This used to be called “Kindle First”, and Amazon just changed the name, but it still is the same thing. How it works is that once you sign up for this, each month on the first, they send you an email with around 4-5 books of different genres. You can look at the info on each book and choose whichever one you want and download it for free.
These are usually new books that are not even on the Kinde Store yet, and there is always an interesting selection to choose from.
If you have Amazon Prime, you can also borrow a lot of books from the Prime Reading Library. You can borrow the book (or magazine) for as long as you want to keep it; but you can only have about 10 books at a time checked out, so as you return the ebooks you can check out new ones.
You do not have to have an actual Kindle to read any of these books, just the Kindle app on your tablet or computer will work. I have a little Kindle Fire, and all that I use it for is reading books because it is the perfect size for that, and very lightweight.
Just in case you didn’t already know about these, there is also Bookbub.com, and Bookgorilla.com and both of these websites have free or discounted ebooks that you can get. Once you go to the website and register, they send you an email each day with the new books that have been listed that are in the categories that you choose when you register (these can be changed or modified anytime).
Here is the link to sign up for Amazon First Reads, and you can also see the selection of ebooks for January.
