I’ve spent countless summers diving into free books online, and I’ve found some fantastic spots. Project Gutenberg is my go-to for classics—everything from 'Pride and Prejudice' to 'The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' is there, and it’s all free because the copyrights have expired. For more modern reads, Open Library lets you borrow ebooks just like a real library, and you can find hidden gems like 'The Alchemist' or 'The Little Prince' if you’re quick. If you’re into audiobooks, Librivox has volunteers reading public domain books, which is perfect for lazy summer afternoons. Don’t overlook your local library’s website either—many offer free ebook rentals through apps like Libby or OverDrive, and you can snag bestsellers like 'Where the Crawdads Sing' without spending a dime.

Finding free summer reads online is easier than you think, and I’ve got a treasure trove of recommendations. For classics, Project Gutenberg is unbeatable—it’s where I discovered 'Dracula' and 'Jane Eyre,' and everything is free to download. If you want something more contemporary, Open Library is a goldmine; I’ve borrowed everything from 'The Hunger Games' to 'The Fault in Our Stars' without paying a cent.

Audiobook lovers should check out Librivox, where volunteers narrate public domain books—perfect for listening by the pool. Don’t forget about Kindle’s free section on Amazon; I’ve snagged bestsellers like 'The Girl on the Train' during limited-time promotions. For indie authors, platforms like Wattpad and Medium offer free serialized stories, and I’ve stumbled on some incredible hidden gems there.

Lastly, social media communities like Goodreads groups or Reddit’s r/FreeEBOOKS often share links to temporary freebies, so it’s worth keeping an eye on those. Happy reading!

Summer is the perfect time to curl up with a free book, and I’ve found some great places to score them. Project Gutenberg is my favorite for timeless classics—I reread 'Anne of Green Gables' there last summer, and it felt like revisiting an old friend. For newer titles, Open Library has a rotating selection of borrowable ebooks, and I’ve enjoyed everything from 'The Martian' to 'Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine.'

If you’re into audiobooks, Librivox is a fantastic resource, especially for road trips. I also love browsing the free sections of Kindle and Apple Books; they often feature seasonal promotions, like beach reads or thrillers. For a more community-driven experience, Wattpad offers free serialized novels, and I’ve found some surprisingly gripping stories there. Don’t forget to check your local library’s digital collection too—mine had 'Big Little Lies' available last month, and it was the highlight of my summer.

Find Him “Somebody has taken Eli.” … Olivia’s knees buckled. If not for Dean catching her, she would have hit the floor. Nothing was more torturous than the silence left behind by a missing child. Then the phone rang. Two weeks earlier… “Who is your mom?” Dean asked, wondering if he knew the woman. “Her name is Olivia Reed,” replied Eli. Dynamite just exploded in Dean’s head. The woman he once trusted, the woman who betrayed him, the woman he loved and the one he’d never been able to forget.  … Her betrayal had utterly broken him. *** Olivia - POV  She’d never believed until this moment that she could shoot and kill somebody, but she would have no hesitation if it meant saving her son’s life.  *** … he stood in her doorway, shafts of moonlight filling the room. His gaze found her sitting up in bed. “Olivia, what do you need?” he said softly. “Make love to me, just like you used to.” He’d been her only lover. She wanted to completely surrender to him and alleviate the pain and emptiness that threatened to drag her under. She needed… She wanted… Dean. She pulled her nightie over her head and tossed it across the room. In three long strides, he was next to her bed. Slipping between the sheets, leaving his boxers behind, he immediately drew her into his arms. She gasped at the fiery heat and exquisite joy of her naked skin against his. She nipped at his lips with her teeth. He groaned. Her hands explored and caressed the familiar contours of his muscled back. His sweet kisses kept coming. She murmured a low sound filled with desire, and he deepened the kiss, tasting her sweetness and passion as his tongue explored her mouth… ***

