What Is the Free Daily Books Email from InfoBooks?
Updated
InfoBooks runs a free daily email that delivers two book recommendations per day — one fiction and one non-fiction — to your inbox. It's aimed at readers who want a steady supply of material without browsing the site themselves. Subscribing requires only an email address, and the site states there is no registration and no fee for its books. You can unsubscribe with one click at any time.
How the daily email works
The subscription is a single-field signup: you enter your email address and confirm. After that, the stated cadence is:
- One email per day
- Two books per email — one fiction, one non-fiction
- Unsubscribe in one click, at any time
The site describes the purpose as growing your library so you "never run out of things to read." The books themselves are PDFs, and the email is a delivery and discovery channel rather than a separate library.
What you actually receive
The email points you toward books in the InfoBooks catalog. Based on the site's own description, every book in that catalog is:
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Format | |
| Cost | Free |
| Legal status | Public domain, Creative Commons, or shared by the author |
| Registration | Not required |
| Compatibility | Works on all devices that read PDF |
So the daily email is a curated feed into a catalog that is already free and open. You are not paying for access through the email — you are paying with attention, and the site says it sends no spam.
Who this suits
The daily email fits a specific reader profile:
- You want reading material chosen for you rather than searching by category
- You read on multiple devices and prefer PDFs you download once
- You want both fiction and non-fiction in rotation
- You'd rather not create an account anywhere
It suits less well if you want to pick a specific title on demand — in that case, browsing the catalog directly by category or author is faster. The site organizes books by theme (psychology, philosophy, business, fiction, and dozens more) and by classic authors such as Dostoyevsky, Shakespeare, Dickens, and Austen.
How to subscribe, and how to stop
- Go to the InfoBooks homepage.
- Find the email signup field (the site labels it with the prompt to leave the field empty and enter your email).
- Enter your email address and submit.
- Expect one email per day with two book suggestions.
- To stop, use the unsubscribe link in any email — the site says it takes one click.
Points worth knowing before you sign up
- The email is a recommendation service, not a paywall bypass. The books are described as free and legal regardless of whether you subscribe.
- "No registration" applies to reading and downloading books. The email signup itself is the one place you hand over contact information.
- The site claims 10,000+ readers and says new books are added weekly, so the daily picks can draw on a growing catalog.
- The unsubscribe promise is explicit: one email a day, one-click unsubscribe, no spam. If that cadence doesn't match how often you read, the direct catalog is the better entry point.
If your goal is simply to always have something queued up to read, the daily email does that with minimal effort. If your goal is to find one particular book or theme, skip the subscription and go straight to the category or author listings.
