    Default Kindle advice please?

    My shiny new Kindle arrived on Friday. I have one book on it because the river gave me a freebie a while ago when I bought a paper book. Any advice, please?

    How did you find the free ones, Penni? When I looked even Jane Austen (out of copyright if anything is!) cost money, if not much (am terminally tight!)

    Few years back when I got my kindle I bought a disc of books from an Online auction site (cough cough) cost me few pounds for 2 thousand books...download the disc to your pc then add books to kindle it was very simple and only cost me a few pounds for the disc...I just deleted any I didn't fancy reading...still have loads left to read ! I then passed the disc on to others...

    Thank you for the hints - I'll soon be ready to give up paper novels (except for reading in the bath!)
