The link below is to an article that offers some suggestions on how to complete books that you start to read. I think it is probably a fairly common problem, having a book (or many) lying about that you haven’t been able to finish. I seem to have this problem increasingly these days, so perhaps there are some tips here to help.

Free Book: FreeClassicAudioBooks.com


The link below is to a website where you can download free audio books in formats for the iPod and mp3s.

There are many classics available for download including Treasure Island (R. L. Stevenson) and Huckleberry Finn (Mark Twain). The King James Bible is also there, as is Pilgrim’s Progress (John Bunyan).

So if you love reading, but are unable to read for some reason, perhaps an audio book is the way to go for a while.
