Lotsa lotsa free e-books and audiobooks
Gizmo's Freeware's free e-book and audiobook landing page. Twenty-one categories of e-books, four of audiobooks.
Not even duct tape can fix stupid. But it can muffle the noise.

Gizmo's Freeware isn't quite as much fun as TVTropes or Wikipedia to browse ... but there's lotsa good stuff there.

Re: Lotsa lotsa free e-books and audiobooks
Too bad even the kindle links are not compatible with the newest kindles(aka they haven't figured out how to work around the new tech yet). Half of those links do not have anything that works on either of my tablets. Sending them my friends way to see if her Galaxy's can use them.
Yanno how some people have Angels/Devils for a conscience? I have a Dark Elf ShadowKnight and a Half Elf Ranger for mine. The really bad part is when they agree on something.

Re: Lotsa lotsa free e-books and audiobooks
Calibre is not available fir the Fire HD 8.9, and the flash is not supported as of yet for this either, so no flash dependent readers. Guess this was done before they secured Adobe support. If you find a no root version of either for the fire, I'd love to see one, and thanks in advance, as I had no luck.

No,i meant that you can use Calibre on your PC to convert e-books from one format to another.

Re: Lotsa lotsa free e-books and audiobooks
Yeah, and I have hilarious stories of my baby brother doing that when my Mother was going to visit Grandma in Seoul, and my Auntie in Taejon. He made a teensy divot in her clothes, and fell asleep. He in fact, was the same age and height as my son. We were frantically combing the neighbourhood looking for him, and he was blissfully dreaming away. Three hours later,we all crashed in Mothers room crying and we hear him snore. Thank whatever God that believes in me that he does not frequent this board or I would be sushi...Jabberwonky wrote:DinkyInky wrote:My son wants to know if he can hide in your suitcase.Julie wrote:Ooo!!

He says you are awesome(and he says to tell you he knows he really cannot, but it is a grand thought to head off to school with).Julie wrote:If it wouldn't get me in trouble with his mother and the authorities, I'd consider it.DinkyInky wrote:My son wants to know if he can hide in your suitcase.Julie wrote:Ooo!!
