My LGBT bookstore went out of business, too...which is why I try to keep my indie bookstore in business by buying from them when possible. Ordering books to a local store is faster than you might think - sometimes even just a day! And they tend to be good about notifying you when your book is in because smaller store and more dedicated employees. Also at IndieBound.org you can order online and pick up at a local bookstore so you don't even have to call or stop by to order your book!

I have to look into this Overdrive thing. I know my library lets you borrow ebooks but I've never been able to figure out how to make it work. Very interesting, thanks!

If your library has an Overdrive e-book subscription Ash is also available on that. The Nook definitely exists and I’ve even seen a copy of Ash on one!

And I definitely ask when I can't find a book. Makes the sales people know you're interested, which will make them maybe add some to the shelf. Good luck with Ash! I can't wait to read it. It's in my to-read pile currently! : ) I definitely found it at Barnes & Nobles and Borders in my local area and in Los Angeles when visiting friends. And I definitely ask when I can’t find a book.
