Thanks for reading, Susan! The Mini is indeed a great device for reading and my reading stats for the last week speak volumes about that as evidence.

I have heard a lot about Libby but unfortunately, it doesn’t have any local library partnerships in the country I live in.

Since you mentioned using Apple Books on your iPad Mini, may I suggest another one of my story on the Books app?
