ThriftBooks is good( books in paper mode). Project Gutenberg is the best Ebook( ePub/ kindle ) . The site is always free and it has out of print books - Mysteries authors-Carolyn Wells, Mildred Wirt( Nancy Drew author) J.S Fletcher , Collins, Anna Katherine Green, , etc. classics- Dickens, Trollope, Elizabeth Gaskell, JaneAusten, Bronte, etc. Novels- The First Violin by Fotherhill- one of my faves, Mrs Henry Wood, etc. History ( diaries of folks in Civ war) Travel diaries like An American woman in London in the 1800’s, Science Fiction-De Camp, Heinlin, Leiber Audiobooks. All different subjects.

Bookbub, Book Adrenaline, etc are good - modern - Mysteries usually has first in the series free- and they are good
Local libraries has a site called Libby that you take book out of the library in Ebook. Do not know if all libraries have that named site.
Any questions - ask me. Book nut in all formats

Becky,Lioness and Bookysue, thanks to each of you for the recommendations. I love the tactile feel and experience of actually holding books and turning the pages so did not go the e-book route but appreciate what a fine service they offer. Our local library has a wonderful Friends of Library collection of continuously donated print and electronic material Our many volunteers, receive, sort and shelve thousands of donated material for sales throughout the year. What a great time to be alive and to have so many varied opportunities to experience great books, music, art and visual tours along with our cyber friend "connections". Thanks to all who share here.
