Make it $15 or less and I will subscribe. Otherwise, not worth it. Why?
Because you can't keep the novel with you once you unsubscribe (unless I'm misunderstanding something). They're not really yours to keep. So that cost is a lending cost.
Chapters that were unlocked during subscription should remain unlocked (for our entire library if not all books) then maybe $25 is OK (pricey but might be acceptable).
You want more people reading? More slices of a bigger pie? Reduce the cost barrier.
