How to Read The Hookup Zone Stories on a tolino eReader

You can read a Criminal Minds Fic Archive story on a tolino eReader by downloading it as an EPUB with WP Downloader, then copying the file to the reader. WP Downloader is free, runs in your browser, and does not require an installation.

Download the story as an EPUB

Find the story on the Criminal Minds Fic Archive, also known as The Hookup Zone. Stories may be hosted at thehookupzone.net or criminal-minds-fiction.com. An individual story link may look like this:

http://thehookupzone.net/CriminalMinds/viewstory.php?sid=1234

Copy the full URL from your browser’s address bar. It should lead to an individual story, not the archive home page, a category, or a page of search results.

Open the The Hookup Zone downloader and follow these steps:

1. Paste the story link into the download box.
2. Wait for WP Downloader to detect the archive.
3. Choose EPUB as the output format.
4. Choose whether to include the story’s images.
5. Download the EPUB to your computer.

EPUB downloads are free for everyone, and tolino eReaders can read this format. WP Downloader can also create a PDF after a free Discord sign-in, but you will need the EPUB for these instructions.

WP Downloader downloads the entire story from this archive. Single chapters and story lists are not supported. Support for the archive was ported from FanFicFare, the open-source fanfiction downloader.

Members-only stories

You do not need to sign in for a public story. For a members-only story, sign in with your account for the archive when WP Downloader gives you the option.

WP Downloader uses your credentials only to fetch the story you requested. It can download only material that your account is allowed to read and does not bypass paywalls, locked chapters, or age restrictions.

Move the EPUB to your tolino

Connect the tolino eReader to your computer with its USB-C cable. Wait for the computer to detect the reader before moving the file.

The tolino vision 6, shine 4, and epos 3 use MTP for USB transfers. The reader may appear as a connected device instead of an ordinary removable drive, depending on your computer. Open the device and find its Books folder.

Then:

1. Find the EPUB created by WP Downloader.
2. Copy or drag it into the tolino’s Books folder.
3. Wait for the file to finish copying.
4. Disconnect the reader.

Do not unplug the cable while the file is copying.

The story will be stored on your tolino as an EPUB and available for offline reading.

Get updated chapters

WP Downloader cannot add new chapters to an EPUB you already have. When a story gets a new chapter, download the story again to create a new EPUB, then copy that file to the tolino using the same steps.
