Every installment of The Darling Budds released so far is right here on this site for free.
You don’t have to download anything to read The Darling Budds, just click here to start reading. However, if you want to read the book on your tablet, smartphone, or ebook reader, you can use one of the following methods:
Mobile Version (Highly Recommended)
If you’re on a smartphone, a tablet, or any other internet-connected device, just click here to start reading. The site automatically adjusts to the size of your screen, and it features every installment posted so far. Plus, it’s really simple to access: if you’re looking at this on a smartphone or tablet, you’re already using the mobile version.
MOBI (for the Kindle)
Right-click, Save As… to download
For nefarious corporate reasons, Amazon has decided that the Kindle can only read the proprietary MOBI format. If you have a Kindle, you need to download this file.
PDF for computer monitors
PDF for iPads and other tablets
Right-click, Save As… to download
These two files are the same, except that the second has been formatted to fit a bit better on tablets.
RTF (for everything else)
Right-click, Save As… to download
If nothing else works, here’s the book in Rich Text Format. Pretty much anything with a screen will read this, I promise. Also, the text is editable, so have fun with the Find And Replace: change a character’s name for your own, and become the star of the story! Replace profanity with “shoot” and “darn”! Or, replace harmless words with even more profanity!
