BOOK SWIM


Recently I discovered a great new service for booklovers - it's like NetFlix for people who love to read. No trips to the library are necessary! Book Swim allows you to make your selections online and will send them right to you with a post-paid return envelope. This allows you to drop the books you've finished into the mail with no hassle and Book Swim sends your next selection right out! You keep track of everything online....no sweat, just lots of reading material delivered right to your door with free shipping! I was primarily inerested in design and cookbooks, but they offer a wide variety of reading material, including paperbacks. Check out the different programs available here.

    Anne,

    Nice to know that this service is available. I know some avid readers who will benefit from a service like this. I'll have to look into it.

    there is another program called booksfree- they just do paperbacks though. I've been a member for about 4years and the pricing plans are great

    What a great idea! I wish we had a service like that in Canada! I'd choose design books too but would probably want to keep them all! ; )
