Smile Simon & Schuster surprised me.

I was considering purchasing a book from Barnes & Noble on my Nook. I was sure that I had read the previous book in the series several years ago on my PDA (LIT format). I wanted to look through it to refresh my memory of the storyline. I used to buy LIT format books from various sources. When my PDA died and I switched to epub books, I liberated all my LIT books and loaded them into Calibre (or so I thought). However, when I looked for that particular book, it was not there.

I checked my Fictionwise account and did not see the book, so I went to Simon & Schuster. I hadn't logged on to my account there for several years. However, there was the book I was looking for with a link to download to Adobe Digital Editions. So I downloaded the epub version, and I was good to go.

I must say that I was pleasantly surprised. With all the bad press that publishers are getting these days, it was nice to have something good happen.
