Website Wednesday--Try BookBub for Ebooks

BookBub is a website that recently came to my attention.  You can sign up for a daily email message listing free and sale ebook deals customized by the vendors and genres of your choice.  Select as many categories as you'd like, and the newsletter you receive will be a one stop shop--no more going to each of the individual ebook stores you use to see what the latest sales are.


Here's an overview of BookBub taken from its website:

What is BookBub?
BookBub is a free email newsletter that keeps you updated about deeply discounted and free digital books. You choose the types of books you'd like to get notified about -- with categories ranging from mysteries to cookbooks -- and we send the best deals in those genres to your inbox.

BookBub doesn't actually sell books. We simply alert you by email to fantastic limited-time offers that can be purchased from retailers like Amazon's Kindle store, Barnes and Noble's Nook store, Apple's iBookstore, and others. Book publishers offer deals at these sites for promotional purposes, and our staff works with them to determine the best ones to send to our members.

BookBub features works ranging from big-name authors like Michael Connelly, Debbie Macomber, and Jodi Picoult, to independent authors who might be lesser known but whose books are getting rave reviews. Our team of book experts works to bring you the best deals on quality books that you'll love.

Website Wednesday, October 17, 2012--Ebooks

On Wednesdays, this blog will focus on interesting book-related items found in cyberspace.  Check out my latest find below.

Last week I discovered a website with backlisted titles in electronic format for a select group of authors.  If you are interested in exploring electronic versions of books published before the introduction of ereaders, visit this website:

http://www.backlistebooks.com/

Downloads are available for Nook, Kindle, Kobo, Smashwords, Diesel, Sony and iTunes devices.  

There are more than 90 authors listed, and you can search the site by author name or across 13 genres.  Several of my favorite mystery series writers are listed.  The ebooks are reasonably priced, and there are a few available free of charge.  

While on the site, sign up for their email newsletter.  I did--and the subscription confirmation link  included an offer for a free ebook download.  This was a nice surprise.   The website also has a link to a Facebook fan page.

Happy ereading!
