First thing, check with your local public library.
They are most likely going to already have a free app to use with your library card. (If you don't have a library card, get one. They are free and it is very illegal for libraries to give your data to anyone without a court ordered warrant).
My library uses Libby, and it's great for the most part on any smart device.
If you do end up licensing (and it's a license, not a purchase). Amazon's Kindle store is good and has some exclusives.
This is what I do. First thing I do is check the library through Libby and if they don’t have it I’ll buy it for Kindle.
