As someone who has a tendency to fly through books in a single weekend and then immediately purchase another from my Goodreads “Want to Read” shelf, I am painfully aware of how quickly the cost of books can add up. It wasn’t until an avid reader and giver of great advice (my mom, of course) introduced me to Kindle Unlimited that I realized there was a way to read book after book without dreading seeing each of them on my bank statement.
The vast catalog of books (over 2 million titles) on Kindle Unlimited makes the $9.99 subscription cost (after the 30-day free trial) so worth it—you can sometimes even find highly anticipated new books from your favorite authors (one of our editors was shocked to find Colleen Hoover’s newest title available). It’s truly a book lover’s dream and a wallet’s saving grace, so even though you can cancel anytime, we don’t think you will ever want to once you explore what’s available.
Whether you’re interested in reading a book that can help you believe in love again or a book that can take you back in time, we have rounded up 19 of the best Kindle Unlimited books ranging from sci-fi to self-help that are available this month.
