Stuff Your Kindle Day: How to get free mystery, thriller, and suspense books on Oct. 22

FREE BOOKS: The latest Stuff Your Kindle Day takes place on Oct 22. Stuff Your Kindle: Crime Edition is offering free mystery, thriller, and suspense books for e-readers.

The Stuff Your Kindle Day schedule has become somewhat stressful at times this year. And then we'll get absolutely nothing for weeks or months. Whoever coordinates everything seems to prefer to drop these events in waves. And folks, an absolutely giant wave is on the horizon.

We're entering into the busiest Stuff Your Kindle Day period of the year, with at least five events taking place before the end of October. That's a lot of free books, which isn't a bad thing. The problem will be staying on top of everything — this is where we can help you out.

This packed period of activity kicks off with Stuff Your Kindle: Crime Edition, going live on Oct. 22. This event is offering free mystery, thriller, and suspense reads for one day only. And better yet, the books that you download are yours to keep forever.

Looking to make the most of the latest Stuff Your Kindle Day? We've lined up everything you need to know about this popular event.

Stuff Your Kindle: Crime Edition takes place on Oct. 22. A lot of recent Stuff Your Kindle Days have stretched out over a few days, providing participants with the opportunity to take their time and consider all options. This latest event only lasts through the day, so you'll need to act fast to stock up on everything you want to read. Given how many events are stacking up on the schedule over the next week or so, we're OK with this limited-time event. We need time to recover before the next launch.

Who can take part in Stuff Your Kindle Day?

The great thing about Stuff Your Kindle Day (besides all the free books) is that anyone can participate. Kindle, Kobo, and Nook readers can download these books for free. You can even download these books on your preferred app and read them directly from your phone.
