How to Read a Story from The Chosen Two Archive on a Kobo
To read a story from The Chosen Two Archive on a Kobo, download it as an EPUB with WP Downloader and copy the file to your e-reader. USB works with any Kobo, while some models also support Dropbox or Google Drive.
Download the story as an EPUB
WP Downloader is a free web tool that requires no installation. Open the The Chosen Two Archive downloader to begin.
Find the story on chosentwofanfic.com and copy its URL. It should look like this:
https://chosentwofanfic.com/viewstory.php?sid=1234 Paste the URL into WP Downloader. The tool will detect the archive automatically. Select EPUB and choose whether to include the story’s images. EPUB is free for everyone and opens natively on Kobo e-readers.
You do not need to sign in for The Chosen Two Archive. WP Downloader downloads the entire story from this site, not individual chapters or lists. The The Chosen Two Archive download guide covers the process in more detail.
WP Downloader’s support for this archive was ported from FanFicFare, the open-source fanfiction downloader.
Put the EPUB on your Kobo with USB
Use USB when the EPUB is saved on your computer.
- Connect your Kobo e-reader to the computer with a USB cable.
- Wait for the Kobo to appear as a drive.
- Open the Kobo drive.
- Copy the downloaded EPUB onto the device.
- Eject the Kobo safely.
- Disconnect the cable.
The story will appear in your Kobo library. Open it as you would any other book and read it without visiting the archive website.
Transfer the story with Dropbox
Dropbox transfers work on Kobo Forma, Kobo Sage, Kobo Elipsa, Kobo Elipsa 2E, and Kobo Libra Colour. Your e-reader must be running software version 4.18 or later.
Link your Dropbox account from the Kobo, place the EPUB in the Kobo cloud folder, and sync the e-reader. The story will then appear on that device.
Dropbox supports non-protected EPUB and PDF files. EPUB is the better choice here because Kobo opens it natively.
Books added through Dropbox appear only on the Kobo where you added them.
Transfer the story with Google Drive
Google Drive works on Kobo Forma, Kobo Sage, Kobo Elipsa, Kobo Elipsa 2E, and Kobo Libra Colour running software version 4.37 or later.
To connect your account:
- Select More on the Kobo Home screen.
- Open My Google Drive.
- Select Get Started.
- Enter the displayed code on the Kobo website and follow the instructions.
- Put the EPUB in the connected Google Drive folder.
- Sync the Kobo e-reader.
The story will appear on the Kobo after the file syncs. Books transferred through Google Drive appear only on the device where you added them.
Choose a transfer method
Use USB if you have access to a computer or your Kobo does not support cloud transfers. It copies the EPUB directly to the e-reader.
Dropbox and Google Drive are available on the supported models. Check your Kobo model and software version before using either service.
Keep the original EPUB somewhere accessible. WP Downloader cannot add new chapters to an existing book. When the author publishes another chapter, download the whole story again and transfer the new EPUB to your Kobo.
