Is there a website where i can read full length new novels?

Question

I want to know if there is a website in which you can read novels, not old ones but new ones.

Answer 1

I'm afraid not. New books are protected by copyright law.

"Works created in or after 1978 are extended copyright protection for a term defined in 17 U.S.C. § 302. With the passage of the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act, these works are granted copyright protection for a term ending 70 years after the death of the author. If the work was a work for hire (e.g., those created by a corporation) then copyright persists for 120 years after creation or 95 years after publication, whichever is shortest.
Copyrightable works created before 1978 that had not entered the public domain in 1978 received protection for the § 302 term above with the exception that those copyrights would not expire before 2003. Prior to 1978, works had to be published or registered to receive copyright protection. Upon the effective date of the 1976 Act (January 1, 1978) this requirement was removed and these works received protection despite having not been published or registered. However, Congress intended to provide an incentive for these authors to publish their unpublished works. To provide that incentive these works, if published before 2003, will not have their protection expire until 2048."

Answer 2

Besides the library, none you can read for free. There are downloadable e-books that you can purchase relatively cheaply at: http://www.cheapebookshop.com/ and http://www.tradebit.com/ebooks.php and http://www.fictionwise.com/ and this new site http://www.bookswim.com/ is the Netflix for books where you pay a certain price & rent books. There's also a paperback or audio book club you can join: http://www.booksfree.com/

I hope this helps.

Answer 3

Not that I know of,otherwise people wouldn't bother buying books!

Answer 4

I highly doubt that the authors would allow that, unless you had to subscribe or something.

Yes, it's called a "library."
