You can follow authors or titles at ereaderiq.com and purchase them when that happens.
When books are that cheap, I don't much care if they are walled into the Amazon garden. And for KU books that I really want right away that don't go on sale, I don't mind paying for them because it's still cheaper to buy a title here and there than it is to subscribe to KU, plus I can keep them forever without feeling guilty.
So my advice would be to drop the subscription, unless you feel you're reading enough to get full value.

You do know that once you purchase a KU title, as opposed to borrowing them through the KU service, they can be downloaded for eink Kindles, right? Most purchases are less walled in than the KU service itself.
