Today’s Free Kindle eBooks

Updated: Aug 16, 2018 · Posted on

Free Kindle eBooks

As usual, I've put together a list of free Kindle eBooks. Many of these are available to everybody! For the longest time, I thought they were only for Amazon Prime members, however I discovered anybody can read these free eBooks with any number of free Kindle apps. Be it on your phone, computer, or tablet, you can download a Kindle app and get these books for free!

They're split into different categories and were all free as of this morning, though please make sure they're still free when you go to redeem them since sometimes these promos only last for a few hours / days.

Hopefully, you can find something fun to read. 📚 😃 And as usual, please check the price before you download. These free books are often time-based and will go up in price after a certain amount of time, so before you download, make sure the price is $0.00!

On the Fence About a Kindle?

I was too. A few summers ago, I bought my first Kindle and promptly let it gather dust in my desk for months. Flash forward to January. I get snowed in, the power goes out, and I discover my impulse-buy deep in my desk while hunting for candles. The battery was so strong on it, that it still had a few hours left even though I hadn't charged it since I first bought it.

I haven't put it down since. I'm the only person who somehow gets addicted to an electronic device during a power outage.

Some of my friends complain that reading books and newspapers on an electronic device is sacrilege and I used to agree. However, when I last moved apartments, I realized I owned enough books to fill the Ancient Library of Alexandria. Captain Beatty would fry me alive if he discovered my hoard. I'd probably thank him too. Just the thought of moving them again is giving me a hernia.

Remember, you don't actually have to own a Kindle to read many of these free ebooks. You can download the free Kindle app to your phone, tablet, or computer!

  1. I love my kindle! I think I’m on my third one. I use it for EVERYTHING! Hubby bought me a brand new lap top about five years ago, and I think I’ve had it out maybe three times. I have well over 3,000 ebooks and MAYBE 5% of those 3,000+ are purchases. I too, love the section here for free ebooks. My next favorite free ebooks email is bookbub.com. Not every book at bookbub is free….discounted and free….but they do get some great free ones each day. You can tell them what genres you prefer at sign up. And of course, bookbub itself is free. 😉

    And Goob? I ‘ve been a fan of yours for………it’s been so long, I can’t remember when I first joined! LoL LOVE your sense of humor!! Kudos to you for staying with us all for all these years!

    • Kristie, thank you so much for the comment, I’m glad my humor is appreciated by anyone other than me 😀 Here’s to many more years of laughter and another 3,000 free ebooks!

  2. Hey Goob. Thanks for the always interesting and sometimes useful comments and info from HIF. One of my favorite emails besides the humorous junk I delete every day. Appreciate the wit you provide and some fun stuff to boot. Kindle freebies especially helpful so I don’t have to peruse Amazon for eleventeen hours to find good FREE reading. Have received some nice free samples and coupons too. Keep up the Goob stuff. Helping to spread the word. Loyal fan.

    • Dave, thanks for both the message and being a fan! Seriously, you put a giant smile on my face and for that, I’m grateful 🙂

  5. The free kindle books are one of my favorite posts! Keep them coming, please. 🙂

    • Awesome! The list gets updated DAILY now between noon-3pm, even if I don’t push it to the top of HIF each time 🙂

  6. Thank you for making amazing list of all free ebooks. I have download all Classic eBooks and Cooking & Food eBooks.

    • The prices do change on these after a day or two, so make sure it’s listed as $0.00 before you checkout!

  8. Thanks Goob! I love free stuff, especially from Amazon. I had no idea we can get so much media for free on our Kindle Apps. I’m going to have to clean up my mac so I can store all the free books on there. I might not read them all, but I’ll take as much as I can haha.

  9. I love to read. Another place for cheap reading material is at local library sales. Of course, you will pay a little but then it is an on-hand book at a good price. It is a good place to pick up cheap reading books for beginning readers and give them as Christmas/birthday gifts.

    • Actually, no! You can download the free Kindle app and read these on your tablet, smartphone, or computers.

      You will need an Amazon Prime account to access the downloads though.

      • Actually, you *don’t* need an Amazon Prime account, just a regular account. In other words, just register with Amazon for free, and you can download any $0.00 book for free. I’ve been doing it for more than a decade, and it hasn’t cost me a single cent for any of them. And I don’t have a Prime account.

  12. goob. i absolutely have. bio’s of founding fathers and of presidents, and 1 on the manhattan project. love getting good books free. thanks a bazillion, GOOB!!

    • megan, i don’t have kindle unlimited and i have found many at zero.. i use tohave it.. hmm.. i would echeck on it.

  13. Unfortunately, these are free if you have Kindle Unlimited, which is not included in Prime. It’s an extra $10/mo.

  14. I just thought I would mention another site that might interest fellow readers. I recently discovered Harlequin Rewards (Sign Up at: https://static.sl.harlequin.com/index.html) and you get enough points for a free eBook from their site just for signing up or you can save your points up to get a free print book.

  16. Thank you for this > I love to read and hate to pay high prices/ Free totally works for me. Thanks again

  21. “Instant Pot Cookbook: Easy To Make And Delicious Instant Pot Recipes For Beginners”

    Someone is going to be surprised.

  23. To Shelli Browning, It is very easy to put your ebooks onto a kindle once you buy one.. I have kindle for pc but bought my kids kindles for Christmas this year and all I had to do was register the kindle with the same email and password as the free kindle app and you connect to wifi and they are all there you just pick the one(s) you want and download.

  26. Glad your enjoying your kindle. I love mine… I got mine this past christmas as a gift. I have over 70 books on it right now. All of them were free, except for two. I wanted to read them and only paid $1.99 for each… Happy Reading

  27. Fab freebie – now if I can figure out how to lug my PC outside so I can read all my free new books! One day I’ll break down and get a Kindle. Till then, Goob, thanks for passing on offers like these and letting us know they are good for PCs, too. Hope I can figure out how to get them transferred to a Kindle when I eventually buy one!

  28. @Bicky!:) I have a color nook as well. you can use it with some of these websites and just use the read online option. You obviously have to be connected with wifi, but it works~

  31. This is a great one to post goob! I love my kindle – got mine for christmas – and with all the free books I hardly ever buy one.

    Also, if you go to ereaderiq.com and sign up for the daily email they will send you a list everyday of the new free books.

  32. My husband’s boss just gave me a Kindle, I must say that I love it so much!! Thanks for this Freebie, it’s a good one!

  33. i have the free app for computer – i just clicked the kindle section, then sorted them by price lowest to highest and went through the thousands and downloaded the ones i liked!

  38. Nice!

    I’m gonna put them on my iPod. 😀

    I’ve read a couple of these classics, 20,00 Leagues and The Picture of Dorian Gray. I love classics, and I’m looking forward to reading Sherlock Holmes, Treasure Island, Frankenstein, Dracula, and some other classics that I should have read by now.

    Hooray! 😀

  39. My son-in-law is sight impaired and he loves to read! The Kindle is keeping him going, so thanks for passing this along.

  40. A passage from the 21st century version of Fahrenheit 451:
    “Are you sure you want to delete all of the items in the Recycle Bin?”
