Sometimes older isn't better, but in this case it is! There are lots of things that get better with age, like cheese, friends, men, jeans and books! And I love old books! Classics are my go to comfort books. And the best thing about books written over a hundred years ago is that they are free! The first free option is obviously go to the library! But if you are like me, the library is not always free (late fines, boo!) and because I have small kids it is almost always a hassle! So my new favorite thing is to use my smartphone to get books with Kindle and I love it! Here are two books I have read recently for free!
The Three Musketeers is an amazing story that has been made into a lot of movies so you know its got to be good! The book is full of excitement, romance, danger and intrigue! And I am only on the 6th chapter! Don't spend money on pricey books when you can get this for free!
Jane Erye is one of my all time favorite heroines. If you love old fashion values, orphans, older men, and lots of romance and mystery this book is a must! If you haven't read it since high school it a great re-read! It was just as entertaining the second time!
Some other books you should try are The Girl of the Limberlost, Little Women, Wuthering Heights, Pride and Prejudice, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Tale of Two Cities... just to name a few! So if you have a smart phone start reading! (and, really, if you don't have a smart phone you should really think about getting one!)
Ooh! Great recommendation! I'd love to read 3 muskateers.
ReplyDeleteFYI - Kindle software can be downloaded on a laptop. That's what I do. I always have my laptop with me so no need to carry around another book reader. And maybe some day I'll be smart enough for a smart phone.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a smart phone but I DO have a Kindle and LOVE LOVE LOVE all of the old classics that are for free!
ReplyDeleteI've not read the three musketeers yet. Thanks for the suggestion.
