I don't love the Hoopla app myself, but I reconcile myself to it when it's a case of long waiting lists at OverDrive. It's an option I'm glad to have, especially for audiobooks.

The copy I am reading - on an Android phone - has a reading group guide, along with notes and bibliography appendices. |

Catlady, I understand your reluctance to use Hoopla. You could check out the book from Hoopla in order to see the pictures and notes and use it to supplement the audiobook. Just another thought. |

Every now and again, I Google to get instructions, but the process seems either too dicey or too complex and I back out. Mainly I'd like to be able to buy from Audible UK, because many of the authors I'm addicted to are Brits and their books aren't always making it to my side of the pond, or else are late getting here. But then again, with about 600 books on various library or store wish lists, not to mention my backlog of unread books, do I truly need to add UK sources?

There's a couple days left before discussion starts, so there's time to review if you need to. |

Does anyone know of another ebook store (outside of Amazon UK) where The Radium Girls is available for less than €10?
EDIT: Never mind, was able to find it for €5.70 through a Kobo affiliate Last edited by Dutchbook; 06-26-2018 at 02:40 AM. |
