At WWW.WOWIO.COM you can download
e-books for free! Limits are 3 books a day and no more than 30 a month. And while a PDF is required, you can get that free reader from Adobe; but I always save it to MY DOCUMENTS and if I like it a lot ... I'll print it out and put it in a folder and have my OWN book shelf. I did loose the link, but a special thanks to a friend of mine who brought it back up (I forgot how the link went and I went into a deep brain freeze) and I'm ever so thankful! This time around I wrote it in my bookmark log I've printed out so I won't loose it if I crash my computers (which I'm prone to do since I'm a "GEEK") - hahahahahaha! Happy Reading and HAVE FUN!!! Facts about Southie: Southie is not a Book-A-Holic! Southie is not a Book-A-Holic! Southie is not a Book-A-Holic, or am I in denial?

I think it would be VERY expensive (in ink and paper) to print a book out. How do you manage that. My ink is one of my biggest expenses (Printer manufacturers sure got us nailed on that one! Cheap printer, but expensive ink!). I sometimes used the ink you can inject yourself and also some of the generic stuff, but I don't like to use anything that 'might' be substandard for things like photos. I've read too much about longevity issues of photos printed on poor quality paper or with poor quality ink. Nothing is simple is it! Tootsie

That would kill me...nah..only kidding! But...my eyes can't do that much reading on a monitor. I'd have to wear my sunglasses.
Really, you can get good deals at Garage sales, library book sales, all kinds of places. If you can't get out the library has a shut in program and also there are always friends. Give them a list and tell them what you like to read. Then...there is Amazon and you can put what you are hoping to read on your wish list and give it to your family. Tootsie

i have boxes and boxes of books. goodwill has books for 50c. plus our business is in the same shopping center as half price books. got inside connections there. i wish postage wasn't so high...i'd give the books free here. tootsie...have you tried changing the resolution on your monitor or toning it down? that really helps with the brightenss an glare. we might need to come up with a book exchange around here. lots of readers. ~TY for the ink cartridge link sharon. with owning a business, we tend to use a lot. i donate the empties to the school. the cost of these little suckers is so high for the number of copies. ugh.
