Both. Kindle and Amazon.

I never understood exactly what happened with Vashti-- I often thought that whatever happened appeared to be unfair-- like she was the victim of someone's whim.

That is easy to conclude. But she held her own feast while the king held his, and she held it in the king's house. And while the king held a HUGE feast and asked her to come, she refused. What a contrast from Esther who invited the king to her banquet of wine and asked Hegai what she should wear for the king instead being like the other virgins who chose what to wear themselves. It a story of contrasts.

However way you slice it, she dishounoured her husband, which was a much larger issue back then, let alone fifty years ago, compared to today. lol

Thanks for making this clear for me.
