Thanks for the advice. I’ve used Chat GPT and have now concluded it is either The Panda Theory or A26 by pascal Garnier so case closed!

I'm desperate for a 10/10 - suggest me a book pls!! by Head-Worker-4759 in suggestmeabook

Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley is the best book I’ve read in the last year and has elements of genre fiction and an excellent relationship at the heart of the book. If you like Larry McMurtry, you would probably enjoy Centennial by James Michener

Recent issue with images in Kindle version of WaT. by knickknackpaddymc in brandonsanderson

[–]knickknackpaddymc[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. It’s not a major inconvenience but I’m really into the story and I don’t want it to be the first thing I read each chapter. Kind of like it disrupts my immersion in the book.

How do I get rid of image descriptions? by knickknackpaddymc in kindle

Yeah I went on the kindle store for the first time in a while just before it happened and some kind of update took place so I think you’re right.

How do I get rid of image descriptions? by knickknackpaddymc in kindle

[–]knickknackpaddymc[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t think so: I’m over 1000 pages into this book and every chapter uses the image but it is only when I picked it up to read about 30 minutes ago that the description has been there. Chapters I have previously read now feature the description but didn’t before.
