In a couple of days, I'm pulling the plug and cancelling.

Remember that you can unsubscribe any month you want, if you will no longer be having the time. I think a lot of people will be subscribing only for the summer months or whenever they have vacation and can read a lot more.

Since I'm on the Audible Light plan now, I'm planning to reassess after I get the other two Audible credits. There's a few indie authors I want to support, and some others I'd like to check out before I cancel.

Given it some more thought and I'm leaning heavily to this side of things. These two credits would be great! And my mind is on all these British mysteries from Open Road Media *sigh*

Not sure how I feel about going the subscribe/unsubscribe route with KU, though I have done it a few times with Netflix.

I seriously doubt that.
Amazon is too cheap to afford you.

I've decided....unless I find out there is a significant discount for Prime members, I'm dropping it. One free Prime book a month is plenty, and costs me nothing extra. I'll never make a dent in my TBR if I feel like I have to read 3 or 4 or more subscription books a month to get my money's worth.

You also get a free Kindle First book each month from a selected list of four books.

That's right! I always get one, though I have yet to read them.

And if you had a Samsung Galaxy, you get another free book each month.

Just the phone, or does this work with a Samsung Tablet?

I've been getting them on a Galaxy Tab 2. Not all Galaxys qualify.

Ok, here is the problem I currently see with the Kindle Lending program and now with Unlimited.

I just finished Steel World by B.V. Larson, the first of his Undying Mercenaries series (great scifi book btw). Looking through the series, Book 1 and 2 are Unlimited but Book 3 is not. I get hooked on a series thats Unlimited then bam! I have to pay to continue the series. This ticks me off to no end. Its happening more and more.

Imagine watching Breaking Bad on Netflix and they tell you that you have to pay extra for the last season. You would be pissed too.

I won't start a series until I have access to the whole thing.

And also depends on how new the last book is too - it may be in KU after a while.
