Below you’ll find a list of ebooks from the Kindle store that are temporarily free. There are tons of free Kindle ebooks available once again so I decided to hand-pick some of the better ones. These all have 4 stars and up.

Like always, these ebooks are free for a limited time and are likely free for US residents only. Kindle ebooks are compatible with all Kindle devices and Kindle apps for Android, iPad, iPhone, Blackberry, PC, Mac, Windows Phone 7, and the Kindle Cloud Reader.

I haven’t done a free ebooks post for a long time, so let’s get them back up and going again with some free Kindle eBooks since we’ve had two new Kindles launch this past week. The Kindle Fire is getting all the news, but the Kindle Touch deserves some credit too.

These ebooks are free for a limited time only. Kindle ebooks are compatible with all Kindle devices and Kindle apps for Android, iPad, iPhone, Blackberry, PC, Mac, and Windows Phone 7. Oh, and the Kindle Cloud Reader too (almost forgot about that one).

It turns out the rumor about Amazon introducing Prime eBooks was true. Amazon has launched a Kindle Owners’ Lending Library for U.S. Amazon Prime members that allows Kindle owners to borrow ebooks for free, up to one ebook per month per account.

The selection is surprisingly plentiful. There are already over 5,000 Kindle ebooks to choose from across various subjects and genres, including more than 100 current and former New York Times Bestsellers. It shouldn’t be too hard to find one interesting ebook to read each month.

Here’s a list of public libraries that offer library cards to non-residents so that you can barrow library ebooks for a Kindle, Nook, Sony Reader, or a multitude of other devices even if your local library doesn’t have ebooks or if it is lacking in selection and availability.

This list comes from the How To Get Free eBooks From Libraries Using Overdrive page. I updated the section about getting library cards for non-residents and added some more libraries to the list and thought it deserved its own post.

Amazon has some more free Vook books available for this Sunday morning, lots of how to guides and brief history guides. These books are free for a limited time only so make sure to check the price before clicking the buy button.

The Vook books that say “Enhanced Version” or “Video” in the title have audio and video content that will only work on Kindle iOS apps for iPads, iPhones, and iPod touches.

It looks like Amazon has a bunch of free Vook books again, mostly how to guides and tutorials on various subjects. There are even guides for video games like Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja. I’m not sure how long these will stay free so make sure to check the price before clicking the buy button.

Note that some of these free Vook books have audio and video that will only work on iDevices running the Kindle app. Why Android and other Kindle apps aren’t included is anyone’s guess.

If you have young children and a Nook Color, you might want to download these two free interactive kids’ books listed below that Barnes and Noble recently added to the Nook Color’s app store.

These interactive kids books are from Touchybooks and include colorful illustrations, touchable animations on each page, music, and narration. B&N sells several of these types of interactive apps from Touchybooks, most cost $1-$2, but these two are free.

Barnes and Noble has twenty of their classic ebooks available for free that normally cost $3.99 each (these aren’t run-of-the-mill public domain ebooks; these are nicely formatted and include introductions, endnotes, footnotes, notes about the author, etc). In fact all of them are double-listed and are still selling for $3.99 on other pages.

It appears that B&N has switched these particular titles from their original PDB format into EPUB so they will work with B&N’s newer ebook readers that no longer support B&N’s old format. Unfortunately they still have DRM so they will only work with Nook devices and Nook apps, not other EPUB ebook readers (I checked since it turns out that B&N’s newspaper and magazines don’t have DRM).
