Hm.

The nearest “book” to me is a fashion history booklet/pamphlet/thing. It has 34 pages.

The most recently-read book on my Nook app is Elizabeth Zimmermann’s Knitter’s Almanac: 16 sts for 42”.  (Or, Cast off front half, leaving center 40 sts on piece of wool.)

The most recently-read book on my Overdrive app is Maggie Sefton’s Knit One, Kill Too: “I can’t get over it.”

o/  I’ll take it!

“An innocent maiden named Herridge / Was cruely tricked into marriage; / When she later found out / What her spouse was about / She threw herself under a carriage.”

[SPEND MONTHS LOOKING FOR A SPECIFIC TYPE OF FIC (Fanfic Flamingo) BOOKMARK IT. THEY DELETE IT A WEEK LATER]

WHYYYY? I finally found a fic that fit my kink perfectly, the only one I’ve managed to find in the fandom so far, and then a week after I found it the author deleted it from AO3. I, of course, can remember neither the fic or author’s name. Just that it was a fill for the kink meme 😦

One of the four people who wrote amazing Tony/Rhodey deleted ALL HER FANFIC (in an effort to pursue a profic career, I believe).

I download almost everything I read off AO3 now, and I’m very glad, but I need to come up with better organization. Sigh.

^^^THIS. Back around when I first started reading online fiction (like, 10+ years ago) I had this exact kind of thing happen over and over. Many times it was because an entire site had been taken down, so I’d lose potentially dozens of fics in one go. Now I save everything I enjoy reading – usually before ever I close the browser window – including wip’s.

My various fic folders give me lots of happies just looking at how big they get. ^w^ (I also keep those backed up in the event of a catastrophic computer crash or something of the sort. >_>)
