Amazon is not the only one giving away a free e-book every month (for Prime members). Samsung does that too and their freebies are not universal either. Only select Samsung devices are eligible for this promotion and only if you download the Kindle app from Samsung’s own app store ~ whatever name they call it this week 🙂

When you download the app, there is a section on the left hand side menus that says Samsung Book Deals. When you click on that, you will see the four free monthly options. For July 2016, these are ebooks:

Or if you prefer the options in text, here they are:

• “Atlas” by Isaac Hooke
• “Just one thing” by Holly Jacobs
• “Flying Blind” by Max Allan Collins
• “600 Hours of Edward” by Craig Lancaster

You can pick one of the four for FREE. If your device is eligible, you will see a price of $0 on the ebooks. If you don’t see $0, it means your device is not eligible. If you buy it with anything other than $0, you will be changed! (you can easily reverse it by going to amazon.com/myk, but it’s wasted effort if you don’t see $0).

All these ebooks are part of Kindle Unlimited, so they have enough reviews out there to help you device whether to get them or not.

If you have an eligible Samsung device (not all of them are qualifying for this promotion) AND if you have also installed the Kindle app from Samsung’s own app store, then you can get a free e-book from a choice of four options every month. These previously released ebooks are also part of the Kindle Unlimited subscription (KU), so if you have that, and your Samsung device is not eligible, you can read them through KU.

The offers run anew in each calendar month, but as usual, don’t wait until the very last minute to get them as time zone differences and IT issues may cause you to miss them. This particular round is good until June 30, 2016.

If you have an eligible Samsung device, and you have installed the Kindle app from the official Samsung App store ~ whatever its name is these days 🙂 ~ and you are logged on to it with your Amazon account, you can receive one FREE e-book for May 2016 from a choice of four ebooks.

All four of these ebooks (and previous selections) are part of Kindle Unlimited, so they typically have plenty of customer reviews to help you decide whether to get them or not. You have until 5/31/16 to make a choice.

You can see the May 2016 options in the screenshot below:

TIP: the price has to be $0.00, otherwise you will be charged!

If you have an eligible Samsung device (phone or tablet), you may be able to get a free Kindle e-book every month from a choice of four. To do that, you must download the Kindle app from the Samsung app store – whatever its name is this time 🙂 This special version has the Samsung Book Deals “baked” in the app, but that’s not all. The app is also S-Pen optimized, so for example, you can use the S-Pen to quickly highlight text or change pages while reading.
