How to get free Amazon Ebooks?

Question

Hello to you all,

I have purchased a new kindle.. Amazing device.
Searched Amazon store for a while and found a bit of free book out there (usually fiction and story books)

I bought my kindle in order to read business books /education because I don't want to move around with heavy book.

Books like :

Real estate
Franchise owning
The Franchise MBA: Mastering the 4 Essential Steps to Owning a Franchise
and so on...(books that teaches you.. Real things)

Usually these books cost on Amazon store about 9-18$ each ebook.

I am wondering how people read on kindle.. Do they pay for every book, it's insane - would be thousands of dollars..

How can I download these books for free? Is it possible? I know that everything has a break/breach /hack/root.

You tell me that Amazon book store doesn't have a hack?

I am sorry, but I am really new to the ebook world, so excuse me.

Google books.. How can I read there?is It free? The only thing I can do there is rate /ad to wish list the book.

I read also that Amazon has the right to remove a book you paid for and downloaded on your kindle.. (here comes the DEDRM.. Or whatsoever..)

Tried googling some of the ebooks but can't find pdf's or any file that can be downloaded.

For all kindle fans.. Help me please.

I have Amazon Kindle 8 released year 2016.


Best regards,
Shady Abs.

1. There are thousands of free ebooks on Amazon - just search for what you want and order by price low to high. You do need to have a personal credit or debit card in your account settings even to "buy" free Kindle ebooks.



2. Visit http://www.overdrive.com/ and see if any of your local libraries provide ebooks for Kindle through Overdrive (different ebooks may be offered for Kindle than for Overdrive's own Android/iOS app). If your library does, then you need a valid library card w/ PIN from that library plus and Adobe ID and an Overdrive account. Then you will be able to queue to borrow Kindle ebooks which will be delivered and returned via Amazon's "Manage Your Content & Devices" page.



3. For old classics that are free, see http://www.gutenberg.org/ but you can usually find free versions of the same ebooks on Amazon.

Answer 2

I hope you DO know that your local library carries ebooks now, right? Ours in Milwaukee has over 30,000 titles we can take out.

Perhaps you should've asked these questions before you bought a Kindle...



Normally you pay for ebooks, the same as paper books. Sometimes the ebook costs more than the paperback. (Blame greedy and shortsighted publishers.)



Project Gutenberg has free copies of books that are in the public domain (old enough that the copyright has expired), but they probably don't have much of the material you're interested in.



Amazon has a subscription programme called Kindle Unlimited, where you pay a fixed amount per month and read as many books as you like, but not every ebook is available in this. Some libraries lend ebooks.



I write books that are for sale on Amazon, so I'm not going to tell you how to read someone else's books without paying for them (directly by purchase or subscription, or indirectly through the taxes that fund your library).
