I hope that most users would pick up this excellent guidebook at the early time of their Kindle ownership. One should just hang on to it to be reminded on the helpful information and tips on it. It has complete illustrated and step-by-step instructions. It also explains the operations of the Kindle Fire HD and Gen 11 Models. There are tips, tricks, and shortcuts in the shaded sidebars one will discover throughout the book. The book has easily followed chapters in the beginning of the book, and the chapters are broken down for easy access to the main topics of each subject covered. The tips are listed in the beginning of the book and also in each chapter beginning, so the reading is not so disjointed finding it. The author did this to prevent scurrying back to a cumbersome index. The book is written well for the Kindle, and this Complete Guidebook covers much helpful material. An example by a  mere touch of a tip or heading leads you to it. A tip listing, whether seen in the front or at the beginning of a chapter will explain the information of it just by touching the screen. There are  links including many cross-referencing ones to other locations of the book. It is very useful for using this book as a reference source and pursuing a particular thread of information.  I think the book is fast and easy to use to learn topics, after reading the book at least two times. Scanning isn't helpful, unless you show show a lack of interest in certain topics, or plan to place that information on hold for some time. I believe the basic topics cover the Kindle from the Introduction, and Early Setting Up Your Kindle Fire to Optimizing your Kindle Fire Settings, Getting Help, and Learning More. It is a guidebook and some material will have to be obtained by getting a manual or the inquiring mind to learn through other reliable sources. The book was written for the new user and those, that might like to have a good primer of a helpful book on the Kindle Fire HD and Gen 11 at hand to scroll through when needed. The Gen 11 and HD shown with highlights on places throughout the book, just pertaining to those models. It makes it easy to note the ones, that reference your model and pay attention to what you might need to know.
