It's a 3 books-for-2 credits sale, out of a pre-selected 100+; I did a quick once-through and found two that interested me, but now have to take a more serious look. Sadly for me, none of the series that I'm currently listening to are there. don't know how they managed to miss all of them! A large number of the choices are nonfiction, but I also saw a fair number of PNRs

Congratulations, Christine!!
And great challenge! I just finished a book that would have qualified for triple points :( but am starting one today that also qualifies :) so I'm off to a good start, and you're right - there's plenty more where that came from!

Christine (cdunbar) | 635 comments Yeah, if you have a list started somewhere else other than Goodreads, then that counts, too. I only started at the beginning of 2010, so all my 2009 stuff is on Amazon as well. =)

Aman..."


I don't know - maybe we should vote? :P LOL!

I got it as an ebook - on my first go-round, I got all but book 2 from the library (I bought book 2 off the cheap shelves at B&N before I realized it was 2nd), but when I was ready to re-read, I ordered 1, 3 and 4 as ebooks. Then I pre-ordered the ebook so I could have it right away (and it was only $9.99).

Dee (austhokie) | 7316 comments can we take a vote on my dilemma?? the audible credit is sitting in my account all paid for (from December) - i've been saving it...will I reset if I get shadowfever, or will you guys take pity on me (i'd really prefer the latter)


message 4497: by Christine (new)

Christine (cdunbar) | 635 comments If it was any other book I think I would say 'reset', but it's Shadowfever. Everyone should be allowed to buy this book without penalty on its release date.


message 4498: by Dee (new)

Dee (austhokie) | 7316 comments i'll go with whatever everyone decides...I haven't updated my count yet - because if i'm going to reset tomorrow, i'm too lazy to do the math on the audiobook I finished


ஐ Katya (Book Queen)ஐ (katyabookqueen) You already paid for the credit Dee. It's like a wishlist book coming in on PBS. Go for it.
