Free Classics from B&N (nook)

Barnes and Noble is continuing their free Classics in the B&N Free Library this week, with a new set of free classics, eleven of which have not be offered for free previously. This weeks theme is Women Who Inspired Us:

1. Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray
2. Voyage Out by Virginia Woolf
3. Villette by Charlotte Bronte
4. Main Street by Sinclair Lewis
5. Night and Day by Virginia Woolf
6. O Pioneers! by Willa Cather
7. Portrait of a Lady by Henry James
8. Far From the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy
9. House of Mirth by Edith Wharton
10. Daisy Miller and Washington Square by Henry James
11. Nana by Emile Zola
12. Bleak House by Charles Dickens

These editions are not exactly the same as you would find at Gutenberg; Barnes and Noble Classic Series editions generally have been more carefully proofread and have introductions and scholarly notes inserted in the beginning to aid in understanding the text. If you are building a summer reading list for a student, stocking up for lit classes in college or just want to revisit the classics, these are a great (free) resource.These are DRM'd epubs, though, so will only be readable on a nook or one of the B&N reader apps.
