I have used eReaderIQ and Baen for several years, I have so many eBooks stacked up and add more every week, not sure I will ever catch up. I like eReaderIQ because they send me a list of the top 25 rated free books each day. I don't have to remember to go check.

Yeah I looked at that but I'd rather do a quick sort thru the entire list myself. Books of interest to the RV community probably will never show up in the top 25, nor photography which I am also interested in.

There are many Free Kindle book sites.

There is one that posts 2 to 5 times a day on Facebook, You follow the link and they show you links to several Kindle books (on Amazon) for free, usually (They do warn you that the free period may hae expired)

I have found that if it's still free, Kindle will say "buy with one click" on the button . but if it's not then "Buy for #2.99" or whatever price it is.

I have over 100 Kindle books backed up just now ,, Plus some others as well.

Smashwords, Project Guitenburg and others have them, If you like Science Fiction try www.baen.com/library (I know the librarian there) and I can even recommend a book from that library, Fidler Fare by M. Lackey.

Here is the E-reader link

Kinlib and ereaderiq are about 95 percent the same maybe even 100. Actually kinlib has the link to ereaderiq.
The reason I don't use kinlib is that there is not genres for the books, you have to go through the entire list usually about 400 books to find things you like.
eqreaderiq does put them in in about 30 or 40 genres so I don't have to go through Romance, Childrens, Scifi etc books to find things.
I just looked at squiddo and again it doesn't put them in genre order. That makes them not much better than going direct to amazon. (in my opinion).

Library loans. If your library doesn't loan kindle books, then there are several large libraries around the country that will let you buy a card for an annual fee. Philadelphia Free Public is one....$35 annual fee.

Search free ebooks on Amazon and many come up. Some classics, some older books by current authors, and some like those in the OPs link.

There are also ebook converters like Calibre which will let you convert to and from mobi to epub to other ebook formats including pdf so if you find a free book in a format not for your reader, you can change the format to work with your reader.

Well if you have "buy with one click" set up with Amazon then that will always show up.
