I only read the free ebooks available from the Gutenberg site which I download to my pc then transfer to Kindle by wire.

Project gutenberg is great. You can also often find the free versions in the Kindle store by adding the word 'free' to the title search. If you read on more than one Amazon device they will sync across devices if you get them in the Kindle store.
I have 2 Fire tablets, 2 Alexa devices, and 2 Fire Sticks with Alexa, so syncing comes in nice when I want to use text-to-speech.

Agreed. In addition to project Gutenberg, I find It's also worth checking the internet archive for epub, pdf, kindle etc., downloads >
