Re: Kindle Book Subscriptions
Doh! Silly me. I had a new modem that I installed a few days ago. Thinking of this I went into settings on the Kindle, and it listed the WIFI connections. Yes the new one was listed. When I selected it, it wanted the passcode. I entered it, and then all the 2 books that I had paid for and other free ones all got downloaded.End of another drama.

Re: Kindle Book Subscriptions
Mrs Zaphod reads quite a bit & finds that the £7-99/month Kindle Unlimited option suits her.Myself as quite an avid reader I have always disliked Amazon's attempted domination of the ebook market so I won't buy a Kindle, nor will I pay them to read a book.
I know there are those that will decry what I'm about to say so my hard hat is ready, but here goes:
There are lots of ways to read just about any book you can imagine for free.
Not that I can go into details as such things are frowned-upon, but there are numerous ways and if you are so-inclined it's even possible to read Amazon's free books (for those that have Amazon Prime for example) on a non-Amazon ereader.
As earlier, I know there are those that frown upon such practices but IMHO it is no different to buying a whole stack of second-hand books for next-to-nothing.
It's a darned sight more eco-friendly too.

Re: Kindle Book Subscriptions
I have so far resisted joining the Kindle Unlimited books because I either go to my library, or read ebooks on Overdrive (through my library subscription). Other areas might use BorrowBox. And I get free ones on Amazon, or might buy one for a quid or two.If anyone has a library card I’d recommend their ebook side.
