I recently bought a Kindle to read Legend of Drizzt. The Kindle came with Kindle Unlimited at no cost, however, Kindle "Unlimited" is indeed very limited, as Amazon only includes certain titles with KU. I bought a few of the books for $8/book, but since they can't be resold or donated, it seemed kinda dumb. So I found out that I can rent Kindle books with my local library card. In Indiana, a bunch of public libraries are in a digital consortium that shares access to books. So for the Drizzt series, there are usually 4-5 copies of each book that can be rented for 3 weeks. It's been pretty great so far, and much better than shelling out ~$300 to read the whole series of 38 books. I will not read this again, won't use them as reference material, so "buying"/licensing them for $8 each really didn't make sense. In fact, I deleted the few I did buy after I read them.
