I'm going on a weekend trip to Tahoe this week, and it's going to be my first chance to actually use the Kindle for one of the purposes for which I bought it: being able to travel without hauling my body weight in books along with me. To that end, I'm hunting down out-of-copyright books I can upload to it before I go.

So: recommend me things! Ideally either things that are already available on Project Gutenberg, or that are otherwise available freely online (plain text, html, .doc or.pdf all work, although pdfs with tons of images or really odd formatting sometimes transfer weirdly), and I'll upload them and take a look. :D I will give anything a shot, but I am particularly fond of medieval literature, Regency and Victorian social novels, and fantasy, mythology and folklore of all stripes.

(A specific request to people who are familiar with Trollope: I read The Eustace Diamonds and really liked it -- got any suggestions for what to try next?)

Ooh. I've been meaning to try Catherine Asaro.

(I read a couple of Honor Harrington books long, long ago, and I remember being entertained but thinking that Honor was perhaps a bit too perfect -- might be a good chance to give them another go, though.)
