I bought Apex Magazine #15 and #16! BECAUSE I COULD. Also because a) they're edited by Cat Valente, b) #15 has Theodora Goss and Jeff Vandermeer, and c) #16 has a poem by Shweta Narayan! And then I went on to buy the Apex Book of World SF. BECAUSE I COULD. In ePub format, even! I paid by PayPal and then loaded them manually onto the Kobo. Now to see how they show up.
WEIRDLY, yesterday I searched for Jeannie Lin's Taming of Mei Lin, and tonight I tried to buy it, but I had credit card issues (I suspect it has to do with my third-world credit card). Now, it's not even showing up on the store! I also searched for Maurice Broaddus' King Maker and that's not showing up either (even though I found it last night, evidenced by my picspam). What's going on here!
ETA: I thought it was my credit card, but turns out it's not, because I bought The Dragon and the Stars Anthology.
I re-searched for Jeannie Lin's Taming, and got it!
Yay me!
