Kindle unlimited has books that have free audio books. There is also amazon prime i believe. Audible is free for like 10 days and then you pay.

If you have a library card, you can utilize the Overdrive, Libby, or Hoopla app and rent them for free!

@Jessica It’s just your library card number and your last name on my app, once you set up your account. At least for me it was.

I always think it’s cool to pay artists for their work, but that’s just me.

@Jessica he means when you get them off Youtube or another illegal download site you aren’t paying the author for their work.

Exactly. Looking for free copies just hurts us, especially indies.

Kevin

I appreciate that. If you go through libraries, they do buy the copies for their readers. Nobody’s mad at you for going that route. You support us and the libraries that way. Win/win!

No it’s a service in any state. National library services it’s a free service they send you books through the mail and a talking book player and then you can play on that player.

@Jessica I would not give you any information that was illegal. I am a certified vision rehab therapist.

JessicaQuestion author

@Amanda sorry

Amanda

@Jessica Yes you can pick the books yourself. Or they can send you random books. I have them send me random books because sometimes you do send you some pretty good ones. It’s OK no worries I understand the skepticism.
