If you're an Amazon Prime member, you likely already know it comes with plenty of perks: same-day shipping, tons of streaming content, and a Grubhub+ discounted subscription. But you might not be aware of one of the other great options you can take advantage of: Amazon First Reads. This program lets you snag a free book every month to add to your Kindle library. October is the perfect month to give it a try, as the spookiest time of the year now nets you two books instead of one.

As of Oct. 1, choose two books from the Amazon First Reads program. There are 10 different options, including romantic thriller The Fix by Mia Sheridan and sci-fi short story 3 Days, 9 Months, 27 Years by John Scalzi. There's a little something for everyone, no matter what you're into.

Normally, you only get one book each month, but you can select two of these options. All you have to do is check out the Amazon First Reads home page and check out what's on offer. Choose the books you want to read, and find the option "Read now for free." When you confirm the books you're interested in, this button will automatically add them to your Kindle library.

Then make sure to keep coming back each month, because there's a new set of books on rotation each time, typically all pulled from a pool of new or upcoming books that are exclusive to Amazon. Plus, if you miss a set of First Reads, you can usually go back and find them by way of Kindle Unlimited if you're a member and catch up as part of your membership.

Fall is a great time to get more reading in, so make sure you take advantage of this deal and check out all the new free picks for October.
