I do this.  If you use the app "Libby" to get your books, you will only need the wifi for the short time you are actually downloading the book. 

 

You will have to have wifi for the download process though.  Then the book will be available to you even without wifi, until the load expires.


I have never heard of that one. My library apps servers have been down for a week or more it's driving me nuts not to have my audiobooks to listen to and not to be able to get more books. I emailed the library and they said it would be fixed in a day or two. That was a few days ago. At least I do have some books laying around to read.

I am so happy!!!  I have my Kindle set up and three books ready to read.  One that has been on hold at the library, a mystery I've been wanting to read, and a new mystery that was free.  The freebie is the first in a series, and I've been wanting to find a new author because I'm caught up with all of my favorite authors.

 

Thank you all so much for your help, especially @gardenman .  I was able to use my TracFone as a hotspot.  I used relatively little data to set up and download.

 

I haven't had anything to read on a weekend in weeks.  Now I'm all set!


Congratulations! A Tracfone as a hotspot can be pretty darn handy.
