Your list is tooooo smalllll.

What about a list free books that are currently on sale? NYT best seller
list. 

And all the books currently is the Libraries?

give it up! give it up!

epub
pdf
scan copies.

a lot of mispelings in those books but fuck it, it's FREE!

Truth is, the second a New book is released...you can find it for free
on the internet.
(There is a top famous Physics author who releases his books first
outside of the USA)
da fuckin nerve! wat, he tinks were are all a bunch of crooks?

In fact, there is a person that distrubutes New books to free book
websites...
(he numbers the titles to disquise the books in torrents)
books, magazine...fuking everything new and free!

Best wishes, and happy reading!
