Haha, just an internet term to add a comment for additional traffic and at the same time see what others say because I’m also interested on the recommended sites…
Real books: ThriftBooks- the books are often used but are in great condition. Also my library. They have an ongoing used book sale with good selections and Goodwill
I have a moldy dank sprawling used bookstore on the outskirts of my city that sells a BAG of used roughly used paperbacks for $5! Also nice books limited editions in the climate controlled area. I walk into a time warp and hours have dissolved when I finally walk out! ????
Bookpub and freebooksy send you emails daily with free books or super cheap $.99-$1.99 for ebooks. The fussy librarian and robin reads, does this as well.
Amazon, kindle, nook, iBooks, androids have google play that have ton of free ebooks.
Libraries have Overdrive and hoopla and other platforms for free ebooks.
Library for free or from the daily deal emailsfrom Goodreads and Bookbub. Sign up and they send you .99 and $1.99 ebook deals every day for genres you like
Library, goodwill, garage sales, and local thrift stores. Overdrive app with the library for ebooks and audio. Kindle first for a free book a month. I also use http://paperbackswap.com/ a lot. Trade with others and all books are free. You just have to pay postage when you send any of your books to others.
I don’t think that Overdrive is immediately user friendly, I’m sure that it could be far more straightforward in its layout and manageability, but I simply put in ‘audio books’ in the search bar and it throws up all the audio books that they own in their library. I’ve listened to 15 books since I joined via the App, which I would have paid dearly for via Audible.
I also have a subscription with Kindle Unlimited, where I can also obtain ‘free’ audiobooks – also not easy to access, harder than Overdrive – but free audiobooks are part of my mission in life! ?
If you download the app OverDrive, you can set up an account through your public library. You just need to provide your library card number and password (for an account) and then everything is fair game and free! They have audio books as well as books to read online at no charge – only downfall is the amount of time they’re rented out to you, but hopefully you can find use from it or renew them!
I get lots of free Kindle books from Amazon. Often the first book in a series is promoted to attract new readers, or a book is promoted for a limited time. Some are great, some less so but it means I never run out of books because I always have a few spare freebies 🙂
Bump

Library. I’ve recently discovered Overdrive and have simply gorged on the array of audiobooks!
I haven’t figured out Overdrive’s Audiobooks, yet. I do get Kindle boos through Overdrive through my library system.
I don’t think that Overdrive is immediately user friendly, I’m sure that it could be far more straightforward in its layout and manageability, but I simply put in ‘audio books’ in the search bar and it throws up all the audio books that they own in their library. I’ve listened to 15 books since I joined via the App, which I would have paid dearly for via Audible.
