Nemesis 📖
From BookFi. I tried downloading the other day and it didn't work, so I'll try a few different options and if it doesn't work, I'll probably just delete the post.
Quora to the Rescue - Nemesis 👀
I need(ed) to find Agatha Christie's Nemesis online, so that I could read it for free without having to buy it because I'm cheap and because if I haven't read a book before, I might hate it and don't want to buy it if it might turn out badly (there have been a few that I've disliked - though none I've hated so far). Unfortunately it is almost impossible to find Nemesis for free online.
Until I went to Quora... I love lists and hope has returned. I'll be checking them out but I think the first link is the most promising (update: it was a broken link). Hopefully I'll have a link up soon to where you can read Nemesis online for free. ;)
UPDATE: I got two links, one to BookFi which I've already heard of and tried (and it worked so yay I've found a link to Nemesis) and another one that I will be trying out soon: http://page2.dfpan.com/ls/bunnywong/14c4b1ff/ (it apparently as all 88 of her works, but who knows if that's accurate or if any of them work. If they do, I'll have a new post about it up soon).

YunFile/dfpan: Legit? 🤷
I doubt this site is legit AT ALL. It looks screwy and there are way too many buttons to push. But it advertises 88 of Agatha Christie's books so I hope it's aboveboard since that would be exciting, to have access to every single one of her books.
Currently I'm waiting for Nemesis to download, we'll see how that goes... apparently it takes more than 10 minutes to download for "Limited" users. Whatever. (Update, I ended up quitting. Too many buttons, didn't know which to push.)
YunFile/dfpan is not legit.

these are ones that I use all the time:
https://6booksy.com/ (to find books on here you have to google "6booksy _" with the title, you can't search the website itself)
https://novelfreereadonline.com/ (one of my favorites, because getting around the site is intuitive and easy. Same with 6booksy, you have to google it with the title of the book, you can't search on the site even though there's a search bar - it doesn't actually do anything)
https://novel12.com/ (exact same format)
https://allnovel.net/ (search bar does work, but googling it probably gets you faster results and less viruses!)
https://bluenovels.net/ (works, but it's an ugly format and I hate reading when the format is big and bulky looking)
https://www.bookfreevampire.com/ (can't search within the website, have to use google. Format is nice, though, not too many ads)
https://www.novelcool.com/ (has ads and starts at the end of the book and is a bit confusing in the way you get to page one, but the search is helpful, and design is nice)
https://novel80.com/ (pretty good format, search tool is functional and gets you where you want, no ads)
http://readsnovelonline.com/ (format is ugly but it gets you where you need to be. search tool works)
https://allnovel.net/ (same thing, ugly format, but search tool works and you can read stuff for free)
http://onlinelibr.blogspot.com/search/label/Story (this is only for Agatha Christies and Sherlock Holmes, but it's a fine layout and format, even though a bit non-intuitive)
other, random ones I've stumbled across:
https://www.free-ebooks.net/ (I kept searching for books, and it had none of them which makes me wonder how legit the site is and if all they have are trashy dime store novels. Also you have to make an account I'm pretty sure.)
http://libgen.rs/ (go to the book's link, click on the title of the book which is listed at the very very top of the page, before all the other info, and then click on "GET" at the very top of the page it takes you to. It will automatically start downloading a PDF that you can, hopefully, read. I have a chromebook and it wasn't supported on here, but it might be supported on your computer. Or that might mean it's a virus so I'd steer clear just to play it safe.)

