So why was my vote for Candy removed? I can't nominate, withdraw nomination, and then vote for it when someone else nominates it?
I swear to whatever Powers That Be I'm going to start a second thread just to keep up with your vote.

Are you giving the nod to Candy or not?

Yes he is.

He originally removed his nomination at the request of Jon, who said it was not available as an ebook. Then he decided to renominate it, once it was determined that the book is in fact available as an ebook. So, Candy should officially have 3 nods and therefore be fully nominated!

I didn't look at Fictionwise as I don't look there any longer because they don't have all that much that I am interested in in a format I'm willing to pay for. But every other site I looked at it was PDF only including Kobo.

If you want a quick read where half of it is a mystery then give Remember When a third. It (IMHO) the best book (currently nominated) for those who do not like romance even thought it is romance.

I did an Inkmesh search for Candy and all I could find was PDF format. I didn't even find it at Amazon as an eBook. I did not check Fictionwise where it is multi-format DRM free. But all the biggies and the ones from Inkmesh were either not available or PDF.

I am glad to be proven incorrect. But to be honest, I think if I had not mentioned that all I could find was PDF, I think others would had the same findings if it was to win.

I wouldn't describe 518 pages as a quick read.

It's only about 397 pages as an eBook. It's one of those books that is a quick read. The J.D. Robb section is a very quick read. You get into it and when you look up, you go "I've read that many pages? Wow!"

One small problem with Remember when though: It's part of a series (At least the second -more interesting IMHO- part, and it's not the first in the series. Therefor should not be open for nomination, according to some...

(I agree it sounds interesting though - if I could only bear the Nora Roberts half.)

You're right. I read it too quickly, sorry. I would be reading it in Kobo myself, if it won.

Remember When just needs a third to be able to be voted on. So let's give it a go.
