Free Books at Amazon
While blog hopping today, I happened to visit Amazon related site by Bhumika, a top commentator on this blog. There was a post named Download Free Books from Amazon mentioning free books distribution by Google. Free books surprised me but then they are just novels that were written by lesser known Authors for the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Awards. I think it's a novel idea that will help unpublished Authors and books a stage to showcase their work and to compete for the Awards at the same time. I too have passion for reading books but get very less time to devote to them and whatever time I can spare for reading goes to reading Technical Books. The last book that I read was "The Da-Vinci Code" in 2006 that I read after the movie released. From the free books that are available there I would love to read those under Mystery, Thriller & Suspense category. The other categories available are Historical Fiction, General Literature and Sci-Fi & Fantasy. A Technical category could have been a good idea but I think it's a waste to think about it now as the Awards are now nearing completion.

This is a great idea. I know someone who is looking to get their book published but has not had any offers as of yet. Unless they themselves want to spend their own money to publish it themselves, something like this would help them a lot!
