Google Play Books, Google’s reading app and digital book store, offers an extensive library of eBooks across all your favorite genres. While a lot of these books come with a cost, there are also plenty of free books if you know where to look. Whether you’re an avid reader or just looking for a few good books on a budget, this guide will show you how to find free books on Google Play Books.
How to Access Google Play Books
Open your web browser and go to the Google Play Books website. If you don’t have an account, you’ll need to sign in or create one to access the full range of features.
How to Find Free Google Play Books
Once you’re on the homepage, scroll down to the “Top Charts” section and click on “Top Free” to filter the selection. Here you can see the most popular books that have no cost for you to download.
While this list is great at finding the most popular free books, this isn’t the best way to find the ideal books you’re looking for. To do this, you’ll want to search. To do so, click the magnifying glass at the top right of your screen. This will open up a search bar. This is where you can now finetune your search to find books in your favorite genres. In this example, I will search for ‘Science Fiction Books.’
After pressing ‘enter’ you’ll be presented with books in your specified genre. To refine this search even more, click on the ‘price’ button at the top of the results and filter by ‘free.’ This will show you a list of free books in your favorite genre and simply press the arrow at the side of the list to scroll for more options.
It’s as simple as that! While the lists presented using the methods above won’t show you every free book on Google Play Books, it will make the process of finding free books a little easier for you.
