In Topic: The Cheap/Free Ebooks Thread!

there's probably a nuance i'm missing, but the download button is right there on the 'my library' ebook cover?
Hm, nope. There's no button on the cover (of any of my books, TMNT or otherwise) and the drop-down list doesn't have "download" as an option. But all of my non-TMNT books do have "download" as a drop-down option.
But it's fine; I've paid for electronic copies of the books, so I went and found copies that I can download. -

Robert Silverberg's excellent "Heart of Darkness but in space", DOWNWARD TO THE EARTH, is only $2 right now: https://amazon.com/dp/B09RPRDG5F

noting the TMNT set are Kobo ebooks, so you'll need a Kobo account for them to work. Not a problem, just fyi. The Kobo app is perfectly fine and there are (or at last were, i haven't done this in a while) ways to dl from it if you hate it.
I've exported all my other Kobo books to EPUB and brought them into Calibre to transfer to my Kindle without issue. But the TMNT books have no download option on the Kobo website; just FYI to anyone who might be expecting it. -

Am I the only one that has zero faith in Amazon or Goodreads ratings? IMHO, the vast majority of people have shit for taste.
Agreed. On Amazon, at least, I like to use the 1-star reviews to help decide if I'll enjoy a book. Complaints about "too many big words" or "wokeness" I'll usually take as good signs. -
