**Updated 8/27** 10 Free Classic ebooks each week all summer long at BN.com

These books are available free already since they are public domain books, but these are well-edited rather than just scans of a physical book. B&N will be offering 10 new books a week from July 16, 2010 - September 14, 2010.

BN.com Free Library

You don't need an ereader to read them. There is a software download on BN.com that will allow you to read it on a smartphone, iPad, laptop, Sony reader, Kobo....pretty much anything but a Kindle since they are an epub format.
