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!

There are a few sites that cover indies so you could cross check there for some that might be free. Red Adept reviews, GraceKrispy (she's here on Mobileread now and then--I met her here.) And...there are some others. (This is in no way about my books; none are free.)
I tend to pick up the freebies when they are mentioned ALONG with a review from dailycheapreads, books on the knob or one of the above sites that I trust. Haven't had much luck just picking up freebies randomly.
