After receiving my Kindle Fire for Christmas, I found the Pixel of Ink website. I have been downloading free books every day. This is great! Even the ones that are not free are so very reasonable in cost. You can't afford to be without it. My New Year will be so much fuller because of the wonderful books I can download through Pixel of Ink. Thank you.

Patricia Bell December 30, 2011 at 11:48 pm

My sister sent this to me and I have been hooked ever since! Great reads and an even better price most of the time. (Free) Thank you & Happy New Year!

Carol John Klinkner January 12, 2012 at 2:09 pm

I have enjoyed the books from authors that I have never heard of. Getting some of them free is a great deal. Thank you very much. I recommend this site to many people that have kindles & nooks. I'm currently looking for the help to read on my kindle.

Lee Marino January 13, 2012 at 5:40 am

Great site

Michelle Scanlon Caufield January 14, 2012 at 3:43 pm

Pixel of Ink….I'm addicted! A good addiction though….thanks for all the great reading material and all the extra cash I'm saving!

Kim Craddock January 15, 2012 at 12:03 am

I am in mad love with this site. I've found myself stepping outside of my usual reading circle of authors and discovering new ones. "The Mill River Recluse" was one of my freebies and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also read "The Color of Heaven" and was moved to tears.
I love how I can just pick up something for free, or low-cost. Keep up the great work!

John McCullough January 15, 2012 at 12:07 pm

I highly recommend Suzanne Collins' "The Hunger Games". It's one of the best books I've read in quiet some time. I'm looking forward to reading the second installment of the trilogy.

Kerry Weiss January 15, 2012 at 11:01 pm

Hope this site is as good as it sounds.

Corinne Thomson Whitaker January 17, 2012 at 12:14 pm

I look forward to seeing the next installment of Pixel Ink in my inbox every day. Thank you for the gift of free books….not just the free part, but the wonderful randomness of the choices. It gets you out of your box and introduces you to so many new authors! What a wonderful service!

http://kaylajoy-whereismymind.blogspot.com/ This is my blog, I review books that I find *mostly* on POI. I'm interested in getting a following, as well as hearing what people think about the books I've reviewed. I hope that soon it may evolve into a book club of sorts.

Aaron Palmer March 14, 2012 at 10:09 pm

Thanks Pixel!

Sharon Craig March 20, 2012 at 3:11 pm

Enjoy all the free books and array of genre. I now read books that I thought of no interest, if borrowing from a library would not have wasted my time. Love my Kindle 3G and Kindle Fire!

Patricia Hardy March 21, 2012 at 1:04 am

I have eight of the top ten on my Kindle Keyboard. How great is that? Thanks, Pixel of Ink.
