I recently discovered an app called “Libby” that connects you to your local library, and so far I really like it. You can place a hold on books (join waitlist), or borrow them for a certain amount of time. There are no late fees as they automatically take the book back from you once your allocated time is up, and everything is completely free, it’s also kindle compatible. What is your preferred way of reading/listening to books and what are some of your favorite features in the apps/tech you use?

    Isn’t it only 15 hours each month? That’s only just enough for one average sized book I’d say. I think this is more of a demo thing to entice people to buy audiobooks than anything, which they probably then pay the authors with.

      Yeah and they try really hard to hide it 😒 I knew the “hours” of free listening time stank of corporate, technically true speak. I had to dig through the FAQ to find the exact number.
