But still, yay! Drew has been waiting to borrow books from my kindle for ages. One a month total, though? Not so yay.
This is different. Lending a Kindle book you have purchased to somebody else is just like the Nook: I believe you can lend each book you have purchased exactly one time, for up to 2 weeks at a time. Some books don't let you do it, but most do. And I don't think there's a restriction on how often you can lend/borrow, if you're doing different books each time.
The Lending Library is something else again: Amazon is essentially allowing you to borrow books from
them
with different rules. Those are the once-a-month but as long as you want borrows. I read that Amazon is actually paying the publishers each time a book is borrowed, essentially eating the cost of the books, at least right now. They're trying to convince the publishers that it could bring in revenue somehow.
Meg and I simply share an Amazon account so we don't have to use the lend feature to lend books to each other. But I have lended Kindle books to friends now and again.
You can share an Amazon account across two Kindles? I mean, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to--I have my Nook library loaded on all my devices except my PC, and that's because I never relax with it. But it's on 5 others.
You can share an Amazon account across two Kindles?
Yes, or any other Kindle-app devices. I have my account on 2 Kindles, my iPhone and my iPad.
Yeah, we have ours on 2 kindles, my old iPhone, Meg's iPhone, my Android, my work PC, Meg's work PC, and my Mac laptop.
Yeah, I've got the Kindle app on my phone, laptop, and iPad. Which means I can have Dracula, Something Wicked This Way Comes, and The Night Circus with me ALL THE TIME.
I'm trying to make shelves on my Nook, and I can't because everything that's not YA or SFF has nothing to do with each other. I just get impulses. I hope I do actually finish Fear Of Flying, though.
I have to read The Night Circus. I should pay my library fines, because I've way overbought books recently.
ita, shelve it in YA. That's when I read it!
I made a Shelf called General for hte stuff that's not various flavors of fic or mystery series.
Amy, you MUST read The Night Circus! I need more people to wibble at about it! It's a gorgeous book. And (very importantly to me), while it is gorgeous and I want to live in it, it doesn't fill me with despair about what
*I'M*
writing. Which, yes, I was worried about before I read it.
