Post your free* book finds here. Click here for the December 2009 free book thread: http://www.kindleboards.com/index.php/topic,16184.0.htmlThis thread is for members to post your Free book finds, no self-promotion please. If you have a book of your own to promote, you may start a thread all your own in the Book Bazaar and bump it occasionally (no more than once a week, please) to promote your book, to post news and to talk to your fans! Of course, you may also list the book in your Avatar and signature. Thanks! Tip: typing in the title in addition to including the cover helps when doing searches! We generally try to keep this thread on topic with book posts only, off-topic posts will be "pruned"! This helps members who use the "new post" indicator. Thanks for your cooperation! Ann & Betsy Book Bazaar Moderators *buyer beware: though books are free when posted here, prices on Amazon can change without warning so be sure to look before you click! |

I know this will be deleted eventually because it's chit-chat and that's fine, but want to second Geoffrey's recommendation of Hero Wanted, I too had had it for quite awhile and finally read it last weekend -- that book is a HOOT!

From the December thread... I'm re-posting it because it got buried at the very end and thus a lot of people might've missed it. The Elvis Interviews - By Glen BonhamOne of my top ten books of 2009 is now free. I paid $5 and it was worth every cent. Now that it's free, you should not hesitate!  https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1612 |

Before i post freebies, Thanks to Tabby and Geko29 for bringing this author to my attention. I just finished Already Dead: A Novel by Charlie Huston, and I saw that he had previously made other books available for free download. Since I haven't filled my Kindle with enough free ebooks yet, I decided to search around, see what I could find. Lo and behold, his Hank Thompson series is listed for free PDF download through Scribd. I haven't read much of his work, but I did like Already Dead, so I'm going to give this a shot, and wanted to bring it to everyone's attention. The only downside is that you have to sign up for a free account through Scribd, but there's no confirmation emails, so you can use a throwaway one if you want to make doubly sure that you don't get any spam. The link is to Charlie Huston's website. He has the Scribd links to the free books already listed. Happy reading! http://pulpnoir.com/?page_id=514 |

Created with award-winning author and illustrator Peter H. Reynolds, this book encourages children to read, write, listen, and talk. http://www.rif.org/educators/(scroll down to get it) I haven't downloaded it yet, but plan to. I believe its pdf, not audio, but not 100% sure. |

http://www.amazon.com/Good-Mood-Diet-Weight-ebook/dp/B000SEGKP2/ref=sr_1_48?ie=UTF8&s=digital-text&qid=1262793565&sr=1-48Product Description Dr. Kleiner, a leading nutrition authority on eating for strength, has put together a diet that has already been tested in Seattle with a Seattle Good Mood Diet weight loss group program. Bob Condor highlighted the progress of the group in the Seattle Post Intelligencer from Nov. 1, 2004 through April 2005. The author has since received thousands of requests for more information. The idea behind this book is that you can choose healthy foods that both make you feel great and, when eaten according to the plan, help you lose weight. Most diets cause chemical changes in the brain that make the dieter feel depressed. The typical plan is often too low in calories. In this diet, the participants eat feel-good foods with both ideal timing and ideal combinations. People's energy levels soar and participants feel better in days. The key is to combine the right foods-i.e. balance of protein and fats to go with carbs. The plan outlines a diet of about 40 percent carbs, 30 percent proteins, and 30 percent fats and fiber. Participants eat from a list of "feel good foods," and eliminate excessive added sugar in processed foods. Sweets are not taboo, but the authors believes in "eat it only if you love it" when it comes to sweets. For instance, if you love pumpkin pie, have a slice, but maybe skip the crust unless it's fabulous. A bit of chocolate and a glass of red wine a day is okay once you're two weeks into the diet.

For all who got their Kindles for Christmas - JA Konrath offers many of his early books free on his website. I love his Jack Daniels series on Kindle (not free but recommended), and have read The List (free from his website) and it was good as well. Will get to them all one day.... I believe the free ones are all PDF files, which I sent to Amazon for formatting for Kindle. http://www.jakonrath.com/freebies.htm#jack |

  I just finished this last night and thought it was pretty good. Well, as of 9:37 PM eastern time, it's $9.59, not free! |

I got it free, but we know that prices can change in the blink of an eye. I started to read it, but I just can't seem to put my mind to anything new these days. It has to be something extremely light or something I've already read. |

It wasn't really captivating. I'm reading The Crossroads Cafe right now and it shows some promise. |

Ok this is really annoying, but when I go to click on the link, it moves! So I can't even click on it. What's going on? Not the link in this post, but this same link in the second post of the thread. As soon as my cursor goes over the link it jumps to the next line, to the left. And if I move my cursor to that side, it moves back to the upper right. |
