ereaders and free books

[QUOTE=decky;6569416]If you have a kindle you can go on amazon and get free books. I get books from there and from bookblast. Bookblast sends me an email everyday with free books that I can chose from.

Hey, Decky in Minnesota - I do have a Kindle FIre. How about free audiobooks without having to join a club? I love listening to books while I sew. I have a request in at the library for two of Jennifer Chiaverini's new books (audio), "The Spymistress" and "Mrs Lincoln's Rival". Waiting list, wouldn't you know.
I will check Bookblast. Thanks for the info.

My library has two programs, one is called MelCat, I can rent paper books from any library in my State, They also have Overdrive for ebooks.
They just got something called hoopla, for digital movies and books on tape. Free! Check it out.
I suggest seeing if your library is a member of hoopla https://www.hoopladigital.com/home;j...6F1EAABD538823

My library system also uses overdrive and I use it to download free audio books all the time. The only drawback is there is a 21 day time limit and I haven't figured out a way to renew. Usually isn't a problem but every now and then ....
