If you are or anyone you know is based in the United States (or if you visit quite often and stay for a relatively long period of time), you may want to check out this service known as www.booksfree.com This service will allow you to read more books without having to buy them or keep them. We all know how books can take up too much space at home.
Booksfree.com has a list of 79,800 books and 18,000 audio books that members can choose from. To avail of the service, you will need to pay the membership fee and depending on the plan that you choose, you can rent anywhere from 2 to 12 books at a time. Membership fees range from a low USD 9.99 to USD 37.99.
It will take Booksfree.com 5 to 10 business days to send you the books that you choose. You can read the book for as long as you like and when you are done, you can send them back in the prepaid return mailer. They likewise have an option wherein you can purchase the book that you rented if you like it a lot!
Do check them out. I wonder when there will be a similar service in the Philippines?

dito naman sa amin we have a public library, libre din sya and you get to enjoy the book or audio or videos for a month. i was even surprised when they didnt even ask for IDs for registration. my two girls are now enjoying the benefit of this service. and i get freebies too when it comes to english books kasi daw nobody asks for them, so they give those english books to me as a gift 😀
From Angel: Wow, ang sarap naman. But I guess this will work for people who live near that library. =) Am so glad for you and for your girls. Thanks for dropping by again.
