SAVE $35.97: Now through July 17, Amazon Prime members can sign up for a free 3-month subscription to Kindle Unlimited, which typically costs $11.99 per month. That's a total savings of $35.97.


We're now halfway through 2024, and if your New Year's resolution was to dive into reading, but you haven't quite fulfilled that commitment, there's still time. We still have more than 20 full weeks left in the year, which means today is a great time to start turning pages. If your preferred reading method is e-books or audiobooks, there's a great deal in store for you today for the total price of F-R-E-E.

Through July 17, Amazon Prime members can sign up for a free 3-month subscription to Kindle Unlimited as a Prime Day deal. The service typically costs $11.99 per month, which means you'll be saving a total of $35.97 over the three-month time frame. Just remember to cancel your subscription before the three months are up to avoid being charged.

Kindle Unlimited is an e-book reader's delight. It gives you unrestricted access to over 4 million digital books, from classics to bestsellers. If you're in the mood for something longer, check out the selection of popular book series, which is just as good as finding a new show to binge. Plus, you'll no longer have to wait weeks for the book to become available from the library.

If you'd rather listen to books instead of read on a device, Kindle Unlimited also has you covered. The catalog includes thousands of audiobooks to choose from, which have the power to turn any road trip from a slog to a joy. Kindle Unlimited also includes magazine subscriptions, with titles like People Magazine, Travel + Leisure, and Runner's World.

To grab this deal, you'll need to be an Amazon Prime member, which costs $14.99 per month or $139 annually.

Plus, you'll get access to Amazon's two-day shipping. And if you don't already have an e-reader, check out our shopping guide for our favorite Kindles.

If your reading goals aren't getting met and you're ready to change that this summer, sign up for free access to Kindle Unlimited for three months. Then you'll have some great motivation to turn some pages.