How the emojis in the titles work.
Can't find it free online? Try this. 😲
Here's what I did with mine: find at least one paragraph from that book, somehow. It doesn't matter how. Maybe go to the library and copy onto your phone/computer or something. Somehow get your hands on a paragraph.
Then plug it into Google.
It should find you a website that has the book for free. Why? Because most sites that offer snippets of the book won't have a full paragraph - or if they do, it's a full paragraph altogether, not a full one from one place in the book (if that makes sense). That way you can weed out the fake websites and get down to the good stuff (that's how I found A Carribean Mystery).
Hope it works bc if it doesn't I don't want people complaining bc I'm kind of out of ideas. If I figure out an even better way, I'll tell you but there are dozens of ways I've already posted about earlier on here so if this one isn't satisfactory, browse my older posts via the tags. idk, maybe just give up on life.
PS. Update 10/16/18 - I was looking for Nemesis by Agatha Christie and no one had it except Archive.org which only had pictures of each page. It was fine, but I wanted to be able to highlight and copy. I thought about this, and was like "but it would take forever to copy word for word a whole paragraph..." which brings me to my point: you don't have to do a whole freakin paragraph for goodness sake I don't know what I was thinking. Just look for a sentence that is kind of in the middle of a chapter (hopefully you have access to the second or third because lots of people have the first couple for a sample so it wouldn't really help finding the whole book) and then copy it. Sentences work just as well as paragraphs so just ignore my earlier thing though a whole paragraph never hurt so if a sentence doesn't work, use a paragraph and just add onto your sentence. Try finding a sentence that people wouldn't use on a Wikipedia page or as one of their favorite quotes, things like that - because then you know you're going to get legit, for-real stuff.
Hoooope that helps.

{ read book online } 📚
(the blog itself is called { Read book online } which is why the post title looks weird.) It says that this is showing all posts with label "story" but that's where it takes you when you click on the blog title. The same thing happens when you click on the button "Home". So idk why they have to tag it but ok. It's got lots and lots of Agatha Christies. You click on the book you want to read, and it gives you a breakdown of each chapter - click on the one you want to read and you're all set! Once you reach the end of the chapter, click on the book tag (e.g., "A Carribean Mystery") which will take you back to the list of chapters for that book. Click on the title of the blog and it will take you back to all the book options.
This is the only site where I've found A Carribean Mystery, extremely grateful (yay) and also happy that it's a blog bc that means 1) no scuzzy ads and 2) probably nobody's running after them with a copyright infringement thingamajigger. But it also means they're probably breaking the copyright thing. At least it's a blog - nobody cares about blogs, do they?
...do they?

The Thief 📕
I've been meaning to get Meghan Whalen Turner's amazing book uploaded but I haven't had the chance, so here's the link and go do yourself a favor.
Enjoy!
LINK. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwkbZYEnTycjZmI1YTY0NTUtYTgzMi00YjMxLWExZGEtNTIxMTdkZjhmNzcz/edit
(sorry it looks so odd...trust me, it's Google Docs so everything's aboveboard. It's the link I use time and again to reread one of my favorite books of all time - right up there with Mara, Daughter of the Nile and When You Reach Me. It works for Queen of Attolia and King of Attolia as well - haven't tried it with the rest of the series, though. Just type in "docs.google.com queen of attolia" and it's the first link.)
A Carribean Mystery 📖
This is a little bit of a pain to navigate, but it's the only place I can find that offers a free read of Agatha Christie's A Carribean Mystery.
You have to click on the chapter you're reading/on, and then once you've reached the end of the chapter, you just click on the tag "A Carribean Mystery" which will take you back to the "list" of chapters. Unfortunately it starts you back at the top so it gets to be a bigger and bigger pain the farther you get in the book.
On the bright side, it's not very long!
As I was reading, I clicked "Older Posts" and on ch 21 it took me back to the list, but this time the list started with chapter 21 and went to the last chapter. When I clicked "Older Posts" on ch 22, it took me to ch 23, so I think you have to click the tag once you've reached the end of chapter one, but the rest of the time you can click "Older Posts". Or maybe you can click "Older Posts" on chapter one, too, idk, the setup of the blog isn't intuitive.

Archive.org 📚
I asked some people where I could get Murder at the Vicarage for free online and someone said library (eye roll) but someone helpful sent me to Archive.org. Holy cow, if anyone is still sad about oceanofpdf [this won't help but] it could work as a substitute, right? And it has free movies, too! And it won't go away because it's like non-profit blah blah blah which sounds safe haha.
Anyway that's probably where I'm going to go from now on. It's a little bit confusing at first, but I'll get the hang of it. Murder at the Vicarage you have to join the waitlist, so we'll see about the others but for now I'll be checking back periodically in hopes that maybe they'll have other stuff I want to read for free. Who knowssss.

