I just started reading. Not romance - pretty hard core. If you like that sort of thing. Debra

This really isn't my bag, but I do have a good friend who eats this type of stuff up. I'll pass it on to her.

Oh ok, I confess to have read one or the other romance novel over the years. So this free offer attracted me. But folks, you have to give away your home phone number and your street address for just some free books. Not for me. Oh no!

My home phone number is (111) 111-1111 and my adress is
111 you don't need to know nowhere, la. Yes, it works. I don't give my info away unless they need it, and if I'm not buying anything, they don't need it. They shouldn't even be asking in my opinion. |

Oh, but you can get adult freebies from Samhain Publishing without having to sign up.

I downloaded a lot of the freebies and the vast majority were horribly formatted. All of the epub downloads were unreadable. They load just fine but whoever did the conversion did not look at the output. It looks like scanned pages run through an OCR program with all paragraphs removed and extra info from the page (numbers, book title, author) at the start of each break. The mobi files had a scanned page of text first and then the regular text followed. The pdfs had to converted to .txt before they would load. The html files were in the best shape but still weren't all that great.
I ended up deleting most of the books because the formatting was so bad. |
