Hoopla is a great way to read books, watch movies, and listen to audiobooks. The company, a subsidiary of Midwest Tape, works with libraries and various production companies to allow people with library cards to borrow online materials from their local library.
Instead of a streaming service subscription, you can use Hoopla to get only the TV shows and movies you like, along with audiobooks and ebooks.
Remember, since you are getting this service from your local library, you can also borrow physical books and be part of a community of readers.
