It may be Monday, but here's a Fabulous Freebie - Book Bub

I am lucky enough to be surrounded by a fantastic team of librarians, clerks, assistants, teachers, volunteers, and long time library advocates.  People are ALWAYS providing me with suggestions: books to order, movies to see, blogs to read, listservs to join, products to purchase, pages to like, the brilliant ideas are endless.  I L-O-V-E the suggestions.  Some of the best resources I use regularly are from my fellow staffers. 

Today I have one for you.   If you read digital books, I encourage you to sign up for Book Bub.  Book Bub sends you daily emails containing links to discounted and free eBooks that are available for a limited time only. The kind of books offered are remarkable and hit every interest level imaginable: biographies, LGBT, children's, Christian fiction, paranormal romance, horror - you name it and the genre is on this list.  The deals only run for two to three and titles are either free or deeply discounted.  To take advantage of these deals it is essential to have an Amazon.com account, but some additional formats are supported.  (I prefer Amazon because I can read it in my cloud reader, on my Android phone, or on my Kindle.)

Today I download a children's book called Diggy as well as a biography about Nelson Mandella, for FREE.  Most titles are not over $2.99.  When you sign up for the service, you take a survey to help set up preferences so that when you receive your daily message your interests are reflected in the suggestions.  However, you can also go right to the Book Bub page and search for books as well, depending on what kinds of reading mood you are in.

As a busy mom, I don't always immediately get to read the books I 'purchase'.  However, that is the beauty of buying digital content.  Readers can keep the content indefinitely and read it as time permits.  So if you know you're doing to the Dominican with your honey to catch some rays, you can stockpile cheap or free titles and read them when you have a few minutes to relax.  As a public librarian I have to be resourceful, as a mom, wife, and lady, I choose to be resourceful.  Why not give you pocket book a break and sing up.  Let me know how it works out for you.
