I'm Jumping in on the first topic Where to Find eBooks Online
* *UPDATE - Feb 18 thru April 2 Pelican Book Group is offering over 300 ebooks FREE! They've opened their catalogue to readers HERE Don't Miss your chance to meet new authors, add ebooks to your reader and share the News!
* Outside of the well known designated retail purchase sites like amazon's free kindle reads, I find ebooks at  ChristianBook , links to inspy 'on sale' + 'Free'  daily via subscriptions to Pelican Book Group,  Gospel eBooks, Bookbub, Kobo ebooks,  BN, and ChaptersIndigo. and the many FB pages that post current ebooks offered both free and sale priced. The Vessel Project is one of those. *

FHC is part of the Tyndale Rewards Points program as found on the sidebar button .  By participating in 5 min surveys on likes and dislikes regarding books, or helping in choosing a book cover, you gain points that quickly add up to give you options of free books. Here's THE LINK to check it out and begin collecting your own rewards!
* One ebook source coming to mind is directly from publishers' websites and their Facebook pages. I've noticed many offer ebooks and  excerpts as gifts for readers to sample and hopefully  win over new readers.  Some have Friday or weekend giveaway offers. Monthly newsletters often include author and title giveaway promos, along with new releases, book and bookclub intros of authors works in all genres often including free downloads. Here's a minute number of eg Tyndale's E-Book Extra,   Choc Lit, LoveReading,
Rosetta Books, Destiny Image Publishers, Moody Collective, Baker Publishing Group Each of these sites add MANY ebooks to my ereader each month * Another option?  Purchase Direct from author websites. Signing up for author email subscriptions often includes an intro to their work via the gift of some item of their writing - eg enovella, writing tips or an ebook. Helpful in making informed decisions whether or not this author is as promo'd  on many publicity sites.
Authors also promo their writing on facebook and through FB ebook giveaway events . * Audio books are an entirely different book option I will include here as access is often  included on retail book sites, I was pleased to find Book Depository carries audiobooks -
[ No delivery charge or minimum purchase required Thanks for your orders at FHC ] * Some specific audiobook distributors in addition? downpour, oasis audio, christianaudio [offers 1 free audiobook/month] post hypnotic press * Free audiobooks available at ambling books, LibriVox, are 2 sources coming to mind. Public libraries offer another Free source via Overdrive and Hoopla - all you need is your library card! *  2 Currently FREE Audiobooks I 'read' this weekend  ~
Brilliant Book House FREE offer -
Graham Cooke's THE PRACTICE OF DELIGHT  [ til end of Valentine Weekend ] *

*
And Audible's FREE CLASSIC LOVE POEMS

  * Libraries have wide selection of ebooks and audiobooks - Overdrive and Hoopla their main providers - wherever you are, you can check online library catalogs for titles you're interested in accessing with your library card. * If you're interested in more than just reading enjoyment, there is the reviewing avenue for ebook access. Many publishers make their authors' new releases or upcoming releases available in exchange for your commitment to public reviews within a time frame, on your blog as well as multiple retail and social media sites, creating buzz for the book/author.   [Check FHC's sidebar for several review company opps] * One of this week's reads was just such a publisher's offer. Fantastic 1st in a new series by seasoned historical author, Sandra Byrd, I could not put it down. Gothic mysterious suspense, expertly crafted with enough clues to keep me clueless until the reveal! * One more way to find new ereads and new to you authors that may turn into favs you'll love to discover. blogger * LibraryThing offers a monthly list of books/ebooks, available for signing up with a request  of books/ebooks in your interest area at Early Reviewers  Check publisher sites for review commitments before going into overload ! * Publishers also make ebooks available for publicity tours via blogs. Note their contact details on book blogs hosting a particular title during a designated blog tour promoting a new release and author on a week or month long  schedule of blog appearances and offer to participate. * Giveaways are another way to find ebooks and entering the contest may add to your collection with a WIN.  Goodreads have many book giveaways to search and several book groups
directed at book/ebook giveaways, Some blogs have weekly draws and linkys offering the option to signup for giveaway offers as well as adding your own.  FHC has a weekly giveaway button on the sidebar. Plus, I have a Pinterest board designated specifically for Book/ebook Giveaways HERE  that includes the option to add any books you'd like to sell, swap or trade. Just message me your email to be added to pin to the board. * In fact, my 2nd read this week was a win from the FHC pinterest board. I loved the cover, checked out the storyline and ended with the package in the mail. Though not an eread, as this Giveaway offered the pb for Int'l entries, I was thrilled to discover the Book Depository package in the post so quickly after the winning email message. Though most often the win is an ebook, so definitely worth entering when it's a book of interest! *

* A new to me author, Michelle Griep, whom I'm now keen to find for more of her uniquely humorous, warmly human, suspense filled historical writings.  Whew! Got it out.  Suffice it to say, Michelle writes a great story! * I look forward to hearing your suggestions and recommendations in comments. There may be entirely new options we haven't yet discovered or discussed. I'll update my info as I find more sources and as you offer links. Thanks for sharing! and  Thanks to each of you for sharing your recommendations!  * UP NEXT ? I'm back to reading ebooks for a few days this week as I wait for Library holds to arrive. I look forward to hearing about yours...
