Thanks! I didn’t know there was a new Ariana Franklin until I saw this list.

Oh, I am so buying the Fiona Harper book. And I didn’t know Kathleen O’Reilly had another book out–I absolutely love her writing.

Thanks for the Fiona Harper recommendation – I’ve just spent a very happy hour or so with that and added a couple of others of hers to my TBR pile.

This is great … oh, wait, I can’t buy Changeless as an ebook, thank you so much, Orbit. I tried, I really, really wanted this book, but it’s the library for me. Ms. Carriger, I’m more sorry than I can say.

@Ros I should have a review up soon. Really enjoyed it.

@Darlynne I know. Doesn’t it suck? Hopefully it will be available on Monday or so. That’s what Amazon had announced – that it was taking a couple of days to make the switch over and they have just come to an agreement with the publisher on April 1

@Jane: Yes, but I don’t have a Kindle. Although I’ve tried to stay current with the ways around ebook restrictions, I don’t think I can read the kindle format on my netbook, right?

@Darlynne: No, you can download Kindle for PC and read Kindle books on your netbook.

I’m making a list for now of books from the big 5. I read on my Palm handheld, and so while the Briggs and Beverly are both in my “must read” category, I’ll start with the library — and then see if I can wait out the current ebook mess.

I just read Silver Borne by Patricia Briggs and I loved it!!

Greewnwillow is a HarperCollins imprint. This book has disappeared from the Sony ebookstore which is where I purchased it, but it should be easy to find in libraries since it’s part of an award-winning YA series.
