Top of my reading list for 2016!


I've been wanting to read this book for so long now that you wouldn't believe it. I have had it in my library before, but I was forced to remove it when a formatting issue made it unreadable on my Kindle with the settings that I commonly use when I'm reading  - this brings me nicely to the reason why I'm posting about this book without actually writing a review on it!

The problem that I had made highlighted sections of the story unreadable (they were blacked out) when my Kindle was set with a black page. Now, because I do much of my reading in bed at night, this setting would make the most sense for me to use since I don't sleep alone.

Since I happen to be friends with Quinn on Facebook, I took the time to send her a quick message to draw her attention to the problem that I was having. While I was waiting to see if anyone had any tips on how I could solve my problem, I was playing around with my Kindle when I inadvertently solved my own problem by changing my page colour to white. Quinn got back to me in the end and explained that the problem wasn't with the book itself, but was a result of a formatting error within Amazon. She explained that the issue is something that she is unable to fix because there is no fix since the fault is at Amazon's end.

While this in itself isn't a book review, I happen to know that Elfin is currently free on Amazon right now... so, if you have a little space for another book in your virtual bookcase, you could download it and read along with me... you can find it here.
