You might want to check out the Republic of Pembroke web site if you are an Austen fan.

The point is that FBreader makes it easy to download books from certain sites listed in the preferences. Did you even know that? Project Gutenberg isn't a choice. There are only two choices, a Russian site and Feedbooks.com. Feedbooks.com appears to get some books from Project Gutenberg.

However, Feedbooks.com does not work in several versions of FBreader on my tablets, meaning that zero English-language books can be dowmloaded using FBreader at my house.

No one has confirmed this problem; but I suspect it is general.

Edit: By the way, Kathy, you might check out the last post in the thread you thought I might like. It is from me.
Oops!

No, I didn't know that frbreader will look for books. I only have the version from extras so far, and I haven't found that function. Reading your post it sounded like you were having trouble finding books. Clearerly you're not. I apologise for misreading your post.
