Paperback books are piled next to a comfortable leather armchair. Each book is worn through as though it was the only book available; pages folded, book bindings cracked. Does this scene look familiar? If you're a voracious reader, it may. There are some readers who go through more than three books a week; sometimes much more than that.Since new books can be expensive, there are other, cheaper options for people who read often. These websites can save an avid reader a lot of money on paperback books.
BooksFree.com
BooksFree.com is a subscription style paperback book rental service. It operates a lot like the movie service Netflix. There are no late fees or due dates for the books you receive. You can keep them and read them for as long as you like.
When you sign up at BooksFree.com, peruse their listing of over 79,000 books to build a queue of books you'd like to read. The company will send you a book on your list. When you're finished, pop it in the mail. Once they receive it, they'll send you the next book in your queue. Shipping is free both ways.
Pricing plans start as low as $8.49 per month which gets you two paperback books at a time. This is a cheap way to read books for people who read often. Plus, there's the added benefit of it getting delivered straight to your home.
PaperbackSwap.com
Paperback Book Swap's book trading service is essentially free. It's free to join and free to receive books. The only time you'd spend money is by sending one of your books to someone else. That usually costs the price of four stamps. Quite a deal! The website works with a system of credits. Each credit you have means you can receive one book. After signing up, if you enter nine of your own books for trade, you'll get three credits good toward getting free books of your own.
Essentially, PaperbackSwap.com is a trading service. Users list paperback books they're willing to get rid of, and other users ask for them. When a book is requested, the book owner pops it in the mail for the other person to receive.
