chesilbeach Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 The Guest Cat by Takashi Hiraide is a kindle daily deals for 99p today!! I'm mulling it over at the moment … not sure whether I want to read it or not. Quote
Janet Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 I'm the same, Claire. I keep picking it up and looking at it in book shops, but something is holding me back. We have just under two hours to decide! Quote
chesilbeach Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 I didn't bother in the end … it's funny that I bought it for Kay, but it's just not jumping out at me for myself to read at the moment. It's the first Tuesday in the month so all the new Monthly deals are up on the site now. Had a look through, but nothing tempting again, although a few books I've already read in there, so there might be temptations for other people! Quote
Janet Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 I nearly bought it for Kay for Christmas too. And I thought Paula might like it as well (I don't know whether she's read it or not). I didn't bother either - I'm not exactly short of books! Quote
Nollaig Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 I've had it for a while and not gotten around to reading it, not been in the mood Quote
Raven Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 It's the first Tuesday in the month so... I was wondering how that worked. all the new Monthly deals are up on the site now. Had a look through, but nothing tempting again, although a few books I've already read in there, so there might be temptations for other people! There are a few sci-fi novels on there: Red Mars, by Kim Stanley Robinson The Reality Dysfunction, by Peter F. Hamilton Old Man's War, by RedShirts author John Scalzi The City & The City, by China Mieville and All three books in The Dire Earth Cycle, by Jason M. Hough (I've read the first one and would say they are worth a punt at 99p each). Quote
chesilbeach Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 The Humans by Matt Haig is only 90p on Kindle at the moment. I'd highly recommend it - my favourite book of the year last year. Quote
Athena Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 The Humans by Matt Haig is only 90p on Kindle at the moment. I'd highly recommend it - my favourite book of the year last year. I can echo this, such a brilliant read. Quote

chesilbeach Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 Shakespeare on Toast is on offer on the Kindle Daily Deal today for 99p. I've had it on my wish list since Ruth wrote a great review of it a while back, and I think some other members have read it as well. Also, I know there are Diane Chamberlain fans on the forum, and her book, The Lies We Told is also only 99p today in the Kindle Daily Deals. Quote
bobblybear Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 Snapped up the Diane Chamberlain book....can't really go wrong with her. Quote
Athena Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 I haven't read that one yet (I do own it in paperback), I hope you enjoy it, BB ! Quote
Timstar Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Conn Iggulden's 5 part 'Conqueror' series about Genghis and Kublai Khan is 0.99p each on Kindle today. Well worth the price. Quote
bobblybear Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 The Curse of the House of Foskett, which is the sequel to The Mangle Street Murders is only £0.99 for Kindle today. Of course I bought it. Quote
pontalba Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 Close to Home, Strange Affair and Bad Boy (DCI Alan Banks) by Peter Robinson are on sale on Amazon/kindle for 1.99 each USD. Quote
chesilbeach Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 The Amazon UK site has a new promotion to Start a New Series from 99p: http://www.amazon.co.uk/b/ref=s9_acsd_al_bw_hsb_KCHP3515_s1_n?_encoding=UTF8&node=6691079031&pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-4&pf_rd_r=0J2EW5C1GZ9YX0ZEZVB3&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=625547787&pf_rd_i=341689031 Quote
Janet Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 When Mr Dog Bites by Brian Conaghan is one of today's 99p deals - it's about a boy with Tourette's syndrome. I read it last year and thought it was great. Quote
Karsa Orlong Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Blast Amazon and its Monthly Deals! For once, there are several books on there that I was interested in, so I had to get them at those prices, naturally A Rare Benedictine: The Advent of Brother Cadfael by Ellis Peters Bitter Greens by Kate Forsyth Winterkill by C J Box Force of Nature by C J Box The Princess Bride by William Goldman Dauntless (Lost Fleet Book 1) by Jack Campbell all for the total of £7.24. Shouldn't complain, I suppose, but that's six more books to add to the TBRPFH Quote
Raven Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 I didn't think there was much of interest this month, past The Princess Bride (I bought Dauntless back around Christmas when it was a pound). Probably a good thing, as I have over a dozen books on my Kindle that I've not read yet! Quote
bobblybear Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 I didn't think there was much of interest this month, past The Princess Bride (I bought Dauntless back around Christmas when it was a pound). Probably a good thing, as I have over a dozen books on my Kindle that I've not read yet! I have about 200 on my Kindle that are unread. I nearly went for The Princess Bride, but I have it on paperback, so I refrained. Quote
bobblybear Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 The Mangle Street Murders by MRC Kasasian is a Kindle Daily Deal for only £0.99. Quote
Karsa Orlong Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 ^^ The Curse of the House of Foskett is currently £1.19, although that's not a Daily Deal, so no idea how long it'll remain at that price Quote
bobblybear Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Lost At Sea: The Jon Ronson Mysteries is today's Kindle Daily Deal for £0.99. Quote
bobblybear Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Under The Skin by Michel Faber is the Kindle Daily Deal for today at £1.09. It was mentioned a few times on the thread about most disturbing reads. I've bought it. Quote

It was mentioned a few times on the thread about most disturbing reads. I've bought it. *shudders* You're a brave reader - I could only make it through the first 100 or so pages. Quote
