Yeah, yeah, yeah. I have been using computerized stuff since 1983. I know the ropes. For example, I tapped the top to get the menu many times, and most of the time it didn't appear.

No, it wasn't a used Kindle.

Why did I want to delete books I had read? Because there was no down arrow on the list of downloaded books, so I could not access all I had loaded.

It may be something about my fingers - too cold, too small, too dry, not salty enough? I generally have a hard time with touch screens.   

The DH wants to try it, so I haven't sent it back. As for me, I will head to the library.
