Not spam! Keep 'em coming if you find 'em!
I wish it was payday right now! haha. And I love the spam, Jenny. It saves me money :P
Seriously, everyone who hasn't read/doesn't own Howl's Moving Castle, The Thief, or Unearthly should buy those.
well I was on the edge about unearthly but ill get to it sooner now
Unearthly is awesome. The Thief really does look good.
I Just picked up
from amazon for 4.99. It looked good has anyone heard of this one?http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/ref=...
is on sale for $1.99 on Amazon. Haven't read it yet, but it looks interesting.http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008TSNYOO?t...

The Thief is at its usual price again but it doesn't matter. It's still affordable and seeing your enthusiasm I think I really must order it.
The Thief is awesome. A lot of the book is travel and conversation so that turns some people off to it, but Megan Whalen Turner is kind of a genius with her foreshadowing and clues and reveals. The ending is totally worth it. And Gen is probably one of my favorite characters ever in high fantasy.Edit: It's still showing at $1.99 in the US.
Oh man, I better grab it then. You and other of my friends love it, Jenny, so I need to get to it soon. (And I have the pefect excuse in the near future...muahahah!)

I did. My review will probably scare people off though. I wasn't a big fan. But...a lot of people love the book, so I'd say that anyone who loves extremely intense love stories will probably find that the book works for them. So don't let my negative review throw you off if you're in the mood for a strong love story. It might work for you.
It was just too "OMG EVERYTHING WILL FALL APART IF WE DON'T TOUCH" for my liking.
If nothing else, you can't go wrong with free. It's no risk. :) Thanks for letting us know Cristal. I love that other people have been keeping up on the free books because I've been slacking at keeping up with what's out there. It's a big help for the group!

Not sure why it's the third book that is so cheap, but if you've been wanting to read these or to have them in ebook then might as well grab it.
is free. It contains short stories from Ann Aguirre, Gennifer Albin, Elizabeth Fama and Lish McBride. These stories I think were featured on tor.com and also sold for $0.99 each in the ebook stores, but the anthology is free.Kindle: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A...

And, in case you missed it, Volume 1 is also free and contains stories from Anna Banks, Leigh Bardugo (I really liked this one), Jennifer Bosworth, Emmy Laybourne, and Marissa Meyer.Kindle: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008...

Gah I really want

The Murmurings and The Madman's Daughter sounds really good. I hope you guys get approved! :)

I'm so glad I know how to remove DRM from my ebooks. Makes it really easy for me to shop around for the best prices. :D
Can't seem to copy the link on my device but the Kindle US daily deal is $1.99 for Genesis. I think a few in the group really liked this one.

It really isn't hard, I promise! It's how I was able to get
for Nook. Jenny pointed out it was being sold on Kobo but not Amazon or B&N so I just bought it on the Kobo website and removed the DRM. I think removing DRM has a really bad reputation.

It's considered a sketchy thing because books can be shared once the DRM is off, but I understand why people would want to purchase books and use them for the type of reader that pertains to them. Anyway, I will back away from that discussion here because it's like opening a can of worms.

Im sure that is probably a wise move haha in other news Kindle AUS does not like having sales!

There's been a lot of argument over whether removing DRM, even for your own personal use, is legal or not. DRM is fucking stupid. It
COMPLETELY
(and yes, I did just caps bold italics underline that shit) fails at being of any use whatsoever to its intended purpose of preventing piracy. It takes a simple Python script and less than one second to remove the DRM from something. All DRM does is hinder honest people from accessing their media on multiple devices. Why so many people and companies are incapable of understanding or accepting these simple and proven facts is beyond me. Everyone should be like Tor and go DRM-free. That's all I'm gonna say about it.I like sales.
You guys get hosed over there. I'm sorry about that. :(Books on Board has a 33% off promo code for the week : gumdrop. I've never used them, but it looks like they have ebooks and audio. http://www.booksonboard.com/index.php...
Id go completely to ebooks if they didnt cost me over 13 dollars half the time!

This is an indie 'New Adult/Mature YA' book that I'm reading right now. It has sexual situations, and is more romance with romantic intrigue, but I'm really enjoying it so far, I'm at 45%. (I'll review fully later today when I'm finished.)
Just thought I'd mention it in case anyone else wanted to give it a shot.

An adult series, but I know there's a few fans in the group and I'm about to check it out, since I've been reading her YA series.The author just put the first 5 books of Elemental Assassin up for sale today for $2.99. I'm assuming that this is because book 8 in the series comes out soon (which is currently up on Edelweiss).
