Bookbub

It's no secret that I am obsessed with books. I don't know if it's the teacher in me or the fact that my mom read me a bedtime story every night as a kid but I just can't get enough of them. There's truly nothing I love more than to curl up with a good book whenever I have a free moment. I love the getting lost in a book and gaining new friends and family in the characters. I'm one of those people who will read a whole book series in a week and feel lost when it's over. But let's be real here, as a mom with a toddler the opportunity to read is pretty slim these days. Long gone are the romance novels. Now it's Farm Animals or Curious George. Whatever makes Harper happy. 

But while on vacation last week I had the opportunity to read quite a few books thanks to all the many hands and super large hearts! While Kevin's family spoiled Harper rotten I had the luxury and privilege to catch up on quite a few books by the pool and I'm not gonna lie... It was like a small slice of heaven. 

Several months back I came across  Bookbub. Bookbub is a website online that will share daily book deals with you. It's super quick and easy to sign up. You simply type in your email address and then take a small survey that asks about your book interests. After you submit the information and like their Facebook page they'll send you three daily book deals a day by email that cater to your interests and will work on your reading device. One book is always free, another will be $0.99, & the third usually runs between $1.99-$2.99. Occasionally you'll luck up and can purchase a whole book series for $0.99! The email always shows a picture of the book's cover as well as a description which helps you decide whether or not to download/ purchase the book. For me, I rarely buy the books because the free ones are usually sufficient enough. But a few capture my attention and I find myself clicking to get the deal regardless if I have to pay. The only downfall is that the deals usually only last for a few days so if you don't check your email regularly, some of the deals have already expired when you do. But on the bright side you'll have a new email with another day's deals! If you're a reader you should definitely check it out! I'm so glad I did. The majority of the books on my kindle are ones that I've downloaded from Bookbub and so far all of the ones I have read are definitely to my liking! And the best part is I haven't had to spend a dime :D
