The app is great, if you like ebooks. I am trying to give ebooks a second chance but there isn't anything that beats going to the bookstore.

Part two of the wedding from hell. These are short ebooks but I loved the flow and ease with the characters. In 2 short ebooks I have become very attached and looking forward to the next stage! Think we have another BDB quality of series here!!! I can't wait

An annoying dilemma: Do I use my gift cards to get books that I need but are ebooks or wait for the new hardback books that are releasing in February?

Acanthrea so am I. The only reason for the e books was because I wasn't sure if I'd like the series and there were 12 books at that time. Silly me. Now he's (Jim Butcher's) up to 16 or so books I'm missing two of them. Plus I just read the series everything is fresh. The hardbacks are also a continuation of a series although one is a new series so it is a second book but I like things to match. I'll more than likely buy the hard backs then wait and save for the other. luckily e books are on average cheaper than physical books if not as satisfying to hold.

Ohhh oooh, I love Jim Butcher. I need to read some more of the Dresden files. I’d definitely go for those hardbacks!

And I get you on the ebooks being cheaper (usually). In fact when I see an ebook at the same price as the physical or near it, I tend to narrow my eyes and say, “Really? You’re going to charge that much for a digital file?” It tends to ward me off too, and oftentimes I just go to the library.

I did cave and spend the 10 or 11 bucks for Sometimes I Lie though, and that was totally worth it.

Great app
The app allows you to read books from your tablet or phone. You can get ebooks from a number of sources and read them all through this app.

I always look on the author sites for ebooks now before I purchase from Amazon

I agree with your review and your comment about the book police. I have started to do the same - look at author sites first.
