This book is most likely in high demand because the series is just that good. Jen has created something so special, and it shows in the library wait lists as well as the publisher’s protective attitude towards the ebook. It’s a good problem to have in terms of the series doing well.
As a fan of the series, it’s wonderful to see that there is so much demand for it. However, I also realize that it can be very frustrating to want to read it and have to wait. But as I said above, a series that nobody cares about can so easily be given away for free because nobody is protecting it. The fact that The Lux Series is so protected is a testament to its value. So even though you may be waiting to get into it, your patience will be rewarded and you can be a part of the support of this wonderful series whether you choose to purchase a copy or borrow from your local library.

I have seen so many memes about this book, I might just have to read it to see for myself what all the hype is about.

I have checked a few of my normal haunts for this and it seems Yonder have it locked down tight. The best way to read this as a legal download would be to sign up for their in-app model and purchase a daily pass to read it. All other claims to download the full novel as a cheaper option are scams. The story is very hot right now, with two possessive twin anti-heroes, so I’d recommend signing up for the app for a bargainous binge read.

Of course, there’s a lot of fun in comparing book to show. But unlike the very faithful first season of television, there are large and soon increasing deviations from the original text as the season goes on. To do this sort of comparison, you’d really need to read the whole, unedited text – something that a free sample would not be able to give you past the introductory setup.
The free sample is like the pilot episode of a show. If you like the pilot, you can then subscribe to the channel to watch the rest of the episodes. There is no way to stream an entire TV show for free on its official network (unless you have a subscription). Bookstores work in much the same way as TV networks – the free sample is your free trial, and then you go to the library or buy the book as a subscriber.

I ‘borrow’ from Amazon by making use of the Kindle books that my friends and family have purchased in abundance. I can add their Kindle books to my own ‘Family Library’ and then ‘lend’ them for two weeks (among other things). This is a ‘feature’ of Amazon that not many people are aware of and it is perfect for single reads.
Sometimes books are published for lending to friends and family, and you can check for these on the book’s product page by looking under ‘Actions’ to see if there is a ‘Loan this book’ link. This isn’t free in the limitless sense, but free in that it means you get to read the book for free if someone else already owns it.

That mood, though. I spent an hour or so scouring the internet for a clean free read of that story before I gave up and headed to Webnovel instead. As it stands, they have plenty of free chapters to read, and you can even do it with the daily passes – just be prepared to watch an ad or two, or wait for the passes to refresh. It’s not exactly a completely free read, but it’s the official way to get free chapters, so it’s got to be better than the unofficial sites, which are a right old mess of pop-ups, missing chapters, and wonky formatting. Best bet is to wait patiently for an official app to come out for your phone, then you can have a decent free read without the risk of malware. Just set a reminder to grab your daily passes, and you can read a few chapters a day.
Just set a reminder to grab your daily pass(es) and you can spend hours reading the story for free.

So, I am a totally above board and respectable person, and the quickest way for you to get 'The Bonus' free is for you to go to your local library, download the app for your library, such as Libby/OverDrive, and borrow it as a free audiobook download. Yep, I confirmed that it is listed in library systems for audiobook borrowing, so go get it! Okay, if you are willing to go for a short-term ‘trick’ to get an audible audiobook, then the free trial for Audible can get you the audiobook title you want for free too (and then you just have to remember to cancel before they charge you for another month). Author’s sites and publisher’s websites also typically list out excerpts from books and also let you know which editions of a book include ‘bonus’ scenes too. I personally found borrowing the audiobook through my library app to be super easy and guilt-free, so that is my first recommendation to you!

Just lurking this thread! It’s fascinating to read about people’s search strategies for books. Keep it up!

I totally understand the appeal of free books and right now for The Netanyahus there aren’t many free options besides borrowing from a library. I actually read half of the books for my book club through the app Libby with my library card. I wouldn’t normally promote pirate sites but I do feel strongly that we should be paying authors for their work. Perhaps you could ask a friend if they have a copy that you could borrow from them? That’s how we share the good books in my book club!

We're doing that book for my book club next month and I'm freaking out because 7 copies is a lot. 2 of us are just buying it, 3 people are on waitlists at different libraries, 1 is using an Audible credit to listen to it and sharing her listening time with everyone, and 1 is kind of waiting to see when her sister finishes reading the physical copy and can mail it to her.
So if you’re in a reading group, plan ahead and figure out how to get the book for your members well in advance of your meeting. Coordinate with each other. Maybe one of you can get the audiobook and the rest of you can listen at your leisure. Sometimes local bookstores will even offer a discount on bulk purchases of a new release if you ask nicely.
