How to read Kindle books and magazines for free with Prime Reading

If you are a Prime member, I am pretty sure that you would be very pleased with the fact that Amazon just announced Prime Reading. As of today Prime Reading joins the growing list of all-you-can-eat benefits along with unlimited fast, free Prime shipping, unlimited access to Prime Video, Prime Music, Prime Photos, Audible Channels, early access to Lightning Deals and more.

With Prime Reading you can read as much as you want from over a thousand of Kindle books, magazines, comics, articles, Kindle Singles, and more absolutely for free by downloading the Kindle app for iOS and Android or using your own Kindle or Fire tablet.

However, before we go any further, let’s take a close look at this newest benefit of Amazon Prime membership:

 

What do you need?

Prime Reading is currently only available in the US. So, it goes without saying that you’ll need to be a US Prime member to be able to enjoy Prime Reading. Are you not a member yet? Click here to start your 30-day Prime free trial.

 

What does it cost?

Prime Reading is included with Prime membership so, you can enjoy unlimited reading from a rotating selection of books, magazines, comics and more at no additional cost.

 

What device do you need?

You can enjoy Prime Reading on your Kindle devices, and using the free Kindle Reading Apps for your iOS and Android devices, so you can read anytime. Anywhere you like.

For this tutorial, I am using my Kindle Fire HD 6 tablet, which is currently on sale. But of course, you don’t need a Kindle Fire tablet to enjoy Prime Reading (see “What device do you need?”).
