Reading habits in Mexico

So what you would see next to my bed would be a kindle with books mostly in English but a few in Spanish.
on occasion, I buy a newspaper. My reading interest is wide-ranged. Education science, misteries, health and just fun.

I have a NOOK reader with many, many books. I purchase mostly from Barnes and Noble's $1.99/$2.99 Bookbub offers. I occasionally purchase books at full price, and I have a few books in Spanish, although reading Spanish is rather slow. I read mostly at night. Like travellight, my interests are varied.

We settled in a town where the marinas, drydocks, hurricane holes and anchorages made a welcome place for US sailors to visit. So we're fortunate to have a number of places where English books can be swapped...drop off the ones already read for new ones. Best of all is an exchange library, maybe the best-organized one we've seen along the coast of Mexico, well-tended by volunteers though only open once day a week for a couple of hours. I've been doing a lot of reading, maybe more than in decades now that I'm semi-retired. I only wish we could help establish such a library for the Mexicans in our community, or expand the one we have to be bilingual.

I am, and have always been, a voracious reader. There are some expats here in Puerto Penasco, Sonora that do a monthly newspaper and they have a good sized book selection to borrow from. I have really extended my reading subjects through that by reading some books I would never purchase for myself (i.e. biographies of Barbara Bush and Barbara Walters). I also read the local newspaper in Spanish and anything else I can get my eyes on!

I just purchased a 128 GB flash drive that works in both USB and iphone plugs. I will download ebooks and journal articles to the flash drive and read on my iphone or iPad. I think it will be a compact way to carry reading material with me while traveling.
I usually bring just one hardbound book with me because I like the feel of a real live book in my hands. I usually read just about anything non-fiction.
I spent two months in Oaxaca City this past summer and they have a FANTASTIC lending library. They host community events, intercambios, exercise classes, etc. Many ex-pat volunteers work there and can answer any question about the city and ex-pat living in Oaxaca. They have both English and Spanish language books. There is a small cafe and terraza. There are lockers to stash your gear if you're out for the day. I paid for a year membership and really enjoyed all they had to offer. Can't recommend it strongly enough.

Hello.  I was in Oaxaca City last Feb for a week and loved it.   This year, I plan to base in PuertoVallarta for 5 months and visit other areas , hopefully with someone of like-mind.  Can you tell me how you download your books?  What source do you use?  I will have my IPad.   Or, do you think it's best to just get a Kindle?
