OK, this is getting too quiet. Given that I've already nominated a "trader" book, I'll nominate a second 'Trader' book, Quarter Share by Nathan Lowell. The first in his Trader's Tales from the Golden Age of the Solar Clipper series. This is very much a YA coming of age book, with absolutely no violence or sex. Rated G. Originally published as a podcast read by the author, it has that feel about it even when read as an eBook. Available free if you have KU, and can be listened to for free as a podcast if you prefer, or as a paid Audible book if you find podcasts annoying. (The Audible book is not read by the author, though I found the Audible narrator non-jarring even though I had already heard the author's podcast.)

I didn't know much about it. I bought the ebook, but didn't get around to reading it. I guess it's improper to withdraw a choice.

Can someone nominate something good that's available via Overdrive (as an eBook)? Thanks.

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. From Amazon: Quote:
I'm not going to link to Amazon et al. because it's expensive, at least in the US. It's at OverDrive, Hoopla has the audiobook, and I figure most people have a copy kicking around anyway or can lay their hands on one. If you read Spanish, you're in luck because the Kindle version is only $3.99. |

In the interest of getting more nominations completed I will third Kirinyaga. I will also second The Night Land although I wish the abridged version "A Dream of X" had been nominated instead, I would rather chance reading 175 pages instead of 450+.
