DJonesducasse: Just for info, if you're reading books on the kindle app on an android tablet, there's multiple apps on the play store that lists around 150-250  books available for free from the kindle store eg https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cleanenergy.freebooksbuddy&hl=en14:37
DJonesducasse: I normally find between 1-4 free kindle books per day14:38

DJonesThere used to be one for kobo books as well, but thats disappeared from the play store14:39
