Answer 1

You can read thousands of classics online at Project Gutenberg. They're in the public domain now and can be read freely and legally.

Most popular contemporary novels cannot be downloaded online for free. To do so would violate copyright laws. I'm sure you don't want to participate in the theft of an author's work.

You can probably find what you want at your local library. They may even have e-book checkout capabilities.

Finally, you can purchase e-books at retail outlets like Fictionwise, or you can find e-publishers you like and go to their storefronts to purchase the titles you want.

Be careful of on line reading. Books that are classics and the author is long dead are legal to read.

However current books are usually NOT legal to read unless the author gives links on his or her website and invites you to read for free. Not many want to give away their work for free. That is understandable because writing books is how they make a living.

Cory Doctorow is one of the few I know that don't mind.

Don't deal with the book pirates that steal an author's profits by tearing a book apart page by page and scanning it, then posting it on line for others to steal.

Some public libraries have paid for licenses to put ebooks on their site but you have to type in your library card number.
