Would it not be easier to go to the library to get the books you want?

my libary is about the size of a closet out hear. it's really sad everytime i want to borrow a book it is never in and then they never call when they do have it in. so i usually buy all my books however this looks pretty good insed of buying.

How funny Cyra. I just read an article about a place that I was going to post that emails a part of a book to you everyday and it is free. I will go search for the info and post it. The place you posted sounds a lot like this: http://bookcrossing.com/

I have been a member there for a LONG time and love it. Instead of setting books free you can trade with others what is on their "book shelf"

Dear Reader,

I'm glad you stopped by DearReader.com. Sign up at any of my email book clubs and every day I'll send you a 5-minute sample from a book. By the end of the week, you'll have read two or three chapters. If it's a book you've just gotta finish, and I hope it is, visit your local library or your favorite bookstore and pick up a copy. Have fun.

Thanks for reading with me. It's so good to read with friends.

Barb,

Thanks, for posting that site. Like the idea of reading a few chapters of a book before I buy it.

Been so let down before on books that I thought was so good, but by the second or third chapter - I was ready to put it down.

Added bonus- If u like a book u been reading u can search for it over at the link I posted..
