How to highlight and save notes with free Kindle for PC app.
I hate reading on a screen and would take a paper book if it weren't so expensive. Originally, I paid $200 for this text at the local store. I returned it and rented this as an eBook for the semester through mid February (about $45). I can extend the rental for about 5 cents a day. My eyes get red reading on a screen but it helps to turn down the brightness on my computer. I downloaded the free Kindle for PC app in order to buy this as an eBook so I didn't have to buy a Kindle or other before making sure I would be ok to use an electronic book. With the money I saved I might consider a basic Kindle in the future since I hate the computer glare. Many people in other reviews complained that you can't highlight in the free PC version but I just figured it out and I am far from tech savvy. It is not an option on the toolbar. You just have to highlight the text with your cursor. Then a window pops up below the highlighted text with options. You then click on the "highlight" option and the highlighted text goes from grey to light yellow and stays that way when you click off of it. You can copy paste the text onto a word document and is automatically accompanied by the proper citation from the publisher. I believe it even includes the page number. The options that pop up when you highlight text are: Highlight; Add Note; Copy; More (Book extras by Shelfari; Dictionary; Google; Report Content Error; Search this book; Wikipedia). Below those options is a gear icon for other settings. There you have the option of choosing the language of your dictionary (several to choose from). I have only tried the highlight option.

Rented this book for my Early Childhood class. Made it difficult not to make marks or take notes in it but since the previous person did some note taking it made it a little easier. Just used alot of sticky notes. Was a heck of alot cheaper to rent this than to buy it!
