Hmm. Well, first book I tried tonight was a fail. Fables in Slang, by George Ade, which is supposed to be modern and funny but I find myself put off by the random capitalization and at least the first 2 stories (all I've read/will read tonight, at least) were not amusing to me.

Moved on instead to Four Infiltrations and a Wedding, another Smashwords download, by Lichfield Dean.
It has potential, but needs a good editor. Some amusing bits, fairly predictable bumbling romance. I am a bit disappointed in that the woman isn't really portrayed as clever enough to hold up her end of the screwball comedy routine, she's got the sweet bit down, but seems frightfully naive for her supposed role in life.
Okay, I admit it, I'm just in it for the hats: "hats that... did things. Crazy things. Outlandish things. Things that hats had no business doing, especially the one that kept performing double somersaults with twist."
Hmm. Ending was a bit sudden... Definitely could use a good editor.

Okay. enough free download stuff. Fables it is. Book 6: Homelands.
