Hello! Here are some bookish places online that I’d like to tell you about. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions! I personally have had very good experiences with these sites. Thanks, and happy reading! ~ Rachel
My favorite places to acquire used books online:
Thriftbooks: Create an account using this link and receive a 15% discount on your first order. Woot! :)
AbeBooks: I use Abe and Thriftbooks simultaneously. Whenever I want to buy a book, I search for it on both websites and then compare availability, price, condition of book, etc.
PaperBackSwap: I have been using PBS since 2010 and have had very good results! PBS is an enormous book swapping community with over 3M books available. Simply put, you pay postage (media mail) cost to send a book and other swappers pay postage cost to send a book to you. (You don’t have to swap directly with another person.) It’s a pretty swell system.
My favorite bookish websites:
Goodreads: FAVE bookish site, for certain! Goodreads is like a social media site that’s all about books, authors, reading, connecting with other readers and authors, and much, much more! You can build a virtual bookshelf, track your reading progress, your friend’s reading progress, enter book giveaways, take book quizzes, etc. etc. etc. Seriously, it’s pretty amazing.
LibriVox: Free public domain audiobooks. Read by volunteers from around the world. LibriVox audiobooks are free for anyone to listen to, on their computers, iPods or other mobile device, or to burn onto a CD.
