Book Blast Weekend

Once a month, indie authors make their books free for a weekend. You get one page to browse, grab, and find your next read.

Never miss a Blast

Join the reader list and we'll email you before each event, with a link to the page where the free books live. No spam, and you can unsubscribe any time.

We only use your email to send event reminders. Emails are sent through Mailchimp.

Three simple steps, and there's nothing to buy.

  1. Join the list

    Sign up above so you get a reminder when the next event starts.

  2. Browse on event days

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. Every book listed is offered free by its author for the event days. Prices are set by the authors and by Amazon and can change, so always check that the price shows $0.00 before you download.

Do I need a Kindle?

No. You can read on any Kindle device or with the free Kindle app on your phone, tablet, or computer.

What if a book isn't free when I tap it?

Sometimes a promotion ends early or hasn't started in your country yet. Skip that one and try another, since there will be plenty more on the page.

How do you choose the books?

Authors enter their own books and choose a category. We check that entries follow the rules, but we don't edit or endorse the books, so read the descriptions and content notes before you download.

What do you do with my email?

We only use it to send event reminders. Every message has an unsubscribe link.

I'm an author. How much does it cost?

Nothing. The only requirement is that you tell your own readers about the event.
