I've never used my kindle paper white but I have downloaded books. I was hoping to take it on holiday next week but it seems to have 'Frozen' there is a title of a book when I open it. I've no idea what to do have any of you?

Have you tried swiping right to left? I get this every time I open it. Once swiped it goes on to my current book. In my case, it's because I paid a bit less so as to enjoy suffer the ads.

Hold the on/off slider on 'on' for a long time. It should wake up eventually. My old kindle used to do that.
