Review: THIS blog helped me become a Kindle ADDICT!

(I posted this review under the "Free Kindle Books and Tips" ap  instead of "for Kindle".  I use this on my Kindle Touch and should have posted this here.)I received my Kindle Touch for Christmas 2011 and found this blog shortly after. I was floundering as I was looking through the thousands of free books that Amazon has listed. I found it tiresome and difficult to search Amazon looking for books that I really was interested in reading. I spent WAY too much time browsing through all the book offers and still wasn't finding exactly what I'd hoped (without a lot of effort.)I found this blog during my search for "free" and tried it out. Two week free trial and it costs just change each month to keep it going. The convenience to me is worth it. I love this blog and it's exactly the right fit for me. I don't select every book, but I find more than enough to keep me and my kids (over)stocked with books without spending hours searching for them. Indie authors and mainstream authors...I've found both via the blog.I get a blog entry (delivered directly to my Kindle) just about every day and sometimes a few entries each day (not sure if he guarantees updates on the weekends, but there are weekend entries anyway!) Every day there are 5 or more books listed from various categories/genres. He includes the overall Amazon rating from reviews and the description from Amazon and links to "purchase" the free book. Always make sure the book is still free. They're free when he writes about them, but if you don't check the blog until the next day, the free offering may be gone. That's controlled by Amazon/publisher/author, not the blog.He sometimes includes info if he's read the book or wrote a review for it. I find it amazing that he's able to come up with such a range of books and have so many of them appeal to me. (But not all,thank goodness...what would I do with 5+ new books every day?!)He also includes other Amazon and Kindle tips periodically. If you read the blog long enough, you will see some of the tips repeated, but that's not bad. I've read some and had no interest, and then later, the same tip meant something to me. He also periodically includes links to LOTS of the free books, by category. If you've spent time searching for free books, you know that it's not as easy as just clicking category buttons. He shares his links that he's developed.I've read a few of the reviews that say his blog is too heavy with (insert genre name here) and I can only think they haven't give the blog enough of a chance. I see books offered from most categories at some point. The funny thing is, I'm pretty sure he mentioned that he's not a sci-fi fan, but I've ended up liking a lot of his selections...he has a good method of deciding which books to include in the blog, I guess.I also really like that he periodically asks his audience for input. He wants to know what I want to read! I also feel like I *know* this blog author now. His blogs aren't full of personal info, but again, if you read it long enough, you get an opportunity to be entertained and informed by his great style of writing.This blog has really led me down the road to Kindle addiction. I think that's a good thing...although I spend a lot more time hiding from my kids in the bathroom so I can just finish one more book...
