A friend recently said to me, "I wish there was a Netflix for books." My mind started whirring about the possibility of a business venture like this. Then I read this article in PW Weekly today.Apparently some folks beat us to the punch. Booksfree has been around for seven years. Bookswim is the newcomer but has a similar model. I haven't had the chance to compare the two yet, so feel free to let me know what you think. Seems like a cool idea.
Very cool C.J. I've never heard of these book rental sites, so I'm glad that you posted this. At a quick glance, it seemed that Booksfree had a better selection of Christian fiction. What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteHowever, since my pile of books to read is rather high at the moment :-), this info will have to go on the back burner for a while.
Have a great 4th!
