I wanted to do a post but I thought (and hope) it would be too late, that everything would be back to normal very soon. This couldn't possibly last longer than a day or two. I was wrong so here is my post http://thehappynappybookseller.blogspot.com/2010/02/macmillian-books.html I linked the books directly to the publishers site. They all can be purchased directly there or spend your money where you feel welcome and support your local bookstore. And I am all about the library as well. I currently have Letting go of Bobby James or how I found myself of steam by Valerie Hobbs check out. It's YA novel published under a Macmillan imprint. I hope everyone who blogs will take a moment to remember and talk up Macmillan books they love. I've taken up enough comment space but I can't leave without saying I loved Scott's comments over at Scalzi's. I first heard about Amazon pulling Macmillan titles on Jan 31.

I always appreciate when people acknowledge the book lovers who get all their reading from the library instead of the stores. Thanks for that second footnote.

Andrews Wed, 03 Feb 2010 00:15:29 +0000 http://justinelarbalestier.com/?p=7789#comment-86551 Good idea. And about the library suggestion. Some libraries will have a 'purchase request' or 'recommend a book' form on their website. Or an Email address you can write to. So that's something you can do in about 5 minutes, without leaving your computer (or internet-enabled device of preference). But it would be good form to then pick up the book from the library and read it. :) Good idea.
