A year of free reading: a monthly plan

Turn free books into a year-long reading adventure with a theme for every month.

The calendar

September: series openers. October: horror and thrillers. November: memoirs. December: cozy romance and feel-good reads. January: self-improvement. February: love stories. March: science. April: poetry-adjacent short reads. May: travel. June: classics. July: fantasy epics. August: hidden gems.

How to keep it stocked

At the start of each month, pull the theme's picks from the free library and the new arrivals page. Let the expiring soon page tell you what to grab first.

Twelve themes, fifty-two weeks, zero dollars spent — the year writes itself.
