Just found out about a great email subscription service where you can get free and discounted books. When you sign up, you choose the genres, sites (Amazon, B&N, Apple, etc) to choose from and several other settings to target the readings you are most interested in.
It will then populate a list and email you once daily on the current deals, what site they are on, how much they are and the link to purchase them. It's awesome and there have been some fantastic books!
It's www.bookbub.com. I highly suggest it!
Just received today's list and thought I'd give you a sampling (this list, of course, is based off of my preference settings-results will vary)
