I treat my manhwa budget with the same care that I budget for coffee. I’m willing to sacrifice one fancy coffee a month to stock up on Lezhin manhwa with my $5 in Lezhin coins each month. The first manhwa I purchased with my Lezhin coins was ‘Pearl Boy’. I treat it as a luxury and therefore I feel no guilt in reading it for free after I’ve paid for it. As with any form of entertainment, there are always free ways to access it, but people who can afford to support it should, even if it’s just a little each month, because it’s money that will keep people creating this art and translation it for the world to read.

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.

While it’s possible to find great books on any platform (free or paid), the platforms themselves matter less than your ability to filter and the information you get from other readers. Learning to use advanced search operators can help you find more of what you need on any platform. For example, AO3 allows you to exclude tags, pair up characters, and set a word count. Google search can also be filtered by using “site:[website URL]” followed by your search terms to only look for information within a single website. Furthermore, word of mouth is valuable. Find a reviewer on Goodreads or a Twitter user who reads in a similar vein to yourself and they can alert you to free books, new authors publishing on free platforms, and even older archives of books that you may have otherwise missed. Essentially, the best sources of information are not necessarily the most obvious, and it is building a network of sources that will provide the most relevant information to you as a reader.

Club 22 has really wowed me with their art style, and I’m really interested to check out their free options, even though they are mostly pretty fragmented. I would want official samples to be able to see if it is worth me buying the rest of the series. As long as it blows me away I’ll save up to buy it, Treat yo’ self!

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.

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!

If a novel such as Crown Me Yours exists as a free audiobook on Spotify (we would have to search for it), listening to it while at work would be an ideal way to read the novel as we have a Premium account which includes tons of free serialized audiobooks. There also exist YouTube channels that offer ‘podcast-style’ recordings of novels. Each chapter is read by a voice and there are even full productions that include many voice actors.
Keep in mind that YouTube videos (in the form of playlisted audio podcasts) can get removed quickly when a channel receives a copyright strike. That is why it is good to download the whole YouTube podcast or save it offline as fast as you can. These amateur reads can actually bring lots of charm to the story and can make for a very nice alternative way to experience a story, turning your search from ‘where to read’ to ‘where to listen’.

I stumbled upon 'Shattered Girl' a while back and was hooked from the first chapter. You can find it on platforms like Wattpad or Webnovel, where many indie authors upload their work for free. Sometimes, authors share early drafts on their personal blogs or Patreon before official releases. Just search the title + 'free read' – fan forums often have threads linking to legit free sources. Be cautious of shady sites though; they might have malware or incomplete versions. The story’s worth tracking down—it’s a raw, emotional journey about resilience that stays with you long after the last page.

Recently free titles I have read came through my local library’s e-catalog. After that I check authors’ Patreon pages, even Wattpad, where sometimes authors will post additional works (such as sequels) in progress, even early drafts. The recently published title of ‘How It All Began’ might be difficult to read for free, but titles like these sometimes turn up in used book exchanges and in ‘pay what you like’ sales. The publisher occasionally surprises subscribers to the publisher’s newsletter with free copies.

I try to recommend free reads and stick to the ethical gray areas. For ‘Butter’ you can check out legitimate free samples, Google Books can give you a preview of the book, and check out library apps on your tablet. If you’re in school you never know what kinds of pop culture books your school’s library might carry. I also like to recommend free books to people and then recommend similar stories that are also free to readers who are part of fan communities online.
