Bestselling #Authors & #eBooks from BooksOnBoard #FED_ebooks

WEBWIRE – Monday, March 19, 2012

 

BooksOnBoard’s bestsellers lists have seen little change this week, but with a particularly interesting development: Sherrilyn Kenyon’s latest young adult fantasy, Infamous, has dominated the lists in both the US and the UK.

“Infamous is one of a rather small set within the young adult fantasy genre” remarked Mindy Erickson, BooksOnBoard’s Merchandising and PR Specialist. “In a genre overflowing with female protagonists, Infamous follows Nick Gautier, a teenager tasked with helping save the world from evil while simultaneously juggling the pressures of school and his social life. Although names like Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, and Artemis Fowl cast long shadows, male protagonists such as Nick are not this genre’s norm”

Infamous is the third in the Chronicles of Nick series, a spin-off of Kenyon’s wildly popular Dark-Hunter series. “Kenyon’s flexibility as a writer is obvious; she crafted a vibrant fantasy world for a steamy adult romance series, then reexamined it through the lens of a young adult author” Erickson said. “I would very much like to see more authors–across all genres–doing the same.”

Knox Weekly    Bayswater Vic Australia

by Tara McGrath

ONCE UPON A time, libraries were places to hunt out an old and dusty book – but that image is quickly being replaced by e-books, free wi-fi and interactive websites.

First Edition Design eBook Publishing

However, as technology advances, the number of people visiting Eastern Regional Libraries branches in person is down by almost 500,000 in the past five years.

In the 2006-07 financial year there were 2.5 million physical visits to ERL branches, but in 2010-11 that dropped to just over 2 million. Website hits rose to 1.4million in 2010-11 from 478,406 hits in 2006-07.

ERL information services manager Paul Burden said this was because website redevelopments now featured e-resources and online learning for children.

E-books have been available on the ERL website since June last year and there have been 14,000 checkouts in that time.

Mr Burden said those numbers were rapidly increasing, with 2800 books checked out during February, and a spike in rentals just after Christmas last year.

Mr Burden said ERL had about 7000 electronic titles available, including e-books and audio books.

But Amazon Kindles cannot use the ERL software yet because of copyright problems with the e-book platform Overdrive. “There’s an 82-year-old lady in a retirement village who keeps asking when they’re going to be compatible because she has a Kindle she wants to use,” Mr Burden said.

Knoxfield bookworm Annette Schlafrig, 57, reads ERL e-books on her Netbook. Ms Schlafrig said the books were especially suited to older readers because they could change the font size.

“E-books have also been great for me while I’ve had a broken arm. I’ve read book after book but haven’t actually borrowed any physical books.”

Knox residents can learn how to use these new devices at a ‘technology petting zoo’ lined up at ERL branches.

Ruminations of a Catholic School Girl by Vicki Lindgren Rimasse out in #ebook #writer #author #FED_ebooks

Ruminations of a Catholic School Girl (Who Thinks in Latin but Lives Near Hackensack) by Vicki Lindgren Rimasse has been released by First Edition Design Publishing in eBook format and distributed world-wide.

First Edition Design eBook PublishingRuminations of a Catholic School Girl is a compendium of random thoughts on food, love, sex, shopping, marriage, divorce, death, rebirth, the existential vacuum and music through essays, notes passed in class, and diary entries.  With vivid imagery and sardonic commentary, brings to life the story of a Boomer from Long Island, Gwen Patrick (the author’s alter-ego), who loves shoes, Beaujolais, shopping, food and most of all – food, family and friends. Chronicling her life from her first experience with parochial school in the 60s through her son Zimmerman’s high school years, it tells the story of a Long Island boomers experience and continuing journey. With references to Plutarch and Popeye, the Bible and Sex and the City, Jim Morrison, Joni Mitchell and Opera, Gwen’s journey will resonate with women of any age – and men who understand the importance of having the right mustard for their pastrami.

“Very well written. A great, fun read,” said Deborah E. Gordon, CEO and Executive Editor at First Edition Design Publishing.
