Amazon First Reads Kindle books can be read on any Kindle device or free Kindle reading app and become part of customers’ permanent libraries.In participating months, they can also purchase select print editions (up to 10 copies of each title) for $9.99 or less. Every month customers can choose one of the Kindle books selected by Amazon editors for $1.99, or FREE for Prime members.Not sure why they have set it up this way, but there's no way only women use Kindle Unlimited or Prime reading or whatever.Amazon First Reads is a program that offers customers early access to new books across popular genres. It seems 99% of the lead characters are women, the themes trend toward what women would be more interested in, etc. Not only that but the themes and the main characters would be great to see a better mix here. I just feel like they could make a much better effort to mix up the quantity of male to female authors. I realize there is a nonfiction book this month from a male author, but these titles are few and far between. I pick the best sounding of the bunch each month, but only because they are free. It feels as if they are trying to be super PC but way overdoing it. Am I the only one annoyed by this? As a man, I read a lot of different genres, have no issues with female authors, but I would like to see some male authors or a better mix.

I google it and see the same complaint since 2018. I have noticed that in some of the PRIME FIRST READS book reviews, men and women alike have been complaining that every single author chosen is a woman.
