The free Kindle App, Amazon's free Kindle books, and my iPod are good, good things! You can also put the Kindle App on your computer and read the books without any other device.
It is a good thing - except - when will I find time to read all of these books?
All but one or two of these titles were downloaded from the "Free on Kindle," or "Pixel of Ink" sites. Amazon offers several free titles throughout the day.
I hope someone finds a book on this long list that might spark their interest, and I hope they're still free. If they're not, be patient. They may be listed as free again.
Here's the titles I've gotten so far.
A
Accomplished in Detection, by Dara England
Aesop's Fables, Translated by George Fyler Townsend
