If I give you a list of my audible wishlist, Shirley, will you do my research for me? Just kidding!

[Janice, Moderator]

Woohoo! I found one. I just purchased Gone With a Handsomer Man for $2.99 on Kindle and $2.99 on Audible whispersync. That's $6.00 for the book in two different formats. One down... three to go towards my $10 coupon.

Just remember must be at least price.
I promise to keep buying and posting those "buys".
Bet you can't buy just one. lol

[Janice, Moderator]

It counted towards my required 4 books. I now have 3 books to get. I recently bought The Hangman's Daughter and sequels on Kindle for $.99 each. I can get the audiobooks on Audible for $1.99 each, but the regular price is under $14.00 so they won't count towards the sale.

[Lynn]

Blummin 'eck Kimberly, that's a lot of books and free too!

Can I ask is reviewing your job? As I have no idea how you would fit all the books you do read in with working too.

[Shirley]

WOW great selection of books.

I transferred a lot of my kindle books to the fire recently and couldn't believe the number in the library.....over 9700 and so many were free books.

Sure like cookbooks on the fire.

[Amber]

I can't find the thread we were using to post about books on sale, etc, so I'm posting it here.

For anyone who uses a Nook for ebooks, BN is currently running a 50% off sale on their top 1000 ebooks.

I love non fiction now that I listen to books.

[Cherie]

Do you think it is easier to listen to non fiction than fiction? Did you avoid non fiction before?

[Shirley]

I think it is an acquired ability. I am getting pretty good at "listening" instead of wandering. It became such an effort to read a book that it was a necessity.

I would NEVER read non fiction before audible. I find it like someone telling me their story and I want to read more and more of them.

I have to keep checking for the kindle books that are becoming combos ... The price for these four audibles was $12.96 total because I have the kindle books.

I am now listening to a book for 4 - 6 hours every morning.

Sure is great for meeting challenges ... 55 books already this year. Including door stoppers.

[Pragya]

Thank you, Kimberly. Got them. :)

I have a review blog so it's more of a hobby. Most of the kindle freebies I get won't be read for ages and I download them on to my Mister's Ipad and he's the one reading a lot of 'em lately. :)

My downfall is the books posted in Around the world in 80 books group. So many are free and introduce countries I will never physically visit.
