Lost Bookmark(Help Needed)
It wasn't a huge site with thousands of books but they did have some good ones in the thriller, spy adventure genres. Do any of the members here remember such a site and what it was called or even better and has a link to it?. Thanks in advance for any help. |

What are one of the books you downloaded for free? That might help to find it again.

No it wasn't that one. It isn't a single bookshelf like that one but an open faced cabinet with I think four shelves. I can't remember which book(s) I downloaded from there to be honest.

You can't remember the name of the site, any portion of the url, or any of the books you downloaded from it... yet it's imperative that you find it again.

Do you have some vague idea when you visited this site last time? Maybe it's still in the cache folder of your browser?

Example: “Bob, I did not know you wore yellow suspenders,” Sally remarked. “Gee, Sally, those are not suspenders. I am wearing yellow underwear today,” Bob revealed. The dialogue above will help produce at least 100 more pages of dialogue. |

Not possible I'm afraid my browser is set to delete history every time it closes. I can't stand clutter on PC's which unfortunately for me is most likely why it got deleted/

Where in my OP is the word "imperative" used?. I asked for a little help, if you can't help then please don't make it appear as if I posted something untrue. Thanks awfully!!!!.

There was a site with an appearance similar to what you describe that I visited a few times a couple of years ago. I stopped visiting the site when it appeared to be hosting pirated books. I just took a look through my bookmarks to see if I could find it and the only one it might have been is no longer active. The link goes to a general server's page. Was the site you're looking for active recently?

I don't know if that's what the OP is looking for, but I certainly thank you for the link! There's some very lovely epub versions of Talbot Mundy's works available there (with no disrespect intended to the contributors of the same material available in MobileRead's own library).
EDIT: always check to see if stuff is actually PD in your country before downloading, of course.
