Amazon Prime Members Can Get Two Free Ebooks in December.
Throughout 2025, you can get thousands of free ebooks if you know where and when to look. Amazon is offering readers free Kindle ebooks all year long, with new opportunities added every month. In December, Prime members can get two free Kindle ebooks through the Amazon First Reads program, one of which is this month’s bonus short book.
What is Amazon’s First Reads?
Amazon First Reads is a program for Prime members that offers early access to new ebooks across a variety of genres, selected by First Reads editors (one of the many benefits of Prime membership ). Prime members can download one free ebook each month from a rotating selection (though some months this number increases to two, usually with a free short novel), while non-members receive them at a reduced price. These ebooks can be read on any compatible Kindle device or through the free Kindle app.
How to Get Free Amazon Kindle Ebooks in December
Visit the First Reads landing page to see the full list of ebooks available this month. Once you find the book you’re interested in, click the “Buy Now” button on the First Reads landing page. Make sure you’re not redirected to the Kindle or Amazon mobile app, as you won’t see the free book option there. Instead, use your phone or computer’s web browser.
Be sure not to click the “Pre-order for…” button, as this will require payment. Instead, click the “Read for free” or “Buy now in one click” button under the “First Reads” banner on the book’s Amazon page (don’t worry, you won’t be charged). The ebook will be sent directly to the Kindle linked to your Amazon account.
You can see what it should look like in the screenshot below.
You’ll know you’ve done everything right when you see the message “Thank you, [your name]!” in your order summary, indicating that the ebook is automatically delivered to your Kindle Cloud Reader.
