Nook Book Lending Library Club is a GR group dedicated to legal ebook sharing through the Nook's built-in Lending Library system. I'm not a member, but it looks reasonably active.
LendInk is "a free service that allows you to connect with other book lovers, loan your lendable eBooks in seconds and find new books to borrow." As some of you may know, LendInk is back up after a recent debacle.
Paperback Swap is an excellent exchange site for print and audio books. I joined a few months ago and have been gotten some great books while unloading some of mine that had just been sitting around.
(I hope a triple-post is okay)Ereader IQ is another great place to snag free Kindle books, with a wide variety of genres, lengths, authors, the whole nine yards.

i get my free books off of Barnes and Noble free link. ill post the link when I get on the computer tomorrow.
My sister turned me on to bookbub.com. Daily email with free and cheap books in your chosen genres and for your particular device.
I just joined the Nook Book Lending Club after seeing it on here. I love it! What we do is exchange each others emails and add eachother as nook friends. Then we can borrow each others books once we are friends. i have been looking for the first 3 Harry Potter books and I got them on email the 2nd day I was a member of the group. Now, this group would only work perfect if I can get my Nook to charge!
I use lendle.me to borrow books. Right now it's only available for Kindle books. It can be slow at times, depending on whether there are copies to lend, but at other times I've gotten books pretty quickly.Another perk is that while Lendle is free to use, they pay their users to loan their books. It's not a lot at all though (I've lent 8 books and made 63 cents, lol). I mainly use it because I enjoy sharing books.
I've found some good free books on http://www.epubbud.com/It's a website where readers can share their ebooks or where people can publish their own books.
Worth having a look.

I'm using LendInk right now, but I think I'll have to check lendle.me out.
I'm subscribed to a lot of Free eBook sites via Google Reader; here's the list where I found them. Some of them are quite useful.

Also: For Kindle users, this may seem obvious but if you go to the Kindle books section and type in "0.00" in the search bar, it will bring up all the books that are currently priced for free; including special promotional deals or giveaways.

That's a good tip! I didn't realize that, I'll have to try it out.

I live in Germany and I followed your link and made an account, however when I went to borrow a book it directed me to the amazon.com site and I have an account on the amazon.de (amazon germany) site.
According to the FAQ section on Lendle, the site only works in the US right now, because of Amazon's restrictions.

Have you tried LendInk, Emily? I'm not sure if it'll work for you, but at the moment I can't find anything to imply otherwise. Might be worth a shot. :)

Yep, it's for both Kindle & Nook books.
If anyone's interested in reading Brian Jacques's Redwall series, the first book is free at Amazon today!http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A...
I snagged that one, thanks for the link!
