'The Train Job'
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."
I love the Kindle app on my iPhone and iPad. Now I can carry vampire books with me ALL THE TIME.
(However, I am always going to be the teensiest bit bitter about the ebook revolution. Goddammit, Microsoft Reader was great, and if the PTB had listened to some of us, it would have been a major player in the market. Grrrr.)
One of my biggest loves of my nook is that I can convert really long fics into epubs and put them on there and not have to be pushing the down button on my Palm every second to get to the next screen. Plus, italics that work.
Yes--thanks to a rec from Connie I am reading an EPIC Hermoine fic on my kindle. Wheee!
meara-- is that the one from FFN? because if so, I should warn you, it's a big ragged. I skimmed a lot. Loved the content, but the presentation needs some work.
Yep, that one. It's better than a lot of the free/cheap stuff on amazon! The formatting came out a bit weird but it's reminding me a bit of the fake news article about the books being about Hermoine--I am quite enjoying something from her viewpoint. I haven't read much potterfic in years.
How did you get it in one file?
Downloaded a program designed to get things off FFN actually--I read the first couple chapters online and then realized how long it is...ice been reading it for hours (and I read fast--usually finish a book in an hour or two) and I'm only 30% done.
So I spent my vacation mainlining George RR Martin and was finally able to start ADWD when I got back without being totally lost. AFFC definitely improves on reread (mainly because this time I wasn't skimming through all the Iron Islands chapters going "YOU'RE BORING WHERE THE FUCK ARE TYRION AND DAENERYS???") but man, it's good to be back with the Northern characters again. I'm remarkably unspoiled too, which is surprising since I did read all the whitefont in this thread when it first came out.
Ha, your character preferences are my character preferences! I bought adwd while on the road but didn't make much progress with the busy nature of my summers. But I have a week or two now, so I expect to blaze through pretty quick now that I'm home.
"YOU'RE BORING WHERE THE FUCK ARE TYRION AND DAENERYS???"
This is pretty much me, if you add Jon Snow, and I'm only on A Clash of Kings. I do like Davos Seaworth so far, though. Crap, I hope I got that name right.
