eBooks, FREEBIES

FREE Ebooks from Amazon


What do I love more than a good read? A good FREE read! That’s why I love reading and following blogs.

When I purchased my Android phone a few months back I noticed that I have an application on it called Amazon Kindle reader…wow, you don’t even have to buy a Kindle anymore.  I also have the Android tablet and have the Kindle reader on that as well. I know what you’re thinking but…well, I’m a writer so I need these things.

Amazon also has a free Kindle cloud reader. It’s all right there and easy to set up so that you can use the one click button to have these books sent straight to your reader.

It took me a few months to stumble across the free eBooks that Amazon.com has to offer. I’m always looking for a good deal and this one is “the real” good deal. So I thought I would share some of my recent eBook findings.

Some of these books are of no interest to me but may be of interest to someone else so I will list a few here that I’ve found today.

This post will age like all the others so keep in mind that if you find this post 2 months from now the eBooks may not be free any longer.

Book Description: Cover of the Indie Chicks 25 women 25 personal stories book

This exciting anthology contains stories from twenty-five women from different parts of the world. Their ages differ, as do their backgrounds and locations, but one thing they all have in common is a spirit of independence and a determination to not only succeed, but prevail. Whether their struggles are to maintain balance between motherhood and career, escape from an abusive relationship, or to step out in faith and pursue a dream, all of these women have forged their own path.

As women, one of our most powerful “gifts” is the ability to encourage one another. This book is an effort to encourage women across the world. These twenty-five women share stories that will make you laugh, inspire you, and maybe even make you cry. Their hope is that these stories will inspire YOUR independent spirit and allow you to live the life you were meant to live.

In addition, each woman has included a “sneak peek” into one of her own novels.

All proceeds from this book will go a charitable organization that fights breast cancer – a disease all too close to home for many of us. Our prayers and best wishes are with those who are struggling with this terrible and devastating disease. Buy a book for yourself and “gift” one to the important women in your life. Together, we can make a difference. Thank you for your support.
