Y’all have heard about Kobo Plus, I am presuming, but in case not: Kobo Plus is nifty.
Kobo Plus is a subscription service that allows you unlimited access to ebooks, audiobooks, or, depending on the plan, ebooks and audiobooks.
I’ll be honest – I didn’t know about the separate Kobo Plus Listen option until recently and I’m really happy with it.
If the graphic isn’t legible for you, Kobo Plus Listen is $7.99US per month, and there are over 150,000 audiobooks in their catalog.
Kobo Plus Read is also $7.99US per month, and has over 1.5 million ebooks in their catalog, including some exclusives, and entire series bundles, too.
And Kobo Plus Read & Listen is $9.99 per month – both listening and ebooks, for $10. That’s a really good deal.
Plus, if you’re a new subscriber, you can try Kobo Plus for 30 days for free, and cancel any time.
I love a cancel any time – and if you’re someone who worries that you won’t remember to, here’s a tip. When you sign up for a free trial, set a reminder or calendar appointment for just under the free trial length, with a link to where you can unsubscribe. So if it’s a 14 day free trial, sign up, and IMMEDIATELY afterward, set a reminder or calendar item for 12 or 13 days from now that your trial is about to end, and do you want to renew? Helps me out immensely.
But back to unlimited ebooks and audiobooks because this catalog is pretty hefty. There are series bundles of ebooks including the Magic After Midlife series by Deborah Wilde, and, if you have younger readers who love this series the way my kids did, Diary of A Wimpy Kid is in the Kobo Plus catalog, too. Penny Reid’s Knitting in the City? It’s in there. I’ve also bookmarked the Manners and Monsters collection by Tilly Wallace.
The romance reads cover a lot of genres and authors, the Sci Fi and Fantasy collection has a number of books I’ve favorited, and of course there’s Mysteries and Thrillers. The entire Verity Kent series by Anna Lee Huber is available in ebook. (Such a good series.)
Over in audio, some items in my listening queue: the Agatha Raisin Mysteries by MC Beaton are available, as are all the Penric & Desdemona books by Lois McMaster Bujold. Plus there are a bunch of historical romances from Erica Ridley, Jess Michaels, Darcy Burke, and more.
And if you like manga, graphic novels, and comics, there’s so much to look at. I had a lovely trip down nostalgia boulevard thinking of all the Archie comic digests I used to read on the beach as a kid. The entire Goldie Vance series by Hope Larson is available, and if Harlequin manga is your jam, there’s plenty to choose from.
Most importantly: you’ve got options in your subscription services. If you’re an insatiable reader and listener (hi) an unlimited subscription plan can keep you happily engrossed and save you some money, too.
