I Got Some Free Books, and the Internet is Being A Child

My internet keeps doing that thing where it says "problem loading page" and then "Firefox can't find the server at [someplace I want to go]" and you know what, it's not cool. It's not cool at all. I have to tell the internet "Internet, you lying douche! You found that page just fine yesterday, you know good and well where it is!". This does not help. Because I've yelled at it, the internet retaliates by going super slow and getting lost again.
It's like a revengeful child.

So!
Jesse and I went to town today because he's doing physical therapy because his shoulder is all jacked up. While we where there I looked for free books for my Nook.
I got two(although the second one wasn't really free)!
The first was The Hunt, by Jan Neuharth. It's a mystery. I'm really not usually into mysteries written recently because most of them feature either a single dad who isn't looking for love, but finds it anyway or a lady cop/reporter/the like who is strong yet sexy and is attracted to some mysterious new guy who has something to do with whatever mystery is going on. That being said: free book. I obviously got it.
*Side note: I do adore the Dexter books. Those are the best.

The other thing I got was...
For 99 cents...
The Complete Works of L.M. Montgomery!!
I'm so excited! I have fond memories of watching the Anne of Green Gables(and Avonlea, and where ever else she went) movies with my mother and our neighbors, eating popcorn and making the boys(my dad and brother) leave. I was a little nervous when I started reading earlier(What if it was terrible?! What if it ruined the movies for me?!!), but I'm liking what i've read so far a lot. 
Now, I must go and read until the wee hours of the morning.
