I often share free Kindle books that I find on Facebook and Twitter and had so much positive response that I decided to share them here on WordVessel as well. While I may not be able to do this everyday since it's time-consuming, I will post as often as I can. All the books listed here were free at the time of posting, but these free ebooks change to pay status very quickly. Always check to make sure the books are indeed free before you click to buy. Also, I want to offer readers only the most highly rated books, so all books listed are at least 4 out of 5 stars with at least 5 reviews. Just so you know, I have not read all these books, so I can't testify to their content or spiritual accuracy. I am also a part of the Amazon Associates program, which allows me to earn a small advertising fee from Amazon for advertising these books by linking directly to them. Happy reading!
