Task 22. Downloading books

I had a look at Overdrive audiobooks. The ones available are certainly very limited. I chose "At Bertram's Hotel" which is an ebook to read by Agatha Christie and downloaded it onto my computer. I chose that partly because I like Agatha Christie and partly because it seemed easier to download something that runs on Adobe reader. In fact I had to update my version from 5.0 to 6.0 but I don't wish to lisen to audiobooks on my computer and I didn't especially want to download the software. I can see that if you had an MP3 player it would be good to download books and music to listen to while driving, but all the different software systems you need to download first to listen to items in diferent formats are a nuisance.
