No Target carries Kindles. A couple Christmas shopping seasons ago, Amazon was advising its customers to check out products at the retail stores than buy it cheaper online from them. (Using the retail stores as their show room.) Target didn't take too kindly to that and soon announced they would drop all Kindles.

I was just looking at their site and can't even find a simple FAQ link. I'm just supposed to sign up to find out the details? Like exactly what do I get for my $7 a month?

A free ebook each month. I signed up, and I can't see what else is included.

Is it a book of your choice or their choice? Book clubs of old had specific titles each month, but you didn't have to buy it and there was no monthly fee.

Also can you read the book on a device of your choosing?

The first month was my choice, but I don't know about the second month.

So they don't tell you before you have to pay? Sounds like a great service. Can you download the book for a device of your choosing?

The ebooks seem to be locked to Librify's apps.

By now the industrial spies have hacked everybody.
Another, important, distinction - amongst those hacked - is how they proceed from there to inform and help protect the public.
