Do you need Amazon Prime for Prime Day book deals?

For Amazon Prime Day book deals proper - yes, you'll need to be an Amazon Prime member. The good news is, however, most of these remaining deals - and the book deals found at the retailer all year round - are not exclusive to Prime members.

Still, we'd recommend considering picking up Prime for the next event, and possibly even over Black Friday. While there are usually tons of general sales open to all customers over Prime Day, Amazon always keeps its best deals for Prime members exclusively. Thankfully, the retailer offers a free trial throughout the year, which you can use to gain access to every Prime Day deal free of charge.

Get a free 30-day trial of Amazon Prime

Amazon is currently offering a 30 day free trial of Prime. While you're a little early for Prime Day itself, you'll get the same benefits as paid members: free delivery, early access to lightning deals, plus video streaming, music, Prime Reading and more. You can cancel at any time during the trial. After 30 days, Prime will cost $12.99/£7.99 per month.
