Yesterday, July 14, 2014, the free book event being offered by DigitalBookDay.com came to a screeching halt when the server crashed–and crashed again. Over 400 e-books were available for free.

Today, there is a post on the website announcing that they will be keeping the site open another day due to the server crashes that kept many people from accessing the free books. Readers are cautioned to double check book prices as all authors may not be able to keep their books free for an extra day.

According to the site, even with the server crashes, over 10,000 readers were able to download over 70,00 books.

According to the blog stats on my post yesterday, there was a huge amount of interest in this free book event. 🙂