How My Emojis Work. 🤨
where the most common emojis will show up:
📚 - site that offers a lot of free books; at least three or more.
📖 - PDF, standalone, link to one book, or a site solely dedicated to one book.
📕📘📗📙 - link to a book in a series, not a standalone.
👀 - special offers, hacks, deals, tips, and tricks.
🎥 - site that offers movies to watch free online, or link to specific movie.
4.50 From Paddington 📖
I was looking for a place to read 4.50 From Paddington online (free...as usual) and I only got scam sites and then this one showed up and it looks like it's run by someone who types them up, no offense whoever does the site stuff, but it looks above-board and innocent. Looks can be deceiving but idrc as long as I get to read the book for free. Though if it's good, I always put it on my to-buy list and try to do that so that I'm not totally sponging off of people's hard work (including the author, and the person who typed it up on the computer in the first place).
And as far as I know, that's the only book they're offering at the moment. But feel free to click around, I've only done the URL at the very bottom of the page and it took me to a site that said that domain was available. Thanks. No thanks.

Feedbooks 📚
Somebody helped me out on Goodreads awhile back and linked to a website called Feedbooks. So I thought I'd link it here and let you try to find your books.
I need help finding Greensleeves by Eloise Jarvis McGraw but they didn't have it so I'm still looking. If I find it, I am so linking it here because I want to keep it around.
But note: Feedbooks doesn't have a whole lot of books that are free - you have a choice in either buying it or leaving it for most of the books. Blue Castle by LM Montgomery was the only book I found that was free for download - though I didn't really search many other books. Anyway, tell me if you have success with this website, if you try it. I didn't.

EBooksCart: Legit? 🤷
I saw someone's comment on an earlier post, recommending a website, EBooksCart. Since I'm always up for discovering more websites that let me read books for free, I googled "ebookscart" and clicked on the first link (same as the one I linked to). Seemed perfectly above-board - as above-board as free book websites can get - so I downloaded The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
It took three clicks to download, which isn't bad - I'm ok with a roundabout way as long as I end up with the book I wanted to read - and it downloaded quickly, without any pop-ups. But when I clicked on the file, it opened up in the pictures app, instead of the app the computer usually uses (for Macs that would be iBook, for any other computer I believe it opens in Adobe Acrobat, specifically the Acrobat Reader).
Not only did it open in the wrong app, it wasn't even the right book. It was a lot of pictures and not much (readable) text, so I deleted the file.
EBooksCart is not legit.
Finding a Book When You've Forgotten Its Title 🤔💭
I'm not going to do that dumb "raise your hand if you can't find a book" thing, but I think everyone, at some point in their lives, has gone looking for a book, not sure about the title and even less sure about the author, and only the smallest bit sure about the plot - but they know they want to find it.
So here's a link I found to other links they found that are helpful for finding a book by its rough storyline - not its title.
This is also a helpful link. Meaning it's a link meant to help. So it might or it might not.
This is also a helpful link. Meaning it's a link meant to help. So it might or it might not.
I'm on the Goodreads group, and I'd love to meet you if you joined so say hi to twice_baked and I'll probably say hi back. ;) But please don't do that if you know me or you're related to me because that's just awkward and I'm almost never on Goodreads anymore anyway. Or at least I won't be if I find out you're on there too. Also if you're related, why are you on here, get off.
The Scarlet Pimpernel FULL SERIES Read Free Online! 📚
I've
used this website since I started reading the series way back when I
was...eleven, I think? I got hooked on the "mysteriously unknown
hero-figure swoops in to save the day and be gallant and crazy and ninja
about it all" and I've never regretted the time I used (wasted, maybe
lol) to read the whole series. But anyway, the Blakeney Manor is the website I've always used - my sisters introduced it to me when they found
it way back when (I think it 's bordering on 7 years now) and then when
I was old enough, they handed it down to me. So now I'm handing it to
you. Here you go, go read the Scarlet Pimpernel series and tell me which
one is your favorite (mine is Child of the Revolution, if you ever get that far).
Warning,
the link is a little bit confusing to navigate. If you want to know how
to do it in case you lose this website later on (fsr), I have a
tutorial at the very very very bottom (click "keep reading") but I also
have a direct link, directly below.
RIP OceanofPDF 😢
Ugh,
another website taken down because authors were complaining. Nah fam,
if I were an author I would be fine with having my work up - because if
it's actually good, people will want to have a handheld copy. At least, I
do. I read all of the Queen's Thief series online and I'm hoping to buy it soon so you authors need to get the heck over it.
Anyway
ok. I saw the comments you guys had left and I was surprised, so I
clicked on the link and... ?? DUDE WHERE THAT SITE AT THO?? You guys
were right, totally gone.
So I went searching since maybe it was my computer or your computer or something other than gone - and I got a reddit thread,
top link. If you don't want to go read all of it, I'll spare you the
sob story and cut to the chase: yeah, it's gone. All gone.
Authors
apparently complained, it's rumored that there may be legal trouble,
and neither email is working (one says it's not an email address
anymore, and one says it didn't send). The guy usually replies to emails
but not this time. Most people are sad because where they live books
are expensive, but some are sad because they're penny pinchers (that
would be me - also I like reading the book and deciding whether it's
worth my money or not before I buy it, that too).
You can read about the authors' uproar over the website right here. It's actually kind of sad, because it sounds like the four people who worked on oceanofpdf worked really hard and actually put effort into it, typing it out by hand! Hopefully they can be back up in another place pretty soon. 🙁 This is telling me I should probably save all my work in case this one gets pulled down, too - not like anyone notices a blogger blog but I'm still worried now... 😋 (no but really, should I...?)

