Barnes & Noble is upgrading their web site tonight, so I'd advise turning off your WiFi/Wireless on any nooks, at least for a few days, until we see if they've released a new update and, if so, whether or not it breaks anything. This also means you can't buy any content or view your library during the update (which starts at 11PM ET) and may go all night, so be sure to grab an extra book early, if you need to. More details (well, not really, but the announcement) on their Facebook page.

Today We Are Rich ($1.99), by Tim Sanders, is today Kindle Deal of the Day. A Tyndale House publication, this one was free last May.

Book Description
The long awaited prequel to global best seller Love Is the Killer App: How to Win Business and Influence Friends.

Are you just hanging in there? Have life’s curveballs thrown you off balance? Do you feel as if your life is going sideways?

Best-selling author, leadership coach, and former Yahoo! executive Tim Sanders knows how you feel. His father’s unexpected death put him in a downward spiral for fifteen years—what he calls his “sideways years.” A photo of a dusty water tower in Texas finally woke him up in 1996. That’s when he realized he needed to go home to his rock—his grandmother Billye, who had taken him in as a child to raise as her own.

Rediscovering the lessons she taught him as a child turned his life around and, in less than four years, catapulted him to financial security and an officer-level role at an S&P 500 company at the center of the Internet revolution. Today, his promise to himself is, “I will never forget those lessons. The price is too high.” Join Tim as he rediscovers the classic principles of confident living that some of the most successful and joyful people you know live by.

Dragon Spear ($6.15 Kindle; $1.99 B&N), by Jessica Day George, is today's Nook Daily Find.

Book Description
As far as Creel is concerned, all is finally right with the world. The dragon king, Shardas, and his queen, Velika, have made a home for themselves on the Far Islands, and for the first time in centuries it seems dragons and humans might be able to live together in peace. So what better time for Creel and Luka to plan their wedding. But then Velika gets kidnapped by a band of rogue dragons in need of their own queen. And Creel and Luka leap to aid Shardas and rescue her—only to discover that Luka’s father has set his sights on taking back the Far Islands from the dragons. Torn between her love for Prince Luka and her friendship with Shardas and Velika, Creel must make the most difficult decision of her life if she stands any chance of getting to the church on time.

A short post today, but a lot of free books since yesterday! I'm off to play with my puppy and will check back in later.
