Connie (244 KP) rated Audible – audio books, original series & podcasts in Apps
Jun 4, 2018
Wide variety of books available (2 more)
Pairs well with Kindle app
Uses you Amazon account
Outstanding!
I LOVE Audible. I use it all the time to add narraration to books I have purchased for my Kindle/ Kindle app (on my phone) for Amazon, and not just for the really popular books either. Books whose authors I have never heard of before reading often have narraration available, and they cost considerably less than, say, the Harry Potter books.
Personally, I enjoyed their membership options. They have a gold membership (3 credits a month) and a regular membership (1 credit a month); I paid about $15 a month for the basic membership. Some books will cost much more than that to purchase, so it's a steal--the Harry Potter books would have cost me between $30-$40 each if I purchased them alone. Instead I waited and got each one for that $15 membership credit. And supposedly the credits never go bad.
All in all, this is an app I intend to use and that I recommend to everyone!

Easy to use. (1 more)
Has everything you could need.
Honestly the only shopping app I even use anymore.
Honestly at this point I don't know anybody that really uses any other shopping app accept Amazon and especially if you're a Prime member everything is just really easy they have a list of pretty much anything you could need on the face of this planet. The app is always updating I've never had any issues actually using it.
The only two complaints I really have is with the different users that sell the item you do have to kind of check for different prices because Amazon price isn't always the cheapest 9 in the 10 times it is but not always and it can get a little lost looking through some of the results. My other thing is I really wish like Walmart and stuff it had a price guarantee because Amazon's price isn't always the cheapest you can find a cheaper at Walmart Target other stores like it.

I can no longer support this podcast
I really loved this podcast up until I found out some of the sketchy things that Alexa Riley (Lea & Mel) have done. They're known scammers who have book stuffed on Amazon, stolen plots from various authors and have been subsequently banned from Amazon.
I still love that you can get free professionally narrated audiobooks but I cannot listen to this podcast anymore due to the above issues.
Original Review:
I love this podcast because I get to try new authors and listen to professionally narrated audiobooks in bite-size chunks. I'm not one to listen to podcasts, so when I heard about this podcast through a Skye Warren post, I knew I needed to give it a try.
This podcast is a great way to read new authors and find some new favorites. I haven't had a chance to listen to all of them, but it has been fun catching up to the live airing and listening to all of the different novellas.

I still like my desktop but I shop with the app
I prefer to order on my laptop or desktop, but I really like the app for shopping in a retail store. I can shop in a brick and mortar store and check prices on my phone. I can scan a barcode and see if I am getting ripped off and I should just order from Amazon instead. Great app, works well, and all of my data travels with me.

Great for streaming
I won this in a Smashbomb giveaway and wanted to give it a few weeks use before reviewing.
We have a couple of chromecast's, a couple of Amazon FireSticks and now the Roku. I've got to say out of the three I think Roku takes the win. The connection for streaming seems on par with the Chromecast and better than the Firestick's... and it adds the functionality of apps which the chromecast doesn't.
Great piece of kit.

Without ideas
So this latest Amazon original film has just been released amid quite a bit of advertising. Starring Michael B Jordan it looked like a big budget project with a mix of action and thriller. While it does have some entertaining scenes overall it feels less than the sum of its parts. Almost like ideas and plots from several different spy action films. Rather by the numbers, an ok effort but nothing original.
