If you define a Bibliophilia by the words of Christopher Paolini: “Books are my friends, my companions. They make me laugh and cry and find meaning in life.”, then you would definitely find the one in me. Earlier, I had a long-standing affair with NYC library when books I was reading used to control my emotions, happy or disheartened, agitated or elated. I used to relish smell of yellowed tattered pages, sound of the hardcover of those borrowed books from NYC library.
However, this has been true since then until I could my grabbed my Amazon Kindle. With Amazon Kindle, I have discarded carrying piles of books just to carry one thin frame of E-books that can take in thousands of electronic books inside. Sure I still love the paperback and hardcover manuscripts, but cannot give up the lure of plentiful free books instead of just one paperback in my purse.
Free E-books on Amazon
Amazon Kindle has been highly kind to offer me loads of free e-books for my reader. I can buy these free e-books from
- Amazon.com
- Project Gutenberg
- Google E-Bookstore
- LibriVox
- Open Library
- ManyBooks.net
Amazon.com showcases a list of best sellers, but don’t you expect Amazon to sell those best sellers for free. If you are interested in free e-books, then navigate to classics as they are always offered for free. However, finding your favorite authors could be a little bit tricky. That’s why I keep eyeing upon to get some good reads from time to time.
Recently I have downloaded some unputdownable classics that I still cherish reading and cherish my good old school days. These are The Secret Garden, Little Women, Pride and Prejudice, Jane Eyre, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Accountable to None, and some relationship chronicles like Here, Have a Husband, Inconvenient Love etc.
So, when are you going online shopping for books?
