I’ve had a Kindle Unlimited subscription for a few years now and I’m not sure I could ever go back to not having one. Reading is my primary leisure activity and being able to quickly download books on my Kindle Paperwhite has been a huge time saver. It’s also saved me quite a bit money on new books because I primarily read LitRPG.
Kindle Unlimited is a great service if you read a lot of books, but only really if the genre you like to read actually has popular options included. There are a lot of great reads on Kindle Unlimited at any given time, but it certainly doesn’t include everything. Popular new releases like Sunrise on the Reaping and Onyx Storm, for example, were not included with the subscription and needed to be purchased separately. That being said, if you mostly read LitRPG books like I do, Kindle Unlimited is an incredible value — especially with the early Prime Day deals going now.
Kindle Unlimited – Get Three Months Free

This Kindle Unlimited deal is the same one I took advantage of years ago because Amazon tends to offer this promotion every Prime Day. What you get is a free three-month trial of the service, which then turns into a $12 monthly subscription fee after that. This promotion is only available for folks who currently have an Amazon Prime membership and haven’t already used up their free trial. Although it has Kindle right there in the name, you actually don’t need a Kindle device to use the service. It works great on pretty much any reading tablet or just on your phone.
Why It’s Worth Subscribing If You Like LitRPG
Like I mentioned above, I definitely recommend you try out Kindle Unlimited if you are fan of LitRPG books. I read anywhere between five and seven books every month and almost all of them are included with my subscription — even the new releases. When I first started getting into LitRPG as a genre I found myself purchasing each book separately, which almost immediately got out of hand when reading a series that had 10+ books in it. The fact that my wife can also use my account to download books each month only solidified my justification for paying the monthly subscription fee long term.
My favorite LitRPG series on Kindle Unlimited
I’ve found that most popular LitRPG is available for free with a Kindle Unlimited subscription, but if you’re looking for specific recommendations, all of the above options are all worth diving into. For those who haven’t read LitRPG before, I’d definitely suggest starting with He Who Fights With Monsters or Dungeon Crawler Carl. Both of these are generally just really great sci-fi fantasy reads that happen to incorporate RPG elements throughout.
