Sorry to interrupt your doomscrolling, but it's about a book.

This book:
https://www.amazon.com/Hometown-Home-Michele-Feltman-Strider-ebook/dp/B007TWCNX4/

The Kindle version is on sale for $0.99. (Through May 17.)

That's like a quarter of a cent per page.

All proceeds benefit my cats.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Interesting...

"E-book sales increased for the first time in months"

I'm assuming most of that is seasonal promotions kicking in. And maybe e-book consumers opting for subscription systems (KU and Kobo Plus).