The last thing Miranda thought when she responded to a prison pen pal request was to find true love. Joel, well, he was only hoping to pass time and maybe if he was lucky, he'd find someone to have a little fun with after doing ten years of hard time in the state penitentiary for a crime he committed when he had just barely turned eighteen years old. He had been hardened by the things he'd seen and the experiences of imprisonment and no longer believed in lovey dovey fairy tales or happily ever after. So hardened in fact, that he knew women only led to one thing-trouble. Not even a good girl like Miranda would break him ever again. Not with her long dark hair, those hypnotizing amber-eyes, and definitely not those full lips that would look so good…nope, nope, nope. What neither one expected was to find the perfect balance of emotional and physical attraction. Can Miranda's persistence and commitment soften and heal Joel's untrusting heart or will Joel break Miranda in ways she has never experienced before? This is the first book of three in the Locked-Up Lovers series. Enjoy!

He starts nibbling on my chest and starts pulling off my bra away from my chest. I couldn’t take it anymore, I push him away hard and scream loudly and fall off the couch and try to find my way towards the door. He laughs in a childlike manner and jumps on top of me and bites down on my shoulder blade. “Ahhh!! What are you doing! Get off me!!” I scream clawing on the wooden floor trying to get away from him.He sinks his teeth in me deeper and presses me down on the floor with all his body weight. Tears stream down my face while I groan in the excruciating pain that he is giving me. “Please I beg you, please stop.” I whisper closing my eyes slowly, stopping my struggle against him.He slowly lets me go and gets off me and sits in front of me. I close my eyes and feel his fingers dancing on my spine; he keeps running them back and forth humming a soft tune with his mouth. “What is your name pretty girl?” He slowly bounces his fingers on the soft skin of my thigh. “Isabelle.” I whisper softly.“I’m Daniel; I just wanted to play with you. Why would you hurt me, Isabelle?” He whispers my name coming closer to my ear.I could feel his hot breathe against my neck. A shiver runs down my spine when I feel him kiss my cheek and start to go down to my jaw while leaving small trails of wet kisses. “Please stop it; this is not playing, please.” I hold in my cries and try to push myself away from him.

I love diving into books that have been brought to life on the big screen, especially during summer when I have more time to enjoy both. One of my all-time favorites is 'The Fault in Our Stars' by John Green. The book is heartbreakingly beautiful, and the movie captures the essence of Hazel and Gus's love story perfectly. Another great pick is 'Crazy Rich Asians' by Kevin Kwan. The book is a hilarious and lavish romp through Singapore's elite, and the movie adds stunning visuals and a killer soundtrack. For something more adventurous, 'The Hunger Games' by Suzanne Collins is a thrilling read, and the movies do an excellent job of bringing Katniss's world to life.

They’re breezy and full of sunshine. If I’m in the mood for adventure, I pick up 'The House in the Cerulean Sea' by TJ Klune—it’s whimsical and heartwarming. I also consider the setting. Books set in tropical locations or small coastal towns, like 'Summer of '69' by Elin Hilderbrand, instantly transport me to vacation mode. Lastly, I check reviews and recommendations from friends or book communities to avoid duds. Summer is too short for bad books.

I've always been drawn to books that capture the vibrant energy of anime, and 'Sword Art Online' by Reki Kawahara is a perfect summer pick. The mix of action, adventure, and virtual reality feels like diving into an epic anime series. The characters are relatable, and the stakes are high, making it hard to put down.

I’ve spent every summer buried in books, and some authors just *get* the season. Emily Henry is my go-to for summer reads—her books like 'Beach Read' and 'People We Meet on Vacation' have that perfect mix of sun, humor, and heart.

If you want something lighter but still addictive, Sophie Kinsella’s rom-coms, like 'The Beach Hut,' are pure fun. For a touch of mystery under the summer sun, Elin Hilderbrand’s Nantucket-set novels, like '28 Summers,' are unbeatable. These authors turn summer into a vibe you can hold in your hands.
