The Public Is Your Domain

Everyone talks about reading the classics - and now you can - for free.  If you have an e-reader, just about every "classic" is available in the public domain.  For example, if you have a Kindle, you can get the Three Musketeers for free.  (Such classics in paperback or hardback range in price from a few bucks to ten dollars.)  The same applies to other e-readers like nook and kobu.  And if you can't find them at storefronts, you can also try Project Gutenberg, which claims over 36,000 titles on a variety of devices (just don't expect to find The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo on this list).
