So I figured something out. There were a couple times I would type #bookshare in a post and later, I realized it said bookstore. People would ask me what I meant and I’d explain it was #bookshare. I have been blaming myself and thought maybe my mind was going or something but now I think auto correct is correcting #bookshare to bookstore. Hello, Apple. Yes #bookshare is a word. And I’m using the hashtag to try to keep auto correct from changing it. And yes, I could turn off auto correct, but sometimes, it’s convenient. More often than not, it’s a nuisance, but still, there are those times.

I’m curious if services like #Bookshare have any curated reading lists specifically for all the books the #GOP nut jobs are trying to ban in the U.S? I want to download and read every single one of them.

So I see from the #Applevis newsletter that #Bookshare has its own reader app for iOS now. Has anyone used it? I wonder if it has any benefits over Voicedream reader. I'll stick with Voicedream for now, but I am curious.
The book chronicling the lives of this extraordinary couple is Master Slave Husband Wife by Ilyon Woo. It came out last week and is available on #Bookshare Just downloaded, can't wait to learn more. https://octodon.social/@thatandromeda/109734225543486563
@donwatkins I read this and now would like to check out the NIMAS website to see what they offer. I was, at one point, on #bookshare, but I got kicked off because I was not broken enough.
Also I know I am the one at fault but the difference in prices is huge and I still plan to return the original book. I know the fault is on me because I should have given her back when I noticed I wasn't reading anymore (even though I love it!) but I just... Forgot. But I don't want to make any inappropriate moves. #help #AdviceNeeded #adviceplease #etiquettequestion #etiquette #books #Bookshare

Happy new book release day! Let's see what else I can find to add to my ever growing to read list. 📚 #books #reading #Bookshare #Kindle #Goodreads #NewBookReleaseDay
