Hello to all the members of the Kindle Club, as you're probably all aware we suffered a bit of a disaster in the book department over the weekend. It would be greatly appreciated if you could re-upload any books that you may have on your Kindles or computers and get the library back to the state it was in before this weekend.

Thank you.

Can someone explain this to me? I have a Kindle, have books on it, am willing to share... and there my knowledge stops.

aliciaflorrick · 09/07/2012 20:36

Well at the moment Flouncy there's nothing to share, because someone deleted all the books, if we get it back up and running again then I'll give you a shout.

Thankyou!

Ooh, is this a way to share books? I would be interested. The one thing I don't like about my kindle is the inability to pass on a good read.

Hobs · 09/07/2012 21:19

I would also be interested in this if you manage to get the books back.

Also, I hope you get them all back. That must be very frustrating.

CoteDAzur · 09/07/2012 21:34

Where was the library then? How do people upload to it?

I'm interested, too.

Sirzy · 09/07/2012 21:35

Another one watching with interest

Secret7 · 09/07/2012 21:37

Also watching - I didn't think you could share books.

GrassIsntGreener · 09/07/2012 21:40

Intrigued...

I've heard about e-reader 'libraries' in the states but don't think we have them here. I also heard there's a way to loan a kindle book for a couple of weeks, no idea how that works.

KneesoftheBee · 09/07/2012 21:42

I'm happy to share any books that I have if somebody can let me know how to do it.

fiestabelle · 09/07/2012 21:44

Hi, am also interested in this, have books on kindle and happy to share if someone can explain how it works?

AgathaFusty · 09/07/2012 21:50

Oooh, I would like to share too....

Housewifefromheaven · 09/07/2012 21:52

And me :o

MikeLitoris · 09/07/2012 21:54

I would be up for this too.

My kindle is relatively new so there's not much on there yet though.

minsmum · 09/07/2012 22:05

me too. I have books I am happy to share if there is some way to do it.

mummylin2495 · 09/07/2012 22:20

I also have books but have no idea how you get them back on the computer.and where do they get uploaded to ?

fortyeighthourdancemarathon · 09/07/2012 22:22

I didn't know you could do that! Tell us more...

WandaDoff · 09/07/2012 22:23

I have lots of ebooks Epub & mobi formats, if you would like me to share. I'm already in the group so I could just upload them if you want.

WandaDoff · 09/07/2012 22:26

When I say I have lots I mean I have LOTS, & no it wasn't me that deleted the missing ones

mummylin2495 · 09/07/2012 22:27

Do we have to join a group then to do this ?

MsIngaFewmarbles · 09/07/2012 22:28

Me too. I have loads to share and loads I want too :)

Empusa · 09/07/2012 22:28

I would love to join.

My kindle is on it's way, and would be happy to share any books i get.

poachedeggs · 10/07/2012 09:30

I have a very heavily used Kindle app on my phone, does that count?

ninjanurse · 10/07/2012 10:54

I would be happy to share too, have loads of books on a dodgy disc we bought off ebay about 25000, I have no idea how you go about sharing though, so if someone could explain? Smile
