For every Kindle owners, when it comes to free books, the first choice will definitely be the Amazon Online Store. Please, login to the site and just type “free books”. Enough! You are flooded with all types of free books. The screen will display plenty of options to ‘grab your pick’. The screen page is self-explanatory and hence I need not elaborate on it. You try and convince yourself. In the search box, you can even type “0.00” (zero point zero zero). The result is same as stated above that you get a list of many free books. Some publishers give you samples of their books and all samples are needless to say absolutely free.

I give below a list of some major companies who give you free books. The URL of each company is furnished along with. Just enter the URL in the address book and reach the home page of the site.
