Awesome Website: DailyLit


So, instead of studying for my midterm tomorrow I was procrastinating online when I came upon an amazing website.


I've only been exploring the website for a little bit but from what I understand, it's like having a whole library of books right at your finger tips. Many of the pieces that we read for C&E last semester are here online for free because they are considered public domain. All you need to do is register and you only pay for the books that you want to read that cost money. Anything free that you want to read you do a quick search for in the DailyLit database and then just click on it, fill out the send information, and it gets sent to your e-mail or in RSS format and voila you can enjoy in the comfort of your dorm without having to go the library or bookstore! I just got the first installment of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein sent to me and it's identical to what's in my C&E Frankenstein novel. Alright, time to get studying, I hope you find this website useful.
