So if I don't have a Kindle, I just use the web app for PC?
That's insane troll logic!

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Yup!
I got the kindle app for my phone, but I admit I'm far more likely to read off the actual Kindle.
And damn, I just bought four Heyer novels. Woops!

That's awesome! Wow, I can think of a dozen free books I'd like through Gutenberg, too.

Okay, that is COOL. I'm already done and have four books!
This has been an I Love Technology day, man. Thanks again, flea.

Somehow it hadn't occurred to me that all of E. Nesbit would be in the public domain. Also, I see that all of poor H. Beam Piper is available. He wasn't around to renew the copyright, and I suppose he had no heirs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Nook! Nook!
Wahhhh.... I too have the apps for my everything--PC, Mac, phone, tablet, but reading on the Nook is the best experience.. Points to them.

Awww, I'm pretty sure I'm the only other person here who knows that name, though DXM might.

Piffle, David! I read tons of Piper when I was younger.
And he's getting some new attention, because Little Fuzzy got rebooted by John Scalzi this year. Paid for fanfiction!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I read a bunch of Piper ages ago. And I remember some of it, which is the more surprising part for me.