So if books are expensive or inaccessible where you live, I'd suggest this website
since it seems above-board and also in alliance with authors. Warning,
it's a little bit confusing to navigate. If you need help, leave a
comment/email me. I hope you don't tho because I haven't done it in a
while.
But try not to be too open about using that site because I don't want THEM disappearing too, good grief.
Planet eBook - 100% Free Literature 📚
Since you're probably all sad about oceanofpdf, I thought I'd boost your confidence in free ebook websites and give you another - even though I already offered you unglue.it but if you don't trust that website, here's another to be skeptical about! If it's not good enough, oh well, I tried.
I searched for They Do It With Mirrors because that's the book I'm on the hunt for currently, but they don't have it whyyy guyyyys. They don't have any Agatha Christies (!!) even though she's pretty classic. Thankfully, they do offer Baroness Orczy's The Scarlet Pimpernel so they're not totally whackers. I guess. But they only have the first. (Which reminds me, link to the complete series online is coming soon!)

But they only have the first. (Which reminds me, link to the complete series online is coming soon!)
Anyway I already gave you the link, but I'll include it at the very bottom if you missed it. It's all above board but who knows? It'll probably go away any day now (ugh) so jump on it and find all your favorites. I've browsed their selection (only clicked on 1984, so not sure if all of them work but pretty confident) and they seem to go for the classics. Which is fine, because I do too, but if you're not into that and you want something more Harry Potter or Hunger Games (ew but ok), well then this isn't your website. You can try, but I doubt you'll find anything. It's worth a shot, though, if you're desperate!
PS. I did try searching for, in this order and style... hunger games, harry potter, lord of the rings, The Hobbit - so even when I capitalize, they still don't have it. Haha. Maybe you should get better taste in books. << just kidding, my dad loves LOTR so I can't completely judge. And two of my friends love Harry Potter so I almost can't judge at all but I'm still doing it.
27 Free Short Stories You Can Read Online Right Now 👀
Big whoop but I found the link and thought I'd share. The title says thirty but it's actually twenty-seven so I don't know what they're smoking. Anyway, you might be interesting, idk, you might as well try it out.
They Do It With Mirrors 📖
I just googled it, like I always do: "they do it with mirrors agatha christie read free online" and none of them were helpful except English E-Reader's link because that one actually gets you somewhere. You have to download it, though, so if you don't want to, this isn't helpful.
But you can read They Do It With Mirrors here. Click on the option you want, epub is the way I always go and it's worked for me every time, but I think they're all work-able. I've never tried any of the others tho, so good luck and tell me how it goes if you do.
I'll be on the lookout for a read online option for this book bc my computer doesn't have enough space for a whole book but this is the backup plan for now. :\

OceanofPDF 📚
Just found a new website for free booksss. I love finding those. Found this one because I wanted to download a pdf of Conspiracy of Kings by Megan Whalen Turner and got it off of this site: oceanofpdf.com << link to the first book in the series, which you should definitely read if you haven't already. link to the home page >> oceanofpdf.com
But I think I'm going to be going back to that site at least one more time, if not a lot more than that, because you can request a book, you can look for books by authors, or books by genres...it's basically like Project Gutenberg only downloading and who knows what kinds of books they have - Project Gutenberg is only English novels.

