Product Description

Updated January 2012!!

Please note this eBook is not USA-specific: in other words, each site mentioned in this Guide allows you to download and enjoy their content on your Kindle no matter which country you may live.

From the author of the Amazon Kindle best-selling blog “Free Kindle Books Plus a Few Other Tips” comes this update to your definitive guide to millions of free books online! Rather than limit yourself to the offerings at Amazon, there are literally thousands upon thousands of books, short stories, and more available to you for no charge which you can transfer directly to your Kindle or other eBook reader, download via the Kindle’s WhisperNet service or email directly to your Kindle.

Sure, you could spend several hours performing the same research, but save yourself the time and frustration as this guide will show you where to look and find thousands of books so you can read to your heart’s content!

Everyone enjoys receiving free stuff – the author included. This guide shows you where you can receive several hundred thousand (actually over a million) free books, blogs, short stories, and other content. Theoretically, you will never have to pay another cent for Kindle reading content again.

This guide also provides a brief overview of how to transfer books to your Kindle, the various file formats that are compatible with the Kindle, and how to download free books from the Internet and transfer to your Kindle.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth $1.99, September 21, 2010

Granted there are many good resources listed in the book, but nothing you couldn't find via Google. Also some of the sites listed had already changed their URL's. OK. This is not the author's fault, but it does reinforce the fact that Google is better than this book. If you hate using a search engine, then this is the book for you, otherwise just search for free ebooks yourself.

I am surprised to see some of the low ratings on this blog!! I have found it to be very helpful and saves me a ton of time. When I purchased my Kindle I was very concerned about spending too much money and the whole one button push and I have a book. I love to read so I made a deal with myself. I will start looking at the free books...starting with the classics. I found this blog and thought I would give it a try. 14 days for free so why not! I have downloaded almost every book recommended, put them into categories and then take a look at them when I have time. Many of them I will never read and I delete them. BUT... I have now read books that I would never have read if I paid for them initially. (I just can't afford it)The books offered are very diverse. Again, some I don't have any interest in reading, but I am sure that others do. To me it is just plain silly that people are complaining that they don't like the books offered. Hello....those are offered by the publishers..not the provider of the blog. And why would you think he has any control over how long it is offered? In any event, I highly recommend it. It has saved me a ton of time and has gotten me into reading books I never would have picked up. Thank you!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Free Kindle Books..for $1.98??, November 29, 2010

Free Kindle Books and How to Find Them.. revised.

Revised or not, you can get the same info from Amazon by doing a search on Amazon..
Search: Kindle Store ; Free
Then Click on "Free Book Collection"

There's a whole page/pages dedicated to free e-books and other sites that are compatible with Kindle. A whole list of them...

And yes, I find that rather ironic.. a book titled Free Kindle Books and How to Find Them and charging for it. LOL

Anyway, save your money.. just do a search. Amazon provides most of the info.
