Top Kindle Book Deals
Here is a list of Amazon’s Kindle ebook discount programs:
Main Kindle deals page. This page aggregates all current Kindle deals across books, magazines and newspapers onto one webpage. Note that it’s a bit messy and involves lots of scrolling to find what you want.
Kindle daily deals (also known as “today’s deals”) features a selection books anywhere from 10 to 100 books which are marked down either for one-day only or for an unspecified limited time.
Kindle monthly deals The monthly deal selection features only top-rated Kindle books (i.e. 4.5 star rating, with typically with 1000’s of ratings). Deals end on the last day of each month, and a new selection of book is added on the first day of each month. Books are discounted up to 80% off regular price. This selection tends to feature high-quality reads.
Kindle exclusive deals offers books that are only available on Kindle (i.e. not available on Apple books, Nook or Kobo) at prices typically ranging from $0.99 to $1.99. These books are typically self-published or published by Amazon Publishing.
Kindle books under $2 This sale offers a selection of 50 Kindle books each under $2. The discount lasts through last day of each month. One the first day of each month a new selection is presented.
Free Kindle books Amazon typically has about 70,000 free books on Kindle at any given time. These are a mix of books that are no longer under copyright (public domain), perma-free books (where an author or publisher has elected to set the price as free for the foreseeable future), as well as books that are free for 1-5 days (many authors do this in hope of getting book reviews and new fans). Amazon makes it somewhat hard to search or browse for free Kindle books. The provided link buckets out the free Amazon books by genre.
Top 100 free books The list contains only books that are currently free. It is updated hourly and it’s ordered by number of downloads. So the #1 book on the list is the free Kindle book that had the most downloads in the past hour.
Apart from the monthly deals, the selection of books in the links above tend to change daily, so it’s worth book marking these and checking back frequently.
