My Kindle Fire is losing 97% of charge after 1.5 hours reading. Help?

Hello

If the battery isn't too far gone, here's how to revive it:

1.Plug the device into the Kindle A/C adapter (not your computer) and let it charge for a few hours.
2.If you still see the same Critical Battery screen after charging, unplug the USB cord, then hold the power slide to the right for at least 20 seconds.
