    I’m so excited you made this video. I kept seeing ads on my kindle and thought “someone should read these and do a TH-cam video on them.” Very entertaining. I never read romance, but I always get romance ads so I’m curious how they determine what they advertise lol

    The ads are definitely NOT smart, lol. I get 90% German romance/historical ads and I have read maybe 3 romances in my entire life and I read almost exclusively in English. But since I'm based in Germany, Kindle Ads keep showing me German books ...

  • @Blueheart556
    @Blueheart556 3 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Side note, if you call Amazon they can take off the ads~ sometimes for free if you’re a prime member, if they don’t waive the fee I think it’s $20 to remove them.
