Just got win 10 on my new build. Went to install ms security essentials and it says windows 10 has windows defender so it doesn't need ms sec essentials, I can't find an answer. Is this true I don't need to install ms security essentials?

Windows Defender for Windows 8.1, Windows RT 8.1, and Windows 10 provides built-in protection against malware. You can't use Microsoft Security Essentials, but you don't need to—Windows Defender is already included and ready to go.
Ok if I don't use MS Security Essentials what should I run along with the Defender?
I'm not sure what you're asking. Windows Defender REPLACED Windows Security Essentials in Win8+. Did you look at the link I posted?
You could also run Malwarebytes if you want.
I did read the link but it used to be you never ran one line of defence. But maybe MS got it perfected now. I am finding some of the programs I used in win 7 are not compatible with win 10. I went to load the kindle for pc and it said it is not compatible. Is there a reader that will read amazon books but is compatible>
I don't use Kindles, so I can't really help you with that.
Maybe you can try looking at Amazon comments/support:
