kindle prime lending & kindle unlimited

janrey · 07-21-2014, 11:38 PM

Can anyone who has prime but hasn't borrowed a book this month see if they still can? I've borrowed already this month but I'm positive it used to still show that a book was able to be borrowed but then just stated I already borrowed my limit. For a book, any Kay Bratt book should be prime lending library. but thye are only showing up only as Kindle Unlmited. If not able, I guess I'm going to have to write an email to tell them something is broke.

It's my understanding from the discussion threads on KU that Prime lending books have a Prime logo by the price to differentiate them on the website. Anyway I just fired up my Kindle Touch and was able to borrow The Scavenger's Daughters via Prime just fine.

There's been a lot of discussion and confusion in the Amazon customer forums about this. The Kindle Owners Lending Library (KOLL) for Prime members is unchanged. I just checked on of the Kay Bratt titles, Scavenger's Daughter, and it is still Prime eligible and thus included in the KOLL.

Thanks, that's what I wanted to know. I've read 3 of the series and want to get the forth. Right now I have no need for KU as I have tons of books I've gotten free or cheap in my queue to read.

You mean in your "queue" to read, not your "cue". Completely different meaning.

You'd think readers would be better at the vocabulary. It aint a spelling mistake. Queue and Cue are two totally different things.
