Kindle Unlimited Subscription
This is a $10 monthly subscription through Amazon that allows access to a wide variety of books. With over more than 1.4 million books on various topics. Many readers only know of the erotic/romance novels available, but there are also middle-grade books, mystery, horror, memoirs, self-help, and much more. This can be a good option for people who like reading virtually, but don't have the money to buy a bunch of ebooks every month. Right now Kindle also has a reading event going on where you get little badges for meeting goals. You can also input your reading goal. There is also the option for some of these as audiobooks. There are magazines you can subscribe to with this subscription. Some of the books are exclusive to Amazon. I do personally have this subscription and I like it.
Kindle Book Deals
Kindle book deals has free or reduced-price Kindle books available to purchase. There are daily deals and monthly deals that you can look at. There is a large quantity of old and new books of various genres. These books typically range from $0.99 to $3.99. This is especially good if you are looking for one or two books.
Scribd
This is an $11.99 monthly subscription that gives you access to audiobooks, magazines, ebooks, podcasts, and sheet music. This offers over 2 million audiobooks and ebooks. They do currently have a free 30-day trial which is great if you want to figure out how much you would use it. Looking at the subscription page I saw quite a few book options: The Invisible Life of Addie Larue, Concrete Rose, The New Jim Crow, and others. They seem to have lots of popular books available. It looks like Scribd has a pretty average rating.
Libby App
If you have a library card, you can access Libby. This is a free service for anyone with a library card. If you can go out and get a library card, even if it is hard to get to your library to get physical books, you can access online books. Like a library, some of the books have to be put on hold and you have to wait to be able to access the books. If you're looking for popular books, you might have to wait a while to get them. There is, however, a large number of books available from classics to new releases. Libby has good reviews and a lot of book Tiktok Creators use the app.
Audible
Audible is an audiobook site/app. There is the option of a free 30-day trial after which you pay $14.95 for one free book or two if you have Amazon Prime. To me, this doesn't seem like a great deal, but I know my mom loves Audible so I have access to numerous audiobooks that she's purchased through it. There are tons of books to choose from on all different topics.
Chirp Books
This is an audiobook website without a subscription fee that offers audiobooks at a discount. This is another one that seems to be popular on Tiktok.
Barnes & Noble
Barnes & Noble has a wide selection of ebooks available for purchase. They even have a list of around 500 ebooks under $5. They also have a selection of ebooks under $2.99. This is a good option if you like to buy ebooks but aren't interested in supporting Amazon. Unfortunately, you can't use your Barnes & Noble membership discount on ebooks.
ManyBooks
This is a site with 50,000+ ebooks available. It is completely free and on the site calls itself a library. There are books of all different genres: romance, horror, YA, biographies, etc.
These are, of course, just a few sites out of many. Hopefully, they help you to find access to more books. Happy reading.
