I just got a new Kindle and am trying to find free books to download. Can anyone help me figure out how to do this? I think I will love it, but after being used to free books at the library I hate to pay. Thanks.

Go to amazon, search Kindle Store for free books.

That is how I have done it, but I am not reading much with the two kiddos right now, so I haven't gone through the free books yet, LOL!

Every time I do that I get a list of books to buy that tell me where the free book websites are. I must not be searching correctly.

You can also find an author, get a list of their books, and then sort by price: low to high. Any books they have availble for free will be at the top of the list.

Publishers rotate their free books, and so you might get different free ones depending when you search in the month.

Thanks.

Google free kindle downloads.

The nice thing about amazon is that once you set it up, you can do a one-click puchase that will load the book onto your device {I use the kindle program on my iPhone} the next time you open the device and it has wifi. Makes buying freebies easy and quick. Remember they are digital and you can delete them just as easily if you don't like them in the first 5 to 10 pages.

I googled "free ebooks" and it gave me a list of networks to go to. They also send you updates thru emails to keep you updated. If you wish to discontinue these updates just click on "unsubscribe" at the bottom of email.

I have found that I can search easier logged in to Amazon and sending the books to my Kindle. If you go here ...

You can get to free book collections. I read in the Wall Street Journal that there will be an update to Kindle software by the end of the year that allows e-books to be borrowed from the library! Yippee!

My library that I download audiobooks from also has E-books. Search E-books as some places also call them ebook. I thought about a kindle but since I discovered free audio books I sure get a lot more done. I am one of those that will NOT put a book down till it is finished. Too bad I am not like this with sewing lol

While on your kindle make the following selections :
Menu
Shop in Kindle Store (you may need to turn on your wifi)
Under Featured select Kindle Top Sellers (it will list the top 100 paid books)
Look in the upper right hand corner and see "Kindle Top 100 Free" using the buttons select this option.
TaDa! ;)

Yes, I heard September. I can't wait.

Wow, that sounds like a winner and will do as soon as I can. I knew I'd get an answer here.

Try kindle.com and look for the drop down menu for free books.

Sign up for Pixels of Ink to get free daily books. I check every day about 2. Have downloaded about 130 books so far.
Great site.

Remember to turn on WiFi for shopping for books AND to turn it OFF when done or your battery will run down quickly. Otherwise, your battery charge will last a few weeks. Yes, I learned the hard way :-)

i have the nook and check out book from the libary u might beable to do the same

I was going to suggest this site. I check it daily.

you can get free books for the kindle also-just have to look. If you don't have wifii, it's hard to download. I have a Mac and after an hour with the geek squad -I just said I'll download it at Paneras where they havewifi-I like my Kindle but I still buy some books because they just feel better in my hands. ;-)

our local library belongs to a much larger group (our town is only 8,000) and the network has many free ebooks, just ask at your library.

I had purchased the Nook and returned it because I wasn't impressed with the free books and wasn't willing to buy books. Our former library director goes to the Guttenburg website for free books. These are the classics.

I subscribe to Kindle Nation Daily. They list all new free books on a twice daily basis. There is also a link for bargain books.

I love my kindle! I'm looking forward to the upgrade later this year that will allow us to "borrow" library books.

I LOVE this site, thank you!!!!

You can download the free books to your pc and then put them on your Kindle. Enjoy it!

I go to Barnes and Noble they have a lot of free and some very cheap e-books there

Many libraries have downloadable books now, so you should inquire.

Try these: girlebooks.com; http://www.smashwords.com; free

bookspot.com;1001books.com; diesel-ebooks.com;readprint.com; ccel.org; bookyards.com; worldlibrary.net; feedbooks.com; munseys.com; manybooks.net
(kindle format*azw); gutenberg.org; some of these you need to register, which is free, some you need to select mobi, for it to be readable on the kindle, some you select e-books format. Hope this gets you started, good luck. Happy reading :thumbup: :thumbup:

Do I go to these websites on my Kindle or on my computer?

Free books most every day on the Knob.com. I believe that's the name of the site and I'd send you their email but I didn't receive mine yet today.

They have free deals for Kindle and Nook plus some really inexpensive books. I download from there all the time.

you can do either way

Our local library has downloads for the Kindle. Check with your library.

Kindle doesn't have the software as of yet to do that. Supposedly coming soon.

our Library here has free downloads. I don't know if you can sign up online but the site is:
www.mcpld.org

Wondering if I can use the site KINDLE to download to
my PC and read from the PC?Would I need a special
something on the PC? Also want to listen to talking
books on PC..from downloads. Info appreciated.

You can go to the Amazon site and click on the Kindle tab...then over on the right side of the page click on the free stuff, but this is much better... Here is a link that you need to check every day (or even twice a day). This guy puts free books on this blog from the Amazon site as well as off site that can be downloaded into your Kindle. He has the same information on a blog that you can subscribe to (and pay for) through Amazon by the month, but this is his direct webblog address:

I've probably gotten over $500 worth of books free with the help of his site since January. LOVE my Kindle!

You can download e-books from the public library.

You can just log onto your internet browser, then go to this website, which lists the top 100 free books and the top 100 best sellers.
