Signing up to Kindle Unlimited, which has a 30-day free trial and then renews at £7.99 a month, expands the selection to more than a million books, plus audiobooks and magazine subscriptions (including Good Housekeeping!). You can download up to 10 and there are no return dates, but once you hit that limit you’ll need to return some from the Manage my Content and Devices page on your Kindle account before you can download any more. If you’re an Amazon Prime subscriber, which costs £7.99 a month, you can also download free ebooks from a selection of more than 1000 charged-for titles as part of the Prime Reading plan. On our Kindle, we searched for ‘free’ and tapped ‘Free Kindle Books’ in the list of results. There are so many ways to find free books on Amazon’s official ebook store. The process differs depending on which device you have, and which store you’re buying from – and so do the books and offers open to you. The update only applies to new ebooks.The best place to start your search is your e-reader’s integrated bookstore. If you already own ebooks in either format on your Kindle, you can still access them. Amazon acquired the company Mobipocket in 2005, and subsequently rebranded MOBI to AZW. For Kindle owners who’ve had to grapple with manually converting their ebook library to a more Amazon-friendly format with an app like Calibre, this will be a welcome change.īut another upcoming change is that Kindle will finally lose the ability to support MOBI, an older French file format that was Amazon’s proprietary ebook format for a while. But up until now, Kindle devices couldn’t read the ePub format. Amazon’s Kindle Store is a major ebook seller and ePub is the most widely-used ebook format.
It’s a change that - at first glance - seems rather minor, but in truth solves a lingering problem in the ebook industry. The update is scheduled to occur in late 2022. First spotted by Good E-Reader, Amazon updated its Kindle section with the news that the Send to Kindle function will convert ePub files to a format that can be opened on the e-reader. It only took about 15 years, but Amazon’s Kindle will finally support the ePub format.
