If you’re a Prime member, you should know that you’ll have a good amount of benefits to take advantage of when you get the chance.

Two of these benefits include Amazon Prime Reading and Amazon First Reads.

You can get free Kindle books from each of them by being a member.

GETTING A READING FIRST

Amazon Prime Reading is a service for Prime members that offers free access to a variety of select ebooks, magazines, and audiobooks.

The available selection includes literary classics, children’s books, Kindle singles and exclusive Amazon e-books.

While Prime Reading features some recent and popular fiction and nonfiction titles, those looking for the latest releases may find a Kindle Unlimited subscription more suitable.

Additionally, Prime Reading offers more than 500 popular comics and magazines.

Prime Reading is an Amazon Prime benefit available to all members.

Access Prime readingjust sign up for a Prime membership and use the service on your Kindle or through the Kindle app.

IN THE FIRST READINGS OF THE AMAZON

Amazon Prime Reading isn’t the only book benefit a subscription offers.

First Reads is a Prime benefit that offers one free Kindle book per month.

Amazon sends an email every month with a list of eligible titles, featuring a variety of genres and authors.

Often, these titles become available on Kindle Unlimited after the first reading period, making it convenient to read more than one.

Typically, the selection includes advanced copies, adding to the excitement of reading the books before their official release.

No actual sign-up is required; you just need to have an Amazon Prime account to access readings on website.

Prime time! Don’t miss the advantages

Don’t waste these prime-ium benefits, he says Sean KeachHead of Technology and Science at The Sun…

If you’re an Amazon Prime member, you’re probably paying $14.99 or £8.99 every month.

And if you only use it for faster deliveries, you’re ignoring a lot of money-saving benefits.

You’re already paying for Prime, so you better get your money’s worth.

First, you can try Amazon Photoswhich is extremely useful if you are a serial snapper.

It gives you access to unlimited full-resolution photo storage, as well as 5GB for videos.

The second is Prime readingwhich offers “a rotating collection of over 3,000 digital books, audiobooks, magazines, comics, and more.”

It’s perfect for avid readers and is completely free with your regular Prime membership.

It’s great to combine with another benefit called Amazon First Reads.

This gives you early access to a new book for free every month.

The third is for gamers and is appropriately named Prime Games.

You will receive free games and in-game content every month on a rotating basis.

And if you’re a fan of Twitch, you’ll even receive a free subscription to the channel to use every month.

Plus, you’ll be able to play some free games using Amazon’s Luna cloud gaming service.

Audiophiles will want to check it out Amazon Musicwhich lets you listen to over 100 million ad-free songs, plus thousands of popular playlists and podcasts.

And here’s a bonus if you’re in the US: Grubhub+ free.

It’s one of the best perks because it offers an annual subscription that would normally cost $9.99 per month.

You’ll get unlimited $0 delivery fees on any order over $12 with your subscription, but it will end if you cancel Prime.
