Thanks so much for sharing, Kelsey! We had a couple last minute changes - Captain Morgana Mason did not turn free; and The Younger Days is now available through the publisher web site rather than on Kindle, using this coupon code: MH2244YD at this link - http://ow.ly/aozOX. Readers can get that in multiple ebook formats.

Also, if readers look up the novel Charlie Woodchuck is a Minor Niner on Kindle, by Dalya Moon, we have set that free to replace the ones where the free Kindle promotion didn't pan out. Hope readers enjoy the books!
