So, I've been having a lot of fun with my new kindle. I've downloaded previews of all the new novels people have been talking about (Possession, by Elana Johnson. Preview is amazing), novels I've been hearing about for years (A Great and Terrible Beauty, Libba Bray. Also amazing), and lots of other awesome stuff (North and South, Elizabeth Gaskell. Of course).
Now I need recommendations. Like most other recently-graduated-in-English-wannabe-writers-working-on-their-first-novel, I is po', so the word free makes me happy, especially when attached to anything one can read. So tell me, knowledgeable reader, what are your favorite, the top, the best, and the free-est ebooks that I should know about?

I know there are a lot of classics available for free. My tip for scoring free ebooks is to follow authors and publishers on Twitter and fb. I got 13 Little Blue Envelopes, Wings, Goose Girl and Dreaming Anastasia this way. I've also gotten fairly cheap books this way too.
I second that the classics are great freebies. I wish I had a few recommendations, but I'll admit that some of the free or cheap books that i have gotten lately weren't very good. I keep a little money in my account and will get some of the 99 cent books, but a lot of them are self-published, and I don't think they were ready for publication.
My only other hint is to follow the "deals" section and try to catch some popular titles when they are on sale.
Ooh, I'm curious to hear the answers to this one, too. :)
Sigh... I really want to read Possession. :-)
I've been hearing a lot about Divergent too...
Did I mention that the book I have written is available for free as a kindle book? It's called Tales of Aradia the Last Witch.
