Free Kindle books

[amedia]

I may have been the last person in the world to hear about this, but in case I'm not--there's an e-newsletter that comes out every day with a bunch of books that Amazon has put on sale for the Kindle (or any device with a Kindle app) just for that day. There's usually a batch of four at the beginning that are 99 cents, and then there are about twenty or so that are completely free.

It's quite a mixed bag, including lots of self-published material, and there are days when I glance through it and don't click on anything at all, but I've found a few gems--my favorite so far has been a book about 19th century cocktails called "Steamdrunks."

I 'liked' EreaderNewsToday on Facebook and receive their updates that way. I've picked up two cookbooks through them. I'm leery of the fiction, however. I usually dislike self-published novels, and I see a few of them come across my transom due to B's being a judge for the Libertarian Futurist Societies' Best Novel award yearly. The self-published authors frequently really need editing.
