Sunday, March 9, 2014: The Kindle "Gold Box Deal of the Day" is a wide-ranging list of Books That Inspired Our Passion for Reading, all priced at $2.99 or less, and quite a few have Whispersync upgrades to the Audible editions -- though many are $10 or more, that still puts the overall audiobook package at less than a credit and (in most cases) less than the retail price.

Posted on 2014-02-27 at 19:01 by Sam

Thursday, February 27, 2014: I didn't see a particular Kindle Daily Deal title to feature today, so I'll take the time to write up a few more "general" cases. First up, because I understand this to be a limited time offer (though my inquiries as to how long have not yet made it through the aether and spam filter and inbox queue yet, or, most likely, didn't look to be worth answering) is from Night Shade Books, which has put a pretty sizable crop of its titles on sale. (BUT WHERE IS MY JM McDERMOTT?
