‘Wings of Fire’ is currently on Kindle Unlimited. I read the first few books last month. They were really good, really quick reads. The world of dragon lore is creative and the battles are very intense. If you like ‘Warriors’ or ‘Harry Potter’ then these books are for you, but with more claws and less wands!

Most people have no idea how to load other types of books, but your Paperwhite can read Kindle formats (AZW, AZW3, KFX) as well as MOBI and PDF files. MOBI files, for example, are often old public domain books, and lack many of the new features of Kindle books. AZW3 and EPUB books are much better choices if you plan to sideload many books, and Amazon will even convert an EPUB for you via Send to Kindle. The real backbone of this type of loading, however, is Calibre.
For those users with huge collections of free books, from various sources, added complexity for such users is provided by Calibre to manage all those books on their Paperwhite. A huge learning curve needs to be traversed though in order to achieve that. For those users that grab loads of free e-books and require a lot of features on their e-reader, Calibre is the answer, making the user’s locked-down Amazon e-reader a universal e-reader. For simple, ‘out-of-the-box’ usage though, stick to Amazon’s way of delivering content to your Kindle and use Libby for your loaned e-books.

In terms of comparing new, used, rental, and even e-textbooks, sites like Chegg, Textbooks.com, and CampusBooks offer the ability to search for the same book across multiple online retailers. Importantly, the sites aggregate new, used, rental, and e-textbook listings from various online bookstores, so you can compare prices from multiple sellers in a single search. The prices may not always be the cheapest available online, but it’s a good place to start. In some cases, renting the e-book directly from the publisher (Norton) may even be cheaper than renting through an online aggregator, so be sure to click on through to the publisher’s website to compare prices. In just a few minutes, you could save yourself $30 or so by avoiding the campus bookstore, which is generally not the cheapest option for textbooks.

The death of trust is also a major element of the story and Dain’s not dying is a big deal. However, his betrayal feels like a death to Violet. When she finds out that he has been using his signet power on her against his will, their relationship dies. This has a huge impact on the story, in isolating her further from her friends and having her jump completely into Xaden’s camp. But also, there is now a powerful enemy in their midst – someone who was supposed to be a childhood friend. In some ways, that death is more painful because it was a choice that Violet can see was made after much rumination. It helps show that the corruption of Basgiath is not simply a matter of killing cadets, but of corrupting good people to be part of the system.

I think the real value in this debate is how it shows just how far YA has come as a genre. There’s more than one way to write YA these days and ‘Fourth Wing’ is at the upper end of the YA readership and teeters on the edge of New Adult too. There are plenty of readers of older YA for stories about first love, making choices about how to earn a living, and trying to break away from family when you’re not quite an adult yet. In fact, a book like ‘Fourth Wing’ is perfect for older YA readers – people in their early teens and early twenties who are on the cusp of adulthood and can relate to the very real and often very challenging circumstances of the main characters in this book, even if they are described in imaginative and often fantastical ways.

Yeah, probably if you can get them as an EPUB. I do it pretty often and it’s super easy

It’s much easier than you think to read light novels free. The Devil Is a Part-Timer! and other novels are included in Amazon’s Prime Reading selection, meaning you can read them for free if you’re a Prime member. Alternatively, many permanent free Kindle books such as The Alchemist Who Survived are listed in the Free Kindle Books section. I’ve even stumbled upon novels I wouldn’t have otherwise thought to check out, like Ascendance of a Bookworm, here. Even novels typically sold for premium prices such as the Sword Art Online Progressive omnibus can be had for free during certain campaigns. Just make sure to check the “Sold by” label to ensure that it is the publisher or an official source offering it for free.

I’m completely with you on this. I followed author Tui T. Sutherland on social media. Occasionally authors will hold a giveaway for signed copies of their books (even e-books) to their followers.
Free to enter, you never know if you might win and most giveaways are for physical copies but occasionally there are digital ones too. I’ve won a couple of books off other authors by simply retweeting the announcement for their giveaway. Goodreads also occasionally hosts giveaways for new releases as well as for older titles when a new book is being released in a series.
Another thing to consider is when a big publisher might put the first book of a huge series up as a permanent freebie or even a 99 cent deal to try to grab new readers. I haven’t seen this publisher do this for Wings of Fire yet but I sign up for the Scholastic newsletter and follow them on Twitter and Facebook, and if at some point they do a “Start the Series” sale, I’ll be sure to let you know.

Format matters when it comes to buying a digital book. MOBI files are generally Amazon Kindle files which you can find on Amazon. For the more universal format EPUB look for Kobo, Google Play Books or Apple Books. I buy a lot of books as EPUB files from Kobo. This is because I can strip the DRM files from them for my own personal use (legal to do in my country). The process of buying e-books is straightforward. Go to the store of your choice, create an account, add a payment method and then click to buy and download the file. The file is then added to your digital library and you can re-download it at a later date. The process is very consumer friendly.

I loved this reaction for side characters instead of Violet and Xaden: Rhiannon is the ultimate hype-woman/goddess, Bodhi is stressing out reading all of the parenting blogs on scrolls, and Garrick is building the most insane nursery fortress in existence. Imogen is just the best and her sarcastic comments are so much better than the actual story most of the time and really highlight her secretly protective nature. The main pairing’s journey is often enhanced by the found family around them.
