Welcome to the first post of a new monthly feature here on The Book Review Crew highlighting some of the best books on Kindle Unlimited. Per Amazon’s website “Kindle Unlimited is a service that allows you to read as much as you want, choosing from over 2 million titles, thousands of audiobooks, and up to three select magazine subscriptions. Explore new authors, books, and genres from mysteries and romance to sci-fi and more. You can read on any device. It’s available for $9.99 a month and you can cancel anytime.” I have been a long time KU subscriber and I usually read enough books each year to make up for the cost. You can subscribe here.
I have listed a few highly-rated books you can get right now on Kindle Unlimited–current as of the date of this post. I have not read all of these books but have limited my selection to books with a 4+ star rating and over 500 reviews.
