So far I'm really enjoying my Kindle. It will never take the place of "real" books, but it definitely has its benefits. I knew there were places other than Amazon from which I could downloads things to read, but didn't take that step until Dorte posted about putting a collection of her work at Smashwords. That prompted me to check it out. Not only did I download Dorte's collection, I also got one by Kathryn Grant that Dorte shared a preview of . (I already have a novel by Grant that I downloaded from Amazon)
Since I'm moving along nicely with my reading challenges for the year, I decided to take a break over the weekend and read both of these collections (in addition to catching up on some magazines). What fun they both were!! Quick, light reading with just the right touch of humor and "dark" twists! One collection was free, the other only 99 cents... a bargain any way you look at it!!

My mother-in-law loves her kindle. I was impressed the way she was able to read it outside even in the bright sunshine. She has managed get quite a few free books through Amazon as well.
What a wonderful Friday!
This is the second mention of "Candied Crime" I have found today. Thank you so much for your kind words, and I am glad you also liked Cathryn´s stories. She is a great blog friend, and she has encouraged me SO much on my way to becoming a published author.
Joey - Yep, I'm learning if you look you can find lots of good free stuff.
Dorte - You're more than welcome!! I've enjoyed all your work and I look forward to another collection along with the full Knavesborough Cozy Mystery!
