Yes I read a lot. The thing is most in KU use their free days not countdown deals so it is much cheaper to pick up the freebies than subscribe to KU.

I mentioned buying because some people were under the impression that one could only borrow not buy because they didn't see the second orange line.

But I have also heard authors say yes they will put everything free because readers will only pick up one and come back later to buy the rest.

Of course I also think for value, it varies between genres.
For mystery, not really worth it. At least not to me.
But then again my TBR is miles long.
