If you’re looking for something with LOTS of stuff to read, how about [Project Gutenberg](http://gutenberg.net/)? They have thousands of public domain books and texts. Things like, for example, the complete works of Mark Twain in a downloadable zip file. From [Project Gutenberg](http://gutenberg.net/): > [@](#): > > What books will I find in Project Gutenberg? > …You will find the classic books from the start of this century and previous centuries, from authors like Shakespeare, Poe, Dante, as well as well-loved favorites like the Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the Tarzan and Mars books of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Alice’s adventures in Wonderland as told by Lewis Carroll, and thousands of others.
