Project Gutenberg is on the fedi now!

They're a brilliant and fantastic, volunteer- and donation-run resource for free e-books, especially older forgotten about works which are hard to find in print.

Can't recommend them highly enough. No e-reader needed, I use my tablet in dark mode. Do check them out.
