Project Gutenberg has a wonderful collection of classics. If you’re looking for contemporary fiction, I wouldn’t know where to look. I prefer holding a book in my hands to reading off my monitor.

Online Books has an interesting collection of stuff that is out of copyright and is worth a look.

Many library’s web sites have ebooks for their card holders.

Here are a few places… Most of the books you’ll find for free are Classics, but there are some great ones out there!

trade or swap books with friends or family i do it all the time. i recently got books from my cousin and they were not great but different from what i normally read. its a better way to see what others read. then you can have a discussion after you both have read each others books. just something to consider
