Just discovered this this year. One of services our library uses takes you to Amazon and you get the Kindle version. Our library also does music and movie borrowing.

Nice thing is, you never run out of something to read if you have internet access. If you are going without it for a few days, you can download several books at a time to stock up!

You also might check out The Fussy Librarian. Mostly free books, lots of self published, some well known authors, mostly free.

Look up bookbub, I get an email every Friday with cheap and even free books featured, based on the categories for which I indicated interest. My kindle got full this month and I had to delete some (they're still on the kindle cloud storage though) to make room for a couple new ones. Bookbub costs me nothing.

My wife is a big Kindle reader, I'll let her know about this.
