Default A Kindle Question

I hope this question is ok for me to ask....I just bought the Kiindle Touch and I was wondering if there are any free site to download books? I'm not trying to cheat, I just thought if there was such a site, I'd love to find it. I have searched for 4 days and I can't figure out any. I'm really only interested in 2 authors....Debbie Macomber and Jennifer Chiaverini books, that's all I read these days. If anybody can help me, I will be so grateful. Thanks so much.....Wendy

There are lots of free books out there...on Amazon's own site, you can find free Kindle books. Usually they're just free for a short time and then they revert to being paid downloads. However, I do not think you'll ever find free books by Macomber or Chiaverini-they are both so popular that there's no need to offer free books in order to entice new readers.

Have you reguistered your Kindle? When you do you will get lots of information. Go to Amazon.com, Search-Kindle books, they do have some free and low priced books, Happy hunting, hope this helps

I use Pixel of Ink too. All the free Kindle books are listed there several times a day. Usuallly most are free just for a few hours but there are many available everyday for free. I seldom buy books for my Kindle. You probably got a free month of Amazon Prime when you bought the Kindle and you can borrow books from Amazon Lending Library using your Prime account. You have to register your Kindle using any credit/gift card that has an exp. date to be able to download books and apps for free.

I have a KF and I just go to books, type in free and get all kinds of books. I also get books from the public library, they had a couple of classes on how to download them onto the kindles. I can get them for 21 days which is more than enough for me to read a book. I have had mine since Christmas and have read about 10 books so far.

You can also google "free books for kindle" and it will give you a list. Enjoy them while they are free.

I get an e-mail every day from ereaderiq.com listing all the free books available for Kindle. Not sure how long they stay free. I've had the Kindle almost a year and haven't bought a book yet - except one by accident. You can sign up for the e-mail and choose what kind of books you are interested in.
