How to borrow books from friends on Kindle
If you own a Kindle or Fire tablet, or the Kindle app, you can loan your favorite books to friends and family for up to 14 days—all you need is their email address. Kindle books that you borrow from a friend or family member appear in your Kindle library with a lending period of 14 days. You can have one book lent to you at a time. If you try to borrow another book before returning the first one, the first book will be automatically returned to the lender.

If you decide that you don’t want to keep a book you’ve borrowed, you can return it early. To do so:
-Go to Shelf > Loans.
-Tap the book you’d like to return.

-Select Yes to confirm and return the book.
How to keep track of books you’ve borrowed on Kindle
If you’re anything like me, you love to read. But buying all the books you want can get pretty expensive, especially if you’re trying to stick to a budget. Luckily, there are ways to borrow books without spending a dime. Here’s how to keep track of books you’ve borrowed on Kindle so you can always have something new to read without breaking the bank.
When you borrow a book from the Kindle Store, it’ll appear in your “My Library” section on Amazon. You can also find it by going to “Manage Your Content and Devices” and selecting “Content.” From there, just click on the “Books” tab and you should see all the books you’ve borrowed along with their due dates.
You can return a book early by going to your “My Library” page on Amazon and selecting the book you want to return. Or, if you’re finished reading it and don’t want to keep it any longer, just select “Actions” and then “Delete.” The book will be removed from your device and returned automatically.
If you’re like me and love to read, borrowing books from the Kindle Store is a great way to save money. And now that you know how to keep track of them, it’s easy to make sure you always have something new (and free!) to read.
How to get the most out of borrowing books on Kindle
If you’re an Amazon Prime member, you can borrow Kindle books for free from the Kindle Owners’ Lending Library. With this program, you can choose from over 800,000 titles to borrow and read on any device with the Kindle app.
To get started, just go to the Kindle Store on your Amazon device or Amazon.com and look for the Prime logo next to eligible titles. Then, just click “borrow for free” to start reading.
You can have up to 10 borrowed titles at a time, and there are no due dates for returning books. When you’re done reading a book, just go to your “Manage Your Content and Devices” page on Amazon and select the “Return this book” link next to the title.
If you’re not an Amazon Prime member yet, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial at Amazon.com/prime. After your trial ends, Prime membership costs $99 per year or $10.99 per month
How to avoid problems when borrowing books on Kindle
When you borrow a book on Kindle, you have a limited time to read it before it expires. Borrowed books will automatically expire at the end of their lending periods. You can check how much time you have left by going to the Manage Your Content and Devices page on Amazon. If you try to open a borrowed book after it has expired, you’ll be prompted to renew the book or buy it.
If you’re happy with the book and want to keep it forever, we recommend buying it instead of renewing the loan. This is because Kindle books can be expensive, and renewing loans can get expensive if you keep doing it.

Tips for borrowing books on Kindle
If you’re an avid reader, you know that one of the best things about Kindle is that you can borrow books from library without ever having to leave your house. But what if you’ve never done it before? Here are some tips to get you started.
First, make sure that your local library supports borrowing Kindle books. You can do this by checking the website or contacting the library directly.
Once you’ve verified that your library does support borrowing Kindle books, the next step is to find out which books are available. You can usually do this by searching the library’s website or catalog.
Once you’ve found a book that you’re interested in, the next step is to actually borrow it. This will usually involve logging into your account on the library’s website and then clicking on the ‘borrow’ button for the book.
