If you do use these, great. If not, that is fine too.
Looking for something to read? Check out these suggested books from Dear Author and the DA community:
All the other open threads can be found here.
Welcome to Dear Author. If this is your first time, you may want to read our page for Readers (this is like a FAQ) or our page for Authors. We also have a handy dandy review policy page for Authors, Publishers and Publicists.
We post daily book reviews of romance books, young adult romances and many more.
There are also nearly daily postings of book deals, free books, industry news, book insights, and ebook technology thoughts and commentary.
There are a couple of ways that you can contribute to DA.
If you have other ideas on contributing, email jane @ dearauthor.com
We do not purchase all the books we review here. Some we receive from the authors, some we receive from the publisher, and some we receive through a third party service like Net Galley. Some books we purchase ourselves. Login

This service has been around for awhile — each day for 5 days you receive an excerpt of the week’s book in your email. You get to choose your preferred genre. It usually amounts to the first 2 or 3 chapters, not the full book. The idea is that if you like the book you’ll then either purchase it or pick it up from the library.
The website is http://www.dearreader.com . I don’t think they strictly require that one is affiliated with a library, though I’m sure they prefer it.

Yeah, I know that spot. I live about 20 miles from there. Matter of fact, the company I used to work for made that sign in the photograph. :-)
They have a heck of a book on CD collection, too. Read many, many books that way. Come on out to Virginia!!
