Best Sites Review:
Project Gutenberg is a great find. If you are a fan of Charles Dickens, you will find his books here and can be downloaded for free. Find books by authors Daniel Defoe of Robinson Crusoe, Louisa May Alcott, author of Little Women, Jane Austen of Pride and Prejudice. Get a hold of stories and novels by R.M. Ballantyne, L. Frank Baum, George Fenn, Lewis Carroll, and a lot more. Also available are audio books, sheet music by famous artists, recorded music, still pictures, and more.
You can use the search feature of the site to find a specific author or a specific book. If you do not have a specific author or specific book in mind, it will be quite a challenge to use this site though they listed the authors and book titles alphabetically. It would have been nice if the books were categorized into specifics like novels, poems, short stories, classics, etc. Anyhow, for anyone who would like to read books for pleasure, for Literature study, or for research, Project Gutenberg is a valuable find.
