BookSwim

Jenners shared a website on her book blog yesterday that some of you might find interesting.

BookSwim works in much the same way as sites like Netflix. A simple monthly fee allows you to rent books through the mail and keep them for an indefinite amount of time without late fees. There are also options for purchase if you want to keep a book.

If I didn't already have SO many unread books sitting on my shelf, I would seriously be interested in this!!!

Lead me not into temptation.

A seriously good idea but like yourself I have a pile of books begging to be read.

Many years ago I used to get Christian books on tape through a program like this. But it was free. Great idea, though! Blessings!

I wish we could have something like it in Denmark, but the problem is that our postage is monstrously expensive - and so are our books.

What we really need is a Danish branch of Amazon, I suppose, as good second-hand books are also fairly steep.

I'll consider it in about 10 years when I've made a dent in my to-read shelves here at home! :)

Got my copy of "Native Guard" today and have devoured it! Love it!!!
