Try e bay KP, I have ordered a second hand one in good condition for under £5.

Done this before and had no problems at all. I once bought 2 books for half the price of what one of them new would have cost me.

Try e bay KP.

They were through ebay. There is another copy, free postage and the buy it now price of £5.50 or best offer. I've offered £4. I just need to wait and see. If not Amazon market place have at a similar price.

Not sure if anyone knows this or not, but you can download a free kindle app to your PC from Amazon. So no big pay out for a kindle, and you can download the books as you would to the Kindle itself. Some free ones too.

I have had mine for a while, but forgot doh :rolleyes:

I have the free download link if anyone wants it, for windows 7, Vista and XP. Probably more if you look into it. But it is one click and it downloads is seconds.

My offer was rejected, so I have ordered off Amazon market place. £3.49, delivery by 9th Feb. Fingers crossed please.

Got mine- waiting to start it because I am a fast, fast reader. Want to try to pace myself and read along with the schedule, rather than devouring it in one night.

Just read a really good one that way Friday: Dick Francis' Dead Heat. I love chef books, and this was a mystery novel about a chef plus a lot of horse-racing stuff and a sweet romance. I really enjoyed it & started reading it out loud to my husband, who immediately stole it.

What about having a thread for recommending books, but not for group read? Just for people to look over and try new authors?

Thanks Angel, I love Dick Francis.

This is kind of that thread... as what is posted in here does not get used for book club choices.

I've just started reading one of the 'Shopoholic' books by Sophie Kinsella, great chick lit escapism :p

 

[NIKI]

I'm on board. I just ordered my book. :)

Got my books last week, haven't started it yet because of school, but I will definitely start tomorrow while waiting for my class to start.

Just had a confirmation E-Mail that my Tigers Wife book has been posted. So it should be here by Friday.
