Love the ‘All You can Eat’ Buffet? I do. And I almost always eat too much pie or mac and cheese at these places.
What if there was an unlimited buffet for books? There is, and it is called the Kindle Unlimited program. Just like any buffet, only things that are on the menu are available for consumption. This means that every book in the Amazon store is not part of this program. But plenty of them are.
Authors need to sign their books up for this program and there are pros and cons for this. So authors might only enroll some of their books in the program or take them out after a time. This makes the Kindle Unlimited catalog volatile. But don’t worry. Plenty of new books are being added to it every day.
Is Kindle Unlimited Worth It?
Here are five things about the Kindle Unlimited program. You can decide if it is worth your while.
(You don’t need a Kindle device to read Kindle books. Find out how to read Kindle books without a Kindle.)
1) $9.99 a month or lower if you commit to a longer duration – there is a 30 day free trial you can sign up for.
2) You can read as many books as you want provided they are part of the KU catalog.
3) You can check out only 10 books at a time.
4) You may get access to audio books for free as part of the program.
5) You can cancel anytime.
So is this book subscription service worth your money? Let’s do some simple math. The cheapest book on the Kindle platform is 99 cents. $9.99 gives you 10 such books. If you read more than 10 books a month, this program is definitely worth your while. Another advantage is that you can test drive books without buying them.
Many of the books in the Top 100 are also part of Kindle Unlimited.
So what do you think about Kindle Unlimited? Are you willing to give it a try?
