I totally get the urge to find free reads—budgets can be tight, and books add up! For 'Now What Do I Do,' I’d check out platforms like Project Gutenberg or Open Library first; they specialize in legal free books, especially older or public-domain titles. If it’s newer, though, you might hit a wall. Sometimes authors share chapters on their websites or through newsletters as a teaser, so a quick Google search with the author’s name could lead to a pleasant surprise.
Honestly, if it’s not available freely, I’d weigh the cost against how much I want to support the author. Many indie writers rely on sales, and even a secondhand purchase or library request helps them stay afloat. Plus, libraries often have digital lending options like Libby—super convenient!
