Getting started

Set up once, in about five minutes.

  1. Choose daily or weekly

    One subscription, two speeds. Daily sends a bundle every evening; weekly sends one every Friday. Switch or cancel whenever you like.

  2. Connect your Kindle

    Tell us your Send-to-Kindle address and add ours to Amazon's approved senders list. It takes about a minute, we walk you through every click, and we send a test book so you know it worked before you rely on it.

  3. Open your Kindle and read

    Bundles simply appear in your library. Nothing to download, no app to open, no link to click.

The library

Everything is in the public domain.

That is not a compromise, it is the point. The work is old enough to have survived an argument with time, and free of the licensing that makes other subscriptions expensive.

Every work is checked so that each contributor, translators included, died at least seventy years ago. It is the translation that usually catches people out: a modern rendering of an ancient text is a new copyright, and those are excluded.

Questions

Asked and answered

What exactly is in a bundle?+
Three pieces of classic literature: a poem, a short story, and an essay. Each is a separate, beautifully formatted book in your Kindle library, so you can read them in any order.
What is the difference between daily and weekly?+
Only the rhythm. The daily plan delivers a fresh bundle every evening; the weekly plan delivers one every Friday evening. Both include the same curation and the same three kinds of literature. You can switch plans or pause whenever you like.
Which Kindles does this work with?+
All of them: every Kindle e-reader and the Kindle apps for iPhone, iPad, and Android. Delivery uses Amazon's own Send-to-Kindle system, the same one Amazon built for personal documents.
Why do I have to approve you as a sender?+
Amazon only accepts documents from email addresses you've personally approved. Otherwise anyone could fill your Kindle with junk. Adding kindle@nightlybundle.com to your approved list takes about a minute; our setup guide walks you through it, and we send a test book so you know it worked.
What will I be reading?+
Classics in the public domain, curated by hand: Poe, Austen, Dickinson, Wilde, Conan Doyle, Whitman, and a growing shelf of others. Never abridged, never AI-generated, and never the same piece twice. Prefer a lane? Choose genres like mystery, poetry, or gothic on your preferences page.
Do I keep the books if I cancel?+
Yes. Everything we send is a DRM-free file delivered to your own Kindle library. It stays there whether or not you're subscribed.
How do I pause or cancel?+
From your account, any time. Pausing skips upcoming deliveries without losing your preferences; cancelling stops billing before the next week. No emails to write, no retention hoops.
A bundle didn't arrive. What do I do?+
Nine times out of ten it's the approved-senders step, since Amazon discards unapproved mail silently. Check the setup guide, use the test-book button on your preferences page, and if it still doesn't appear, email hello@nightlybundle.com (a human reads it).
