Kyla, I'm currently reading "Redemption Song and Other Stories: The Caine Prize for African Writing 2018." I get this anthology most years, and sometimes it's in ebook form and sometimes not. Another anthology I get every year, the Pushcart Prize, is never in ebook. I'm not sure why. It seems to me once a publisher has gone through the trouble of laying out the book making it an ebook would be simple. I wo der if it has to do with digital rights for the stories?
Also, on the Kindle Fire tablets, to remove books I click and hold on the icon, then a drop-down appears and I can select "Remove" with the next option being "From Favorites" or "From Device." Sometimes I have to delete separately from both places. Also, make sure you don't have some sort of automatic downlaod selected in your Amazon profile so it doesn't try to re-download after you've deleted it. The books you buy are always in your Amazon profile and can be re-downloaded for free if you ever want them back on your device.
Maryn, I took two pickup loads of books to the library before I moved overseas in 2012. There are fewer than ten books I wished I'd kept. The ones I regret the least are the big, heavy coffee table books like "Best photos of the Associated Press 1946 to 1980," and stuff like that. Begone, poundage that doesn't fit on standard shelves! I kept all books from my heroes, such as Vonnegut and Dave Eggers (although I get his new ones on Kindle so keeping a full collection of paper copies makes less sense now). Bu, in the end, the cull was amazingly freeing.
