    Online audio books available free at the library too. Also e-books. No need to buy a Kindle, just download the reader free.

    Online audio books and e-books are both available from the virtual version of the library where I work. This includes the latest titles. The only problem that people regularly have is that most e-books are in ePub format, which you can't AIUI read on a Kindle, so most of our borrowers have Sony ebook readers, iPads or use laptops/desktops.

    It's also worth checking if you have to pay. Our online audio books are free to borrow, whereas people have to pay to borrow audio books on CD or cassette (concessions excepted).
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.
