Books that can't be found at Open Library (or are only borrowable for 1 hr), but which ARE available for (14-day) borrowing from Archive.org. You'll have to search Archive.org for a link not availalable thru OL. Status sometimes changes (some become available at OL again).

These used to be on my other lists, but their availability was switched to just 1 hour, and they can only be read in a browser, not downloaded. Sometimes they switch back to 14-day borrows. Some may be found at archive.org for 14-day borrow, even if not through this site.

For younger readers and middle grade.

Supposed to be squeaky clean romantic books (I hope!) -- despite a few embarrassing-looking covers and some corny titles.

Fiction, YA or older.

Holiday (mostly Christmas) fiction / literature for all ages. See the following lists for Holiday Nonfiction or Holiday Cooking and Crafts. (All of these lists are mainly for Christmas.)

These were borrowable and on my to-read lists, but have now been removed from Open Library. Keep an eye open in case another version becomes available (or becomes available at OverDrive). Status sometimes changes (some have become available again).

Not on OpenLibrary, but borrowable from archive.org. But only for 1 hour at a time, to be read in a browser; not downloadable. Sometimes they change status.

Mermaids, sirens, selkies, and people who live underwater who aren't so magical.

Can search again later to see if any books on this list become available.

Books about holidays, including ideas for celebrating, history, and traditions throughout the world. See the following lists for Christmas / Holiday Fiction or Holiday Cooking and Crafts. (Each of these lists is mainly for Christmas.)