A ton of people (like, idk five or more) kept recommending Cinder to me, and I was like GUYS PLZ STOP, THAT BOOK LOOKS LIKE A CRAP FANTASY FICTION BOOK, THAT IS SO MUCH NO. But then...ok. Yeah. Haha what a funny story. But my friend and I were talking about books fsr and she mentioned how much she liked the Lunar Chronicles and I was like ok am I going MAD or is this book following me around.
Well I trust her judgement and she (generally) won't read anything that I wouldn't read, it's mostly clean and above-board (tho I do read John Grishams and she had a book she didn't want to mention because she said I wouldn't be comfortable reading it - lol she doesn't even know who John Grisham is, so we'll see how well she judges my comfort level BUT ANYWAY. I'm ok with her thinking I'm not comfortable with some stuff because for the most part I'm not. Even kissing is gross, esp in books because they have to describe it, they can't just get away with filming it for 0.2948 seconds). Anywayyy so yeah and our tastes, tho they do differ (PJO, ew. HP, ew. LOTR, ew. Fantasy, ew. Romance, ewewew), but generally the books she thinks I'd like, I do like. Some more than others (ahem Tattooed Potato which I just got for my birthdayyy, s/o to my fren). This is getting weird and way too long, so yeah I decided I would read it but she's taking forever to loan me the book so I googled "Cinder read free online" and here are all the links I got, from most helpful and readable to least. Enjoiii.
https://www.readanybook.com/ebook/cinder-565162 << I actually have used that website, so I trust them.
I'll see if I can get the rest of them on easier-to-use websites, but for now you can find all of them to read free online RIGHT HERE. Yay for me.

Finding Books / Websites With Books (FREE) 👀
Quora has so many answers to my problem. I was (still am) looking for a free download link to Murder At The Vicarage which is proving a lot harder than they normally are. But I went to Quora < that link < and I just went down the list and boiiii do I have some juicy links. None of them are what I'm looking for, but they have lots of other Agatha Christies that I might look for! I'm so excited. I can't wait.
Here are the links I need to sort and figure out (see if they're actually true to their word):
Agatha Christie Complete Collection download (<< took me to a funky site so I gave up before my computer could be taken over haha but then scrolled down and he had like ten comments, everyone like eek it works thank yewww so idk I'll have to try it again later)
Google Drive Links (Complete) (<< I'm interested in their hacking books, and their novel book link actually works, so I linked it below)
HarperCollins (I tried clicking on the android option but I had to install the app called BookShout which is probably a legit link bc HarperCollins linked to it, and they're a real company with a reputation at stake. But I can't install BookShout because I don't have any devices connected to my gmail account - at least I can add it to my wishlist when I do have a device connected. Anyway, if you have a device connected, try installing BookShout. They seem pretty aboveboard.)
Calibre (it's an app but you can download to Windows. I haven't, yet, because my computer is crammed and I don't need the app. But they linked to it on Quora and then I went to unglue.it and they linked it there, too, so I think it's all good. unglue.it also linked to Project Gutenburg and both unglue and Project Gutenberg are donations-only, so I trust the sites they link to - but I haven't tried Calibre.)
YIIZZZZZ I FOUND THEE BOOKK!!! BookFi is my savior so click here. Or just go to BookFi and find your own book. <3 WOW.
Warning: they have an ad that pops up right above the download link that says "Download now" - don't click on that one. The real link is the very last download button. Light green until you roll over it w/ yo mouse (turns light blue), it looks better than the ones above it which were dark blue. idk about you tho. Goooood luckkk. (also s/o to Quora for giving me a gem of a site. Now I have like four lol)

