Well, there are just a few more hours left in February so I thought I would take a look and look at the relative number – and categories – of the books I have told you about during the month. I usually tell you of about 100 or so (plus or minus) free books each month, and if it hadn’t been a short month (in terms of number of days) we probably would have made it; this month, I told you about 88 free Kindle books.
I thought this was also rare: each book came from the Amazon website vs. my normal of telling you about specific books in the Kindle format available from third-parties: I promise I will do a better job of it in March!
In case you missed some during the month of February, many of them are still free and you can always check out February’s prior posts by clicking here.
Here are the categories for this month’s past offerings:
| Category | Total | Percentage | ||
| Business | 20 | 22.7% | ||
| Science Fiction | 12 | 13.6% | ||
| Self-Improvement | 11 | 12.5% | ||
| Romance | 9 | 10.2% | ||
| Mystery | 7 | 8.0% | ||
| Religious Fiction | 6 | 6.8% | ||
| Biography | 4 | 4.5% | ||
| Children / Young Adult | 4 | 4.5% | ||
| Religion | 3 | 3.4% | ||
| Cooking | 2 | 2.3% | ||
| Documentary | 2 | 2.3% | ||
| Trivia | 2 | 2.3% | ||
| Fantasy | 1 | 1.1% | ||
| Government | 1 | 1.1% | ||
| Historical Fiction | 1 | 1.1% | ||
| Horror | 1 | 1.1% | ||
| Humor | 1 | 1.1% | ||
| Science | 1 | 1.1% | ||

I hope you’re having a great week!

Thanks, Michael! I’ve downloaded several books this month, thanks to your diligent efforts.
Michael,
I read your post last week regarding the flak you get no matter how valuable your services have been. I find that everything you do has been great. I guess in this world there will always be those who sit back and critisize most anything…and without any validity behine their complaint.
I for one want to thank you for all the information you bring to light regarding the Kindle and all the free books you let us know about. Keep the faith Michael…and keep up the great work!! Thanks again.
Dave
Dave-
Thanks, I appreciate it!

Since purchasing my Kindle in December last year, I have read more books than the previous two years. Most of the books were downloaded from your blog. i am catching up on my “should have read it in school” list and getting ahead too.
Thanks for your diligent efforts. Never mind the bad-mouthers, they have yet to let their reading expand their minds beyond their narrow focus on themselves. Thanks again, Don.
