Unfortunately, I don't think you'll get help opening the file on goodreads. If you got the e-book from a vendor (amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, etc.) you'll need to contact them (or the vendor or manufacturer of your device - Kindle, Nook, etc.) for help.
You might also check with your local library. I work at our library, and we have people on staff to help with these kinds of questions!(less)

For example, people describe very detailed memories the day JFK was assassinated. The memories may not necessarily be exactly correct but they have much more clarity than usual for the person remembering.(less)