Chapter 37 - My Favorite Part in The Laughing Cavalier
{ Warning! Kind of spoilers ahead. }
"Death in itself matters but little," mused the philosopher with his gently ironical smile. "I would have chosen another mode than hanging . . . but after all 'tis swift and sure; and of course now she will never know."
Know what, O philosopher? What is it
that she -- Gilda -- with the fair curls and the blue eyes, the
proud firm mouth and round chin -- what is it that she will never
know?
She will never know that a nameless, penniless
soldier of fortune has loved her with every beat of his heart,
every thought of his brain, with every sinew and every aspiration.
She will never know that just in order to remain near her, when
she was dragged away out of Rotterdam he affronted deliberately
the trap into which he fell. She will never know that for
her dear sake, he has borne humiliation against which every nerve
of his splendid nature did inwardly rebel, owning to guilt and
shame lest her blue eyes shed tears from a brother's sin.
She will never know that the warning to the Stadtholder came from
him, and that he was neither a forger nor a thief, only just a
soldier of fortune with a contempt for death, and an unspoken
adoration for the one woman who seemed to him as distant from
him as the stars.
But there were no vain regrets in him now;
no regret of life, for this he always held in his own hand ready
to toss it away for a fancy of an ideal -- no regret of the might-have-been
because he was a philosopher, and the very moment that love for
the unattainable was born in his heart he had already realized
that love to him could only mean a memory.
Therefore when he watched the preparations
out there in the mist, and heard the heavy blows upon the wooden
planks and the murmurs of his sympathizers at their work, he only
smiled gently, self-deprecatingly, but always good-humouredly.
If the Lord of Stoutenburg only knew how little
he really cared.
100 Vampire Novels 📚
(7novels is also an option, when you want to read something online)
I was reading The Man in the Brown Suit on 100vampire-novels.com, and I figured out a way to read on that website without too much discomfort and confusion:
1) when you read and it looks like
this
sometimes, that means that the word
"this"
is italicized. Unfortunately, the website doesn't seem strong enough to handle italicized words, so it just bumps it down to the next line. Makes it hard to read.
2) when you see this: — it means that either you have an opening comma (example instead of 'this' it would look like —this') OR it's replacing an n-dash (which is this: - ). Example, instead of "hello—I'm Ted", it's "helloâ”I'm Ted"
I feel like I cracked a code or something. So smart of me. Hopefully I'll get around to translating The Man in the Brown Suit and then post it on here so that people don't have to figure that out and read it from there.

Wikisource 📚
I don't think it's just for books but I did find The Laughing Cavalier on it and went from there to a page with lots of books listed (at least I think they're books), so I haven't checked them out yet, but I'll get there someday when I stop reading like FIVE BOOKS AT A TIME. Every time I think I'm done and I'll just read one book at a time but then I start another book and never finish the other and it keeps happening...
and I'm also trying to get a YT channel started with my friend so who has any time for books anymore.
e-books vs e-Reader 🕶 📚
English e-Reader | English e-books
(links open in new tab)
The most obvious differences would be the websites themselves, closely followed by the favicons (English e-books is a gold "E" and English e-Reader's is just a pair of nerd glasses). But I think the biggest difference is that English e-books is set up more like a blog and e-Reader is like a real website.
Also I used to use e-Reader a lot like six months ago and to me it's the more reliable of the two. I have no idea if they're related in any way, but the names are very similar so e-books might be the blog for e-Reader (they both have the same books on their front page so it makes me think I'm right).
( UPDATE: I am. I tried downloading The Testament by John Grisham and it took me to a 404 error, with a link back to the main page. I clicked on that link and it took me to e-Reader. So yes they're connected. )

So for those of you who like English books, I would suggest getting them off of the e-Reader because I've used that website multiple times. And e-books has something going on with them. They malfunction sometimes.
One more thing: e-books has lousy books for the first few pages. e-Reader is oriented towards the people who like classics, but only English classics. There aren't any American classics.

Future Books 📚
I have a lot of things I have to get done, but I have a list of books (< link, opens in new tab) that I'm hoping I can put up here when I have time. I included the link because if one of the books is one you've wanted to read, then go ahead and read it on that site and then later I'll have it up here and you don't have to wait. Also because I'm proud of myself for putting together a list so that I don't lose track of which books I can find where. :P

unglue.it 📚
I just found a website (unglue.it << link, opens in new tab) that has a lot of books. I haven't tried downloading anything yet, so we'll see where that goes, but so far I think it's an ok site. They say that all of their books are free to read - either they're distributed with a free license, or they're in the public domain. So it sounds sort of legit and I'm willing to give it a try. If they have any books that I haven't been able to find on the internet, I'm sold.
