Any (e)book recommendations?

On 20 October 2009 with 10 comments

Dear lazyweb,

Lately I’ve taken to reading ebooks on my phone and I’m running out of good material. I’m not picky with any book genres and couldn’t care less if I was recommended a book about gardening as long as it’s a good read. Here I am asking for any good (e)books, classic or hidden-in-a-dusty-corner-of-the-internet, I don’t mind. If you can provide a download link too (preferrably free and in plaintext format, but I don’t mind PDF/doc/odt) that would really be awesome, but otherwise book titles are also appreciated.

If you know any good ebook resources where I can easily get free ebooks in sane formats (see above), or even a trusted and cheap paid site, I’d also be happy to know of these.

… or you could just ignore me.

Hi, i randomly came across your blog
Seems awesome :p
oh, and i’m so into books, and i love recommending them, so i thought that it would be ok to look creepy just to recommend books :/
Uh, Bad Monkeys by Matt Ruff is awesome.
and Like A Flowing River by Paulo Coelho is one of my favorites
So are ‘Stargirl’, ‘Love, Stargirl’, ‘gingerbread’ – rachel cohn, ‘a suitable boy’ – vikram seth (warning-it’s 1474 pages), ‘a hundred years of solitude’ gabriel g. marquez.
Uh, hope you enjoy those!

Thanks for the suggestions I’ll look into those.

I’ve read Paulo Coelho’s collection and quite enjoyed all of his books. Recently I’ve started reading the Foundation trilogy by Issac Asimov. So far I’m really enjoying it!

Hmm, I haven’t heard of that, but I shall look it up
Oh, and About A Boy is quite awesome, i read it yesterday.

In case you haven’t yet, I’d cordially recomend Cory Doctorow’s “Little Brother”:

Hey hook,

Yep read and enjoyed. I really enjoyed the blurb at the beginning most than the actual story though

gutenberg.com is quite a popular one with hundreds of e-books, though they are mostly classics.

Dion Moult says: (12 November 2009)

gutenberg.org is the right address apparently – thanks for the suggestion! I’ll have a proper browse through perhaps on Sunday to pick out the classic’s I’ve missed.

(in my favourite formats too!)

I do some programming here and there and have become fluent in XHTML, CSS, PHP and MySQL.

I play the piano and compose music. I hate this blog design but I'm never happy with any design.
