The return of TWW
Well I haven't been here in ages!
The first thing I did when I found myself again (hehe) was read some of the old posts.
The photos are all gone.
This is because the host decided to start charging and of course, no one in their right mind is going to pay.
So I'll have to find a way around that.
My computer decided to go knees up so all my old stuff was lost except that which was backed up onto hard drives.
It's okay.
Life doesn't rely on having things saved for ever and ever.
More about Kindle Unlimited
I thought I would write today about Amazon Kindle Unlimited once again.
About a year ago, I did a 1 month trial and was not really impressed.
This year I was offered a 2 month trial and decided to give it a go again considering its had time to improve.
This time I borrowed 10 books at a time on various subjects in which I have an interest.
The first thing I noticed was, there are now more books to choose from.
While some are still not very professionally laid out or well written, at least there are enough on offer to find one or two diamonds among the rough.
I borrowed on the following subjects
3D printing
Programming
Frugality
Cookery
Sailing
Make your own
Money saving
Living Without money
Learning Spanish
Camping
Prepping
and a few more I cant remember
Over the two months, I think I borrowed around 250 books which I opened and read or skimmed through.
The skimming was because some of the books were so obviously a waste of time.
I did not borrow any fiction except for the Spanish (some were children's stories) .
At the end of the two months, I cancelled the membership because as before, the books available were rarely so interesting that I would have thought myself lucky to have paid the months subscription instead of the usual purchase price.
One book I particularly wanted to read and the main reason I eagerly clicked yes to try the two month trial, was not actually available to borrow on UK kindle unlimited. It kept redirecting to a message saying that it was not available as a free read outside of the USA.
