There are hundreds of websites were you can go to download E-books, for either a small fee or for free. E-Books shouldn’t be the same price as regular books since they are not using products to create the books.

E-books come in different file formats to suit different devices; you will need to download a free reader program before you start downloading E-books. Some E-books you don’t have to download but you can read online.

Here is a site called http://www.ebooks.com this is one of those sites were you have to pay for the download of the E-book. Before you can start downloading you need to register for an account it is free and pretty simple to do. They have a wide selection of E-books from friction, to nonfiction, academic E-books, plus tons more. E-books.com even has a bestsellers list. The prices seem reasonable; in the future I may look to purchasing a few e-books off this site or even one of the free sites available.

Here is a site called http://www.freeebooks.net were you can download e-books for free, you still have to register for an account. You do have the option of registering for a free account, which does have some restrictions like how many, downloads per month etc. or you can purchase a VIP Membership for $4.99 a month and there is no restrictions like the free one. Freebooks.net has a wide variety of E-books to search through; from drama, fan fiction, poetry, humor, mysteries or short stories and tons more.

http://www.getfreebooks.com is another site, which the E-books are totally free, and you also don’t need to register for an account. Plus they even have a place were you can submit your own E-book if you have created one. Getfreebooks.com has a wide list of books available for download, they have young adults books, writing and spirituality to pets and poetry, plus lots more to choose from.

http://www.ebooks3.com is another free site were you can read E-books online. You search for the books either by title or author of the book, then you click on the one you want to read and when you want to flip to the next page just use the navigation bar at the bottom of each page. There aren't a lot of books on this site, but it does have books from published authors on here like, Charles Dickens, William Shakespeare, Robert Frost, etc.
