Re: Books Forum
There are so many freely available books in Theravada that the problem is deciding on which I should be reading first 
Re: Books Forum
You could use the two threads I linked above to narrow your choice. Furthermore, if you are still new to the path, you could have a look at the introductory resources thread in the discovering theravada forum.
