Run out of books to read?

You can  borrow  e-resources for  free from West Lothian Public Libraries. If you are already a member of the Pubic Libraries use that card to access and download resources such as eBooks and eTalking Books with the BorrowBox App. 

If you don't have a membership card for the Public Library ebook service I can set you up with a Card using your school barcode. Email me on the Request form and I will send the card with instructions to on how to use BorrowBox to your English teacher.
 

Other options
Project Gutenberg; Great for reading free out of copyright classics such as Dickens (eg A Christmas Carol, Oliver, Great expectations etc) or Jane Austen (Pride and Prejudice, Emma etc). Why not listen to the classic tale of a dog in "Call of the Wild", the last book read by our book group. Note they also have titles in other languages

Audio books -  where to find them.
During lockdown Sync  https://www.audiobooksync.com/    and

Audible: were offering free services. These have now finished but you might still be interested in what they have to offer.  

Neil Gaiman with the help of friends has been reading Coraline and the Graveyard book.
And for some light relief why not listen to David Walliams and his daily chapters in Elevenses. See also the post about Harry Potter books from last Friday.
