Hi, so I finally finished reading m7707's Major Misconduct side-by-side with Coincidental Major. While I enjoyed both (MM is BPOV/CM IS EPOV), I think I enjoyed CM more and wouldn't have read them like that again. There was a lot of repetition that I skimmed over. Overall, I'd rec Coincidental Major.

I was going to start the Moning's Highlander series, but I think I'm going to give Momatu's I remain, Yours a shot first (or maybe at the same time).

Separately, has anyone read Jamie Salsbury's Fighting for Flight? That was supposed to actually be next before I started thinking about time travel.

You need to know about You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login - never trust your story will still be there.  Especially if it's M rated.  They disappear all the time.

Use mobi format for kindle. Epub for most everything else.  I don't normally recommend PDF because you can't easily change it to other formats from PDF.  And if you get an ereader or a tablet, you won't want PDF. 

Have fun! Once you start you will have so many you will need a bigger hard drive.  :D :D :D

Thanks. I discovered Flagfic from the 152 thread but i have been downloading in PDF because everyone on the 152 thread seem to prefer PDF.  I read on a tablet but i did not know that  EPUB is better for that. I will try Epub . Thanks   Just got a 64G  flashdrive , will be busy downloading.

Because I use to always read by laptop, I too saved tons and tons in pdf. At least I didn't have to open calibre to read anything. Now that I am rarely on my laptop at home and prefer my ipad, I have fallen in love with epubs. ipad's will read pdfs, but sometimes the fonts are small and harder to read. Epubs are perfect.

We call the classic New Moon moment when Bella and Edward separate. I hate it. I can watch New Moon in 20 minutes. The first 10 min, FF, the last 10 min. A lot of people like to use this aspect and I hate it when they do just to have it. Sometimes it is necessary, but most of the time it is not.

I have only read Gabriel's Inferno which stopped when they went to Italy. I have the other book, but will probably read that closer to December when the 3rd book comes out. The 3rd book will be all new material. It will go further than UoEM did.

The classic New Moon moment in UoEM is

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.
Oh, now I know what you mean!  And yes, I skip the non-Edward parts of New Moon too.  Haven't watched it in forever.  Is he really only in 20 minutes of it?   I remember that being my least favorite book of the series too.

  Ohmygee!  That makes me laugh now that I know it has two meanings.   Must read this. :D

When i discovered fanfiction last year, i already had my ipad. Did notice most posts in 152 were in pdf so i got used to manually enlarging the screen so i can read it better. Then i started getting those free books in the ibooks store and they were all in epub. My epubs now are all "real books" and all fanfic are pdf, even those i download from FFN i chose to convert in pdf  ;D am glad kindle has an app for ipad so am able to download those freebies from amazon that are in mobi format as well  :)

I agree with mickey, epub is the best for tablets, followed by mobi then pdf. It's just i have over a thousand fanfic in pdf, am just too lazy to convert it to epub.  :P

Yes, Ma'm!

Have I mentioned you are all ENABLERS? yeah, i did...oooh, lookie! new stats!!!  ;D :D
Do you know how freaking hard it was to search the previous conversation (in 2 threads!) about the bra sizes? My eyes got crossed trying to move quickly through the hundreds of posts! i knew we talked about it around feb 13, 2013, page 285 onwards in Part Deux. but there was mention of it in january so it may have also been in dec but i only found few responses. Would you believe i couldn't find astro's bra size?! We all know she is well endowed but for me not to find it?!  :-\ :P I also know someone posted the international size comparison of bra sizes across countries and couldn't locate it as well! am really not good in searching  :(

If you girls want to take pity on me and put me out of my OCD misery, pls shout out your bra size and feet size so i can post the spreadsheet by this weekend. :P

I'm 38A and have size 8 shoes  :)

thanks!  :-*

Sorry Booked a little late.
5' 7"  36 D  and a size 8.5

I thought that I was the only one that did that with the movie and or the book; when I re read all of the Twilight books, for me New Moon was ok let's read until Edward leaves and the skip until they meet again, and still do with some fics I cheat and read the ending (when they are complete) and read if they have a HEA
Nope.... I don't watch the movie much but it is the only book that I really only read the end.  :D :D :D :D

Epubs are also the smallest file size of all the formats. Which is nice when you get a collection.  ;D

Unfortunately, most will not convert or convert well I have found.  :( >:(

I love reading stories that are about Bel a and the Cul ens.... Sigh.....  But I find that if I read on my Kindle at night, I sleep better.  Something about scrolling on a backlit screen causes my brain to go into hyperdrive at night.  Though I do love reading on my tablet.  :-\

Thanks for the info. I have everything saved in mobi because I thought it was best for my kindle/iPad. Maybe I'll change it to ePub instead.

I save most of my stuff on my ipad in pdf because then I can email it.  I haven't found a way to email the epub or mobi yet. 

I just got a laptop so as soon as I have some time how about we all get together so you can show me how to use Calibre!?   ;)
