There are two types - one with built in internet that is a little more expensive and one that can pick up on wireless internet which is the one I have.
You can use the internet on the kindle to download books direct onto it, but you don't have to connect via the kindle itself. It comes with a cable that you can attach to your home computer to download & transfer the books from your computer onto the kindle. You can also just browse the internet on it but it's a lot slower than using a normal computer.
You can also put PDFs on there so lots of longer fics and big bangs and stuff could be put on there for you to read later.
You can buy the books direct from Amazon or you can download them from some sites for free. If you get one there are a couple of communities on here where people share their books and you could get some free ones from there too (I've just taken 4 or 5 from there recently and they all work on my kindle)
The battery on it lasts for ages, I've read a couple of books on it before I need to charge it usually, it comes with a plug to do that or it will charge up whenever you connect it to your computer.
I've got about 20 books on it at the moment and I have 3000 MB free (a big book is about 2MB so you're looking at over 1500 books you can have on it at any one time).
It's lighter than a book to lift and the pages are laid out just like a book so you have a front cover etc too. However even though they're electronic they're not lit up like a phone like you might expect.
Hope that helps, just ask if you have any more questions honey
:D

No you don't need wireless internet, you can download the books you want onto your own computer and transfer them to the kindle with the cable that they send to you with the kindle.
You go onto the amazon site and select kindle store, all the books are there and all you do is just pay as normal then a screen comes up for you to choose whether the books is going to be sent via internet to your kindle or whether you want to transfer it via your computer. If you choose to transfer it via the computer then you can just hook up your kindle and pop it into the folder that comes up, it's really easy - trust me, I'm not great with technology but it's very simple to figure out.
