Bookcision: Saving Your Kindle Highlights

I love reading. In fact, my goal is to read thirty books this year. (I’ve made it through eleven so far! When I read, I often highlight interested or challenging passages, especially if it’s something I could use in a book or blog post or share in a sermon. That’s why, for the longest time, I was so frustrated with my Kindle and how it had all of my highlights on lock-down. Thankfully, I seen found a service that allowed me to pull notes off of my Kindle device.

But then, two years ago, I switched to an iPad, which meant that I didn’t have an easy way to get my highlights.

Until now!
