Nemesis by Jilliane Hoffman

The German language book Nemesis by Jilliane Hoffman is the fourth part of the C.J. Townsend book series. Available for less than 23 Euros in paper and less than 15 Euros in the ePub version. I read the whole book in the first night after I received it. Addictive and highly recommended reading (if you like serial murder thrillers)!

Leonard Cohen book Die Flamme, The Flame

The bilangual book Die Flamme, The Flame by Leonard Cohen is available in paper and ePub format for 30 and 25 Euros. Update: what a beautiful book! And not only the content, but the overall design and the haptics. One of the very few books, where I prefer the paper version to the ePub. Highly recommended! Note to self: read ASAP!

How to read epub books with a Kindle

Wonderful hint by Liliputing.com: How to read epub books with a Kindle. As a matter of fact you don´t read epubs on the Kindle. You just send an ePub file via email to your Kindle account, where it gets converted to an AZW file and sent to your Kindle. The only thing you have to do before: change the file extension from .epub to .png before you send it via email to your Kindle account (and device).
