Paula,

I haven't read any of Patricia Cornwell's books, but there are several of them on the PeanutPress site.

Thanks Rob. I did a search quite a while ago and came up with zip.
I hope all of her new books are available in ebook form from now on.

I may have my 2215 taken away from me for suggesting this, but do these books HAVE to be eBOOKS?
I haven't touched a paper book in *six years* my friend. *six years* and I'm not about to start now My eyesight is poor, so I can't read paperbacks. Plus, I read at night, and last I checked, $3 paperbacks don't have backlighting

Oh and don't worry about stuff not being out in E-book - I make them myself from raw texts so that's rarely a problem ;-)

$3 paperbacks
Whoa! Where do you buy your books? Last time I looked, a solid paperback runs about $7.99, give or take...

I like the library and used book stores. Paperbacks for sale at the local library are $.50, hard covers are a buck.

Well, yeah, new books (even paperbacks) are expensive - the newest Harry Potter cost well over 20 euros... Still, I'm sure I could find *a* $3 paperback

Cost is one of the reasons why I don't buy books - I only bought my first Ebook yesterday; it was 2,50 euros instead of the usual 15 for a paperback... I already have the book; got it from IRC today - but I figure at 2,50 it's worth a try - plus it stimulates publishers to bring out more E-books; which benefits everyone in the long run.

I just bought Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code on Friday and haven't been able to put it down.

Sigh. I got the Da Vinci code (hardback) for Christmas I think and I haven't been able to read it yet. Maybe next week....

I just finished reading it, and was impressed. This is the first of Brown's books I've read, and I think I'll pick up the others in ebook format as well, now :mrgreen:

Read it!

Craig.

Craig,
If I may suggest, read Angels and Demons next. It is a page turner.
One of the best books I have read in ages, next to The Da Vinci Code that is.

erm, not trying to drag the "dan brown" discussion to all threads in this forum, but i just thought i'd point out that "angels and demons" plays before "the davinci code".
