I must be totally overlooking something.

I must be seriously brain dead or something. I still haven't found letter 8. Phooey. I'm not even positive I'm looking in the right place. Maybe I'll have more luck with 9.

A quick find today! The contest must be working, because I wasn't even aware of this "feature" of Mobileread. Crimony, as if Mobileread hasn't been enough of a time-suck for me lately!

My guess is holding! (Crosses fingers...please...please...please....)

MOBILEREAD WINTER CONTEST DAY 9: HINT

This is day 9 of MobileRead's winter contest. By now, you should've collected 8 letters. Some of you might already have found the right solution. If you are among them please do not post the book title or references to the book, its content or its author. Do we have a deal ? After all, with all our hints, we're giving you plenty of free resources to find the letters. Have fun!

Deal ^^
And I think that my guess is 99% confirmed after this 9th letter.

Got it. Less than 1 minute. And it fits in the title I have.

Dare I admit I went to the wrong section first time around!!

Once I got the clue I actually blushed in embarassment for not getting it straight away.

Happy to say my guess is still good.

Got it as well.

After Ravenne was nice enough to cater to the fact that fricking firewall at work blocks the site she is using to store the images

And I actually figured the title out as well I think. Just want the last two letters to make sure

I had to read the clue three times before I knew what to do. I'm pretty slow today, well, I worked late and only slept a few hours, so I'm probably excused... At least after these nine letters I can be reasonably sure of the title, which means my brain was in working order at least a few days ago when I guessed it

Same here... But my excuse was that I couldn't put that book away last night... And only was forced to due to draining battery (the JE100 makes a very loud noise when the battery is at 20% and I didn't want to wake my husband )
