As of this moment, there are 47,078 free Kindle books on Amazon.com. (Some may be duplicates or classics or both, e.g. four editions of Alice, but at least it's a number. And that doesn't include the Prime lending library, just books with a $0 price.)
If you find 95% unappealing to you, that's 2354 books you may be interested in. Let's say you read
half of those, one per day. Even for the big ones. They would keep you busy
for more than three years. For free.
Yes, finding the diamond in the rough or the needle in the haystack is a treasure hunt, but didn't we all used to do that in dusty bookstores with a far smaller selection, during opening hours while dressed, and have to spend money?
For the record, I am wearing pants. Not saying where, but they're on me.
