BookFace: Tagalog (Filipino) eBooks free for download...

MANYBOOKSdotNet is one of the main sources of free ebooks that offers an excellent selection of books in different digital formats (ePUB, eReader, PDF, Plucker, Mobipocket), readily available for download compatable to existing reading devices in the market such as Amazon Kindle, iPad, iPhone, Nook, Android, iLiad, Sony reader, etc.

The site is like an online library that contains thousands of the classical books by popular authors like Charles Dickens, Victor Hugo, Charles Darwin, James Royce, and many others; including some of the new ebooks by unknown writers in more than 30 languages.

Im introducing some of the books written by Filipino authors in Tagalog in the like of Honorio Lopez, Aurelio Tolentino, Francisco Balagtas and Jose Rizal. Some of these books are as follows: Esperanza (Jose Maria Rivera); Florante at Laura(Francisco Balagtas); Hindi Biro!... ó Ang Anting-Anting (José R. Francia); and Noli Me Tangere (José Rizal). To find out more, CLICK THE IMAGE ABOVE OR THE TITLE OF THIS POST!

Moreover, if you are interested to read the English version of Jose Rizal's two novels: Noli Me Tangere (The Social Cancer, 1887) and El Filibusterismo (The Reign of Greed, 1891), then just click the images below. Even myself, I havent read the English version of these novels that were originally written in Spanish, then translated to Filipino and being part of the Philippine secondary/high school curriculum.

Nice to mention those books; most of these originate from Project Gutenberg, where you can download them, and many more books related to the Philippines.

hi! I'm a big fan of reading and there is this book I've been looking everywhere but couldn't find it. It's called "Till Debt Do Us Part" by Chinkee Tan. The author is Filipino as I'm sure you know already. I was hoping you had it uploaded if you're done reading it? I'd really like to get my hands on the story. Any help would be appreciated.Thank you.

Hi. Uhm, doon po sa sinabi niyong site kung saan ako makakadownload ng free filipino books, wala po dun 'yung El Fili. Any idea po kung saan pwede pa makapagdownload nun for free? Tagalog po kasi 'yung kailangan since we were studying about it. :)) Thank you.

Reymos said...

Hello, thanks for posting your comments. I will try to find that book of Tan for you. On the other hand, El Fili is also entitled as The Social Cancer (english version).

Hello, thanks for the comment. Unfortunately, I do not have a post or journal about ebook for kids. But because of your query, I browsed one of the libraries in Quezon City that provide links to free ebooks for children... Thank you for asking which you gave me an idea to feature ebooks for children! Enjoy storytelling...
