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."

Thrive to spite them

I use the Send to Kindle option for PDFs and MOBI files.

Download the Send to Kindle app and then use it to send files directly to your Kindle without having to plug it in.

Download the file on AO3 (or something else, I do this for Ravelry patterns as well) then go to the file, right click and Send to Kindle. It will send it the next time you're connected to Wi Fi.

With PDF files you'll have to change the author because it will save it under your name.

Hey. New board.

Oh, my library can top that - how about having the first, third, fourth and fifth books in the Kate Daniels series, but not the second? At least they do have a paperback copy of it in the actual physical library.

I think I ran into a similar problem with the Nicholas Flamel series, actually, which is probably why I own one of them on Kindle but not the other five. I wonder if it's a conspiracy?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I just finished Assassin's Apprentice for a book club, and have since discovered that it is the only book in the trilogy of trilogies not available in Kindle format at the Brooklyn library. Way to go, publisher! (See Tech thread for my agonizing tale of Adobe PDF DRM hell.)

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I'm gonna assume that the ASSCAP one was sent in the form of a telegram, as the notion of being the recipient of such indiscriminate shouting pains my soul.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Teppy! Kingdom of the Wicked is on its way to me!

I ordered mine, but I haven't gotten a shipment notice. Where did you order it from? t edit I ordered from Amazon UK, and I just checked my order status, and it says it will ship on August 31, with expected delivery between September 7 and 12. Booooo.

Amazon.co.uk - I got an e-mail saying it had been dispatched with an estimated arrival date of Sept 17. So, a bit of wait still.

Soooo, mine hasn't been shipped but will get here sooner, and your HAS shipped but will get here later (all theoretically)?

England makes no sense to me.
