This is super timely — looking forward to take a look at this in the evening. Wish this was in an ebook format so I could stick it into my Kindle and read it that way though. You might want to check out Calibre, it's an app that automatically converts to more ebook-friendly formats. Might be worth a shot.

BTW - you might want to just host the PDF on your website behind an email wall and put it behind Cloudflare. I just spent 10 minutes trying to get the PDF, it's that busy on Google Docs.

Edit: I just tried to convert it, it works okay, not super great, since the source is PDF. I'm sure you have the raw text document, you can flawlessly convert from that to EPUB/MOBI if you want.

Will check out Calibre. Appreciate the feedback!

You can get the PDF downloadable link here: first100.yobenlee.com.

Will work on EPUB/MOBI formats!

Please do those formats. Many read on iBooks and pdf is hard to work with. I also tried calibre on the PDF, but that doesn't produce a good output. Thanks for this.

Already pinged my designer. If you want to opt-in on my page, I’ll make sure we push these formats before the holidays! Thanks for the feedback.

In the meantime, you can use the export from GDocs to get an epub format.
