I wish I were on this list from the Library of Congress, but no. How many have you read?

I found that I have quite a bit of catching up to do.
Did you know that you can get books for free for Amazon Kindle? Many of the classics are free, and some are under $1. I’m guessing you can get many of the books on the LOC’s list very inexpensively.
Last week, my husband wanted to read Harold, Last of the Saxon Kings, and it was 95 cents. He was thrilled because he’d not been able to get hold of a copy for many years, and was delighted at reading it.
So, there you go… Get some classics free or next to free and have a wonderful summer of reading fun!
