Yeah, I’ve noticed the same thing. Most books I can just click “read with Kindle,” but sometimes there’s an extra screen or I have to go back or something.

Yes exactly! I didn’t know how to describe it- it’s straight forward but it’s not obvious it’ll work?

Here in libraryland, I have not heard of any change in Overdrive’s services and it seems like something that I would have heard of! I’m not experienced with “read with Kindle” because my Kindle is so old, I have to transfer the books using a USB cable. (Bonus: then they are mine to keep. Forever. If you never connect to wi-fi, they never come due. And for what the publishers charge for ebooks, I don’t feel bad at all.)
Do you use the overdrive website or Libby? Looking at the website, I see most of the books still available for Kindle.

I think you just got unlucky with which version is available. My library often has both kindle and ePub (which is the overdrive/Libby format) available but sometimes only has one.

I recently had this happen with Pride and Prejudice! The first version I got from Libby wasn’t available for kindle so I returned it. Thankfully there were like 4 different versions available, but I discovered that only 1 of the 4 was available on kindle.

In The Last of Us the TV show
Summary
Are there kids in peril? Especially little kids?
If so, what are the situations? Go ahead and spoil it for me.
I really want to watch this show but I like to know this stuff in advance so I can be prepared and fast forward if I need to.
Edit: I found the website “does the dog die” and it’s answering some of this but comments with spoiler tags are still welcome.

Summary of peril I can remember
At first I thought there wasn’t much but then I started thinking more and remembered instances. so deleted my last post. Two instances I remember in early episodes:
-Younger kid is infected so they have to kill him and dispose of the body. He shows up to a safe zone but can’t be let in because he is infected.
-Flashback to evacuating a town, healthy people, women with babies, they imply that they kill the entire group from the town, show skeletons and baby blankets in a mass grave
I can’t think of other instances with little kids. As far as HBO goes i found it less gratuitous than HBO shows can be

Share with me your catproof solutions for storing earrings, necklaces, and hair accessories, that do not involve drilling anything into a wall or sticking anything to it (like a command hook)?
The situation is becoming DIRE.

I just saw a new way of storing jewelry that appeals to me: specially-made jewelry binders. Some of them even zip completely closed.

I’ve never heard of this! Off to google!
Ideally it would be a solution that lets me see everything out in the open, but I don’t see how I can do that when I can’t put a hook in the wall or anything. This solution sounds interesting though.

Yeah. My current jewelry storage is kind of shaped like a dress and has a built-in hanger (it looks like a clothes hanger). It hangs from a clothes rod or hook in my closet. But all the necklaces dangle and what kitty could resist that?

Oh yeah, I should add, no closet space either.

I don’t have a catproof surface to keep it on though. Maybe if it latched shut and was heavy enough to not easily get shoved off.
Doesn’t solve the problem of necklace chains tangling though. Unless it had lots of compartments.
Maybe what I am looking for is a Caboodle. Showing my age!
