Engadget reports that Kindle Unlimited’s price rose to $11.99, making it more expensive than its previous rate. However, readers aren’t locked into this cost—especially if they share an Amazon Family account. By sending one adult into the shared wallet, two people can split a subscription, reducing the monthly bill to around $6 each.

Amazon Family lets couples borrow up to four children, and sharing keeps the service valuable for readers who want access without overspending. Shareable options also include automatic sharing and crediting discounts from credit cards, making it easier for book lovers to enjoy a monthly library of titles.
