OverDrive READ Format on a Second Generation Kindle Fire

Kindle Fire users can enjoy the OverDrive READ format on their second generation device. The first generation Kindle Fire doesn't seem to handle the format as nicely.

The OverDrive READ format loads the entire eBook into the tablet's browser. Kindle Fire users might have less use of this format, since the Kindle Fire is a, well, Kindle. But there are times when a title isn't yet available in the Kindle Book format through OverDrive and might be available in the OverDrive READ format. Here's how it works:

Using the web browser of your Kindle Fire 2, log into the service. Browse to find and borrow an eBook that is available in OverDrive Read format.

You'll be brought to the bookshelf once you've tapped the "Borrow" button. Select the "READ In Your Browser" button to open the eBook in OverDrive READ format.

If you find the font too small for your liking. (It always is for me!) Find the font settings by dragging the screen downwards and tapping the small "paragraph" icon for font settings. 

Tap on "Book Default" next to font size to select a specific size font. 

Tap elsewhere on the screen to close the settings. Note the small star icon at the bottom right of the screen. Consider bookmarking the title to add it to your favorites.
