I think this freebie thing might backfire. I will sometimes download freebies from Amazon, then convert them to read on my Kobo. Seeing that number, though, just makes me shudder. I know there are probably some gems in there, but there's probably a lot more that's less than stellar. My love for freebies is not strong enough to make me want to wade through more than 1000 self-published books, looking for those gems. If that number continues to go up, I think my looking-at-Amazon-for-freebies days are over.

I'll probably continue to check out books that others recommend, but there's no way I'm wading through all that!
