For your Information.

The Kindle Books that were on sale at the DVD shop in Alsancak have been moved, due to their closure. They are now for sale a the Deli Cafe thanks to Rebecca and Gary, a few doors along.

PM me if I can be of assistance to you.

That’s brilliant. Thanks for posting that info because I rely on your kindle books discs to keep me going.

It isn't that difficult to do this yourself. Obviously if it is a particularly rare book you'll do well to find it but as everyone doing this are going to the same sources they won't get it either.
If you want to get the complete selection of popular authors, say Wilbur Smith, it is a little bit fiddly but very do-able.

Is this the sort were you are cheating the authors out of their royalties??

As opposed to the DVD shops who I'm sure post Wilbur Smith 50p for every book they load onto their discs?
BTW I don't want to spoil it but those DVD shops aren't selling genuine copies of DVDs

ETS, I can understand the DVD films as I do not believe that there are any genuine ones at all here and as we are an unrecognised country, we cannot do anything about that , but kindle books are no problem at all to buy legally.
And before you say anything, I use Netflix and what is available from Amazon prime and none of the illegal providers.
My husband is an artist and has had books published, so I have a personal view about this

There's no reason why you cannot buy kindle books legally from Amazon online - that's where I get mine from...

Totally agree Keith, thank you!!

Me too.

I check the kindle store most days on the amazon site. You can pick up some right bargains. The other day I got a Rick Stein book for 99p. It was originally £26. If you keep an eye on it you really do get a good variation of offers, all legal and above board.

Personally I would prefer a real book but when you live abroad and availability is limited, it is the next best thing. No need to wait for delivery too.

There's also Baen Books free library and Project Gutenberg - again, free....

A few to try for kindle books

www.scibd.com requires a monthly subscription but it includes audio books.

We pay the £7.99 a month for Kindle unlimited as some time ago I worked out between us we were spending far more than that a month buying them. I have come across some rubbish but it is easier to bin them and get something else with the unlimited rather than buy something individually and them decide it is crap.

Completely agree Chris, Kindle Unlimited is brilliant. Have discovered some authors I would never have bought books from and enjoyed their work. Have also discovered some not so good ones, and probably won’t be trying their stuff again! 9.99 EUR on the German Amazon Site.
