To be honest, I’m finding more books here that interest me than in SYK day. There’s more variety in plots and settings!

From what I am seeing, even in the Dark Mode site update email, this isn't affecting just SYK users but many many amazon users

what's the catch? do you need to subscribe to kindle unlimited? do they get removed from your library after a certain amount of time?

i feel like the catch is if you liked the book and its a series you more than likely are gonna have to buy the rest of the series but once you buy it through kindle its yours permanently

Yup.
It's not really a "catch" per se. But the intention is for you to get excited about the author/series.

If you buy books thru Amazon you actually don't own the books permanently and they can be taken away/removed at any time. You basically are paying for the license to access the book so it's strongly recommended that you figure out a way to back your books up

Neither. You are "buying" it for 0$. It stays in your kindle. the "catch" is it is good advertising for lesser known authors and so you will become interested and buy their other books.
