Hope it feels better soon!

For anyone that enjoys Audible / audio books, Audible is having a great BOGO sale. It is all their best sellers. There are so many great options that I don't even know which to pick!

[Lynn, Moderator]

So what did you pick in the end?

[Kristie, Moderator]

and

I still have another credit, so I'm thinking about getting two more. We'll see. :)

[Anima]

I have got and two books I have been meaning to read for some time :)

[Anima]

Kristie, thanks for the tip :)

[Kristie, Moderator]

Let me know what you think of The Rithmatist. I looked at that one. Right now I'm thinking about these:



I'm leaning towards The Snow Child and Moon Called, but I'm not sure yet. Too many options!

[Anima]

That is interesting how the offer differs from country to country. On my list there is no Snow Child, Mercy Thompson, in fact there is only Year Zero from the above :)

[Anima]

If I have this content, I would definitely choose Mercy Thompson first novel as I really want to start this series after rave reviews from some GR friends.

[sonya]

Kristie, an update about my health: I'm getting a custom brace for my left leg. It still hurts even after a month.

[Kristie, Moderator]

Sonya - That's awful! I hope the brace helps. Constant pain like that affects everything you do.

Anima - I got the Snow Child and Year Zero. I really wanted Mercy Thompson too, but my library carries it so I went with the others. I really needed a Y for my A-Z challenge. lol

I've been reading THE SNOW CHILD and am really enjoying it, however, I would definitely pick MOON CALLED. I LOVE the Mercy Thompson series! (And it's set in my home town too!!)

[Kristie, Moderator]

I bought more credits (a three pack) and got Moon Called. lol I also got Half of a Yellow Sun and What Alice Forgot. I really need to stop now!! There are too many good books out there. :)

[Anima]

Definitely :)

[Kristie, Moderator]

I am starting a new job next month with a bit of a commute. These should definitely keep me busy!

[sonya]

kristie, found out my foot is just badly sprained. had the dr apt today for xray review. I get the brace 8-25-2014

[Kristie, Moderator]

Glad to hear it Sonya. I've heard that a bad sprain can sometimes be even worse than a break. I'm glad you saw the dr and are getting a brace for it. Hopefully, that will help it heal quicker.

[sonya]

Getting my leg brace on mon.

[Kristie, Moderator]

I feel like you had to wait SO long for that! Hope it helps.

[sonya]

It has been a long wait

Is anyone here familiar with TUEBL? I just found it and, so far, I think it's fabulous. For anyone that is not familiar with it, you can download free e-books (epub format). What I'd like to know, from anyone that has been using it for a while, is do the books expire? I recently opened a Netgalley book through my Adobe Digital, which is what I use for my TUEBL books as well, and it expired, so I can't open it anymore. I was wondering if that happens with the TUEBL books as well and, if so, is there something I need to do so that they don't get locked? Maybe transfer them to my Kindle somehow?? Any advice is helpful. Thank you!

[[deleted user]]

I just got told about TUEBL about a week ago and I love it! As far as I can tell they don't expire, when I download books from NetGalley using Adobe Digital Editions the books get a little note saying the amount of time before they expire. My TUEBL ones just say "new". I don't know what program you are using but with Adobe Digital I am able to connect my Kobo (similar to Kindle) and right click on the file and the option is there to transfer to device.

[Kristie, Moderator]

Thanks, Kelsi! I am using Adobe Digital, so I will try it. I much prefer reading on my Kindle to reading on my laptop.

[sonya]

Kristie got measured for.the brace today. Two more week wait

[[deleted user]]

No problem! Glad I could help :) Me too, reading on a computer gives me a pretty bad headache.

Geez...long process.

I have downloaded so many awesome books! I don't know when I'll ever have time to get to them all or where to start!

[[deleted user]]

haha me too! I know the feeling...I got a bit carried away!

[Savanes]

Kristie, they don't expire but since most of them are "pirate" version, the author might ask TUEBL to remove them from the site. So if you like something and you don't mind that it's not authorized by the author you should download it ASAP. :)

[Lynn, Moderator]

Forgive me, I need to break the quietness of the room .....

Aaaaarrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhh

September makes me way too stressed.

[Kristie, Moderator]

Lol!

[[deleted user]]

I definitely feel you Lynn. I am seriously regretting signing up for so many challenges. September is the worst month of the year (with December as a very close second)...and it even includes my birthday so that is saying something :P

[Kirsten]

IT'S HERE! IT'S HERE! IT'S HERE! My long personal nightmare is over! (Well, since last Friday.) My new Kindle Fire has arrived!

[Kristie, Moderator]

Yay, Kirsten!! *\o/*

[Lynn, Moderator]

HURRAH!

[Kirsten]

Wow. Have you ever clicked on the book ads GoodReads puts up? I clicked on the ad for Bitter Greens - sounds incredible.

[sonya]

Kirsten i git my brace and a sling for my sore arm

[Kirsten]

You hurt your arm?

[Kristie, Moderator]

Sonya - Glad you finally got that! Hopefully, it will get better now.

[sonya]

I gave an infection in my hand. Almost done with meds. Today last day

[Kirsten]

Good for you. My aunt had one several months back after trying to take food away from her chihuahua. (Knew I hated little dogs.)

[sonya]

Is there anyone who is getting rid of an old kindle? I'm looking for a new-to-me-one; my kindle got water splashed on it and, even after drying it in rice, does not work. Poop!

[Kirsten]

Have you called (or "chatted") with Amazon? When mine died, they offered me a brand new Kindle Fire for $99 (reg price $139).

[sonya]

I cant afford it. No cc or debit card

[Kirsten]

Yeah, my bank account took a big hit. But I'm so addicted to my Kindle.

[sonya]

Thats why I'm looking for, a cheaper one

[sonya]

If I had a way to save up, i could get the one from amazon.

[Kirsten]

WTF? Only in Florida...
