I find the best way to use KU is to look in genres you like on Amazon and read the blurbs or plot synopsis and try what appeals to you. I don't limit myself to KU but am often surprised just how many are included. Also, I came across many great authors, many of whom put all or most of their books in KU.
I do a similar search. I love new (to me) authors, and I find a lot of new authors that I want to read, as well as established authors older stuff (who I sometimes haven't even heard of!)

I've found so many authors that I could have 100 or more books downloaded from KU if Amazon would let me. So any more, I have a wish list for KU, when I find a book that interests me, I make note of it in my wish list. It has become my TBR list.
