.  Their Kindle hardware was revolutionary Their Kindle software available for any number of smartphones as well as your Windows PC or Mac allows you to read your eBooks where and when you want; and the software, is a total must have.

Kindle is a free application that lets you read Kindle eBooks on your Windows PC or on you Mac. Kindle offers most of the features you would find on a Kindle, Kindle DX, or other Kindle applications for computers and mobile devices.  The best thing about it is that it allows you to automatically save and sync your last read page and all of your annotations across all your Kindle devices and hardware.  You can also browse Amazon's huge eBook library and purchase as well as download and read thousands of books from the Kindle Store.

The software interface is customizable.  You can change font sizes and adjust the number of words that appear on each line.  You can also change the number of columns that appear on a single page.  If you're reading a book for school or some other academic project, you'll be pleased to know that you can add and view notes and highlights in your books. You'll also be able to sync your annotations to all your Kindle apps and devices. You can even view Kindle Print Replica books, which are exact replicas of physical textbooks.

App Pro’s: Free, WhisperSync last page read and annotations across all Kindle devices

App Con’s: Hard to get non-Kindle Store books in the app, Won't run on OS X Yosemite Beta 7 or earlier

Conclusion: Amazon's Kindle app is, in my opinion, the best eBook reading app available today. It is powered by the Kindle Store, which has the biggest library of eBooks on the internet. The software is device agnostic, meaning you can put the software on just about any computing device you have – PC, Mac, iDevice, Android, Windows Phone, etc. – and it will sync your progress across all devices.  The only issue I have with the app is that its not easy to put non-Kindle eBooks in the app. It will work with ePub, but you might have to convert older eBooks to ePub (or other compatible format), and that isn't always the easiest thing to do.
