I went through these three websites below and made a list of the books worth reading… Also audible.co.uk gives a free audible ebook to whoever signs up…

 

http://www.gutenberg.org/ great site, hassle free!

http://www.free-ebooks.net/ good with comments on the books

http://www.freebookspot.es/ *be careful of the junk they make you download if you aren’t paying attention
