I’ve found some free Kindle novels this weekend of October 4, 2024 on Amazon. Yay!
Hey friends. Most of my reading tastes tend to run cozy mysteries, mysteries, and thrillers. If that’s not your thing … sorry:(
Free Kindle books are becoming tougher to come by! Well, not always, just the ones that I’ve already read and recommend. Many authors offer the first book in a series for free to generate reader interest to buy more novels in the series. Works for me! As the writers get more popular and make more sales, they take down the freebies. They might make the first in the series 99¢ or they might have a freebie when a new book is launched. Hopefully you grabbed some of my favorites in previous posts when they were still free!
You don’t need a Kindle to read books for free. For years I did most of my eBook reading on my iPad where I downloaded the Kindle app – free! You can download the Kindle app onto your tablet, Smartphone, or your computer so you too can read for free. Amazon will help you find your way. Under the buy now option, Amazon has a little banner that says “Read on any device.” Click it and follow the instructions on where you’d like to read books.
PRICE CHECK!!!
Always double check the price before hitting the “buy now” button on Amazon. Some of these novels migrate to their regular price without warning! Right now these kindle novels are free during the weekend of October 4, 2024.
Amazon changed the coding and bloggers can no longer show a “live” view of the book and its current price which is why you have to click through. And be disappointed if the book is no longer free. 😢

Jasmine Webb
I love reading cozy mysteries that take place in destinations that I like travelling to, which usually means beaches and palm trees! Jasmine Webb has three cozy mystery series on the go, but this weekend’s freebie is the Charlotte Gibson Mysteries. Known to all as Charlie, she has fled the mob and landed in Maui where she works in an ice cream shop. Aloha Alibi is the first in the series. After a prominent businessman is murdered, the company offers a $100,000 reward. Charlie can sure use the money so she’s all in.
Cindy Sample
And we’re in for a treat with a free box set – the Laurel McKay Humorous Cozy Mysteries Box Set (Books 1-3). I have never seen this box offered for free before so get it while you can! Laurel is a recently divorced single mother of two who works in a bank. She tries out a matchmaking service and the fun begins! This series takes place in Northern California and I’ve read them all. Obviously one of my favorite authors because I usually buy the books as soon as they’re released instead of waiting for a deal!
Sally Berneathy
If you love chocolate as much as I do, you’ll love this delicious novel! Lindsay is making a break from her ex-husband and opens a chocolate bakery. A stalker, poisoned chocolate, a quirky neighbor, and a dead man make this cozy mystery a lot of fun.
Mia Gold
I’ve recently discovered author Mia Gold because Knockout – A Holly Hands Mystery is free on Amazon Kindle. Holly is a rough around the edges wrestler who is bribed to take a fall – except she didn’t get paid for throwing the fight. She’s banned from competing and is hired by a former classmate to repo a luxury car. Things don’t go quite as planned. An enjoyable read as we join Holly in her quest to make money to pay for her daughter’s expensive medical procedures.
Again, lucky us readers, this is not the only Mia Gold novel on for free! There are two other series this author writes and the first book in each is also free.
Let’s start with On The Rocks (A Ruby Steele Mystery). Ruby is a former wrestler (anyone seeing a theme here?) who is hiding in the Bahamas working as a bartender. She finds a dead man in the bar’s dumpster, and unfortunately for her she becomes the cops number one suspect. The widow doesn’t believe it for a minute and hires Ruby to find the killer, even though she has no detective training.
Two down and one to go!
I’m currently reading Fatal Choice, book 1 in the Sydney Best Suspense series. As far as I can tell Sydney has never been a pro wrestler! She works for the government in a secret service type job and three high level government employees have been murdered within 24 hours. What is going on?
Cheryl Bradshaw
I just spotted Little Last Words free on Amazon Kindle and downloaded it, so I can’t give you a run down. It’s book 7 in the Georgiana Germaine series, and I have read the previous six, and have just been patiently waiting for a deal on Book 7. I also own Book 8 in the series, sitting in the sidelines. Is reading them in order an OCD thing? Georgiana is a former police detective who now works as a private detective, solving mysteries her former department is unable to crack.
She’s one of my favorite writers with her fast moving, well crafted mysteries and I’ve read and recommended books in her other series too whenever I spot a freebie promotion.
Toby Neal
If you love mysteries that take place in Hawaii, don’t miss Wired Rogue, book 2 in the Paradise Crime Thrillers series. Sophie leaves her job with the FBI to freelance solving crimes.
Amy Vansant
The Pineapple Port Mysteries used to be one of my favorite series, but it’s grown kind of tame for me. I’ve read about the first 12 novels in the series. It’s about a year since I’ve seen Pineapple Lies offered for free so grab it while you can if you’re new to this series. Charlotte has lived in the retirement community of Pineapple Port in Florida since she was a child and her grandmother took her in. After grandma died, the residents became her caregivers. When she finds a body buried in her back yard, Charlotte enlists the help of the quirky residents of Pineapple Port to solve this mystery. There must be a new book in the series just released, which usually has this author putting the first in the series on deal to attract new readers. Get it while the price is right!
