That's my method too. It's easier than trying to carefully drag the mouse to select it.

And when pasting into the links boxes, I click inside then do CTRL-A, CTRL-V (really CTRL-A  V) so that I completely overwrite what was there.  (CTRL-A is select all).

I would love to see Robert K. Massie's Nicholas and Alexandra kindlized.  Nevermind that I have it in paperback.  Nevermind the fact that the photos would be lost.  I'm thinking I need to read it again, and am totally spoiled by Bemis's availability.

This is the first in the St. Benet's Trilogy by Susan Howatch (my very favorite author).  The next two are on Kindle, but not this one.  I've written to the publisher, but never heard back.  

There are actually six books before this Trilogy, The Starbridge Series.  I'd love to have that series as well, but I'll settle for St. Benet's for now.

Susan--I corrected your link--there was a space after the ASIN code B0008EH6NC (I've had to do this for other people, too, it's a common thing!  Just be sure not to put a space or anything after the ASIN code.)

Thanks, guys.  I check on The Wonder Worker every couple of days. 

I clicked on The Good Earth again.  This is such a great book and a classic.  It deserves to be kindlized.

Here's another one to request: Tim by Colleen McCullough

Has anybody read it? I did, years ago and it's a wonderful book. I think I liked it even better than The Thorn Birds.

Description:
Mary Horton is content with her comfortable, solitary existence . . . until she meets Tim. A beautiful young man with the mind of a child -- a gentle outcast in a cruel, unbending world -- he illuminates the darkness of Mary's days with his boyish innocence. And he will shatter the lonely, middle-aged spinster's respectable, ordered life with a forbidden promise of a very special love.

Has everybody clicked on Watership Down today?  Wink

At first Ford had formed a theory to account for this strange behavior. If human beings don't keep exercising their lips, he thought, their mouths probably seize up.
After a few months' consideration and observation he abandoned this theory in favor of a new one. If they don't keep on exercising their lips, he thought, their brains start working.

I did now, and all the others except for the Sidney Sheldon.  The link didn't work.  Has everyone clicked on The Wonder Worker (see above post) for me?

Remember, the Kindlers that click together, stick together.

I gave everyone's links a good clicking.

Would anyone oblige me by doing the same for any of Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's Saint-Germain books? I think the most recent few are on the Kindle, but there's like 30 of them!

Also, Stephen King's It would be much appreciated.
