Where to Find Free Books for Your Kindle (100% Legal Sources)

Reading an ebook on a device

Short answer: you can fill your Kindle with free books completely legally, from Amazon's own free listings, Project Gutenberg's public-domain classics, and your public library through Libby. No piracy needed. Here is where to find them and how to get any ebook onto your Kindle.

Amazon's own free Kindle books

Amazon constantly lists free Kindle books, classics, promos, and indie authors giving titles away. Browse the Kindle store sorted by price low-to-high, or check the "Top Free" charts. Grab them and they stay in your library forever. Kindle Unlimited and Prime Reading also include rotating free reads if you subscribe.

Project Gutenberg: 70,000+ free classics

Project Gutenberg offers tens of thousands of public-domain books (their copyright has expired) as free, legal downloads in Kindle-compatible formats. Every classic you can think of is there.

Your public library, free via Libby

This is the one people forget. With a free library card, Libby lets you borrow ebooks, including current bestsellers, and read them on Kindle in many regions, at no cost. It is the single best source for new, popular books legally free.

Other legal free sources

  • Standard Ebooks, beautifully formatted public-domain titles.
  • Open Library (Internet Archive), borrow scanned books.
  • ManyBooks and similar sites for free indie and classic titles.

How to send any ebook to your Kindle

  1. Find your Send-to-Kindle email address in your Amazon account settings.
  2. Email the ebook file (EPUB or PDF) to that address; Amazon converts and delivers it to your Kindle.
  3. Or use the free Send to Kindle app / browser extension to push files directly.

The non-obvious tip: use your library before you buy

Before purchasing a new release, check Libby, huge numbers of current bestsellers are available to borrow free with a library card, often the same day. Many avid readers rarely pay for books at all by combining Libby holds with Gutenberg classics. It is all legal and supports libraries.
