Bargain books from BookBub
If you’re an avid reader like me who devours books like bars of Diary Milk, then BookBub should be your new best friend.
It’s a daily special-offers service for ebooks which sends you a personalised email every day packed with recommendations tailored to you – at bargain prices.
Since signing up, I have read hundreds of books and found a love for new authors and different genres without forking out lots of money.
Every day you’ll get a new email packed with discounts on books from small and large publishers and authors, and links to download them in their available electronic formats
Not every book is available in all formats, but BookBub generally tries to include everyone.
Plus, if you only have specific devices, you can choose to only get deals for the stores that support the gadgets you own.
For me it’s my Kindle and my preferred retailer is Amazon.
Some of the discounts are time-restricted, but if something catches your eye, you can select the retailer you prefer, buy it and download it and then start reading it straight away.
When you sign up to receive the emails you pick three to five recommendations from different categories; such as romance, classics, history, sci-fi and so on – there’s loads to choose from.
They’re definitely good deals, with most discounted to 99p, and plenty of free offers too.
I’ve recommended the site to scores of friends who love to read but sometimes like to try new authors or don’t like to carry heavy physical books around with them.
I still love a paperback and nothing beats the smell and feel of a new or old book in your hands but Bookbub is great for bargains and breaking your own boundaries.
You can have a look at some of the books I’ve read over on my Goodreads profile and how I am getting on with my reading challenge.

Oh this sounds like a really good idea! I’m always trying to search for new books and this email would definitely make it easier!
Honestly give it a go. You can choose what genre etc and it’s a chance to try new authors too. Let me know how you get on!
I love the idea of this.. would be so good for me as I love my reading helps keep me calm and relaxed. However I just don’t like the idea of not having the actual book in my hand. 💕
I do both. Have my Kindle for these cheap and free books for quick reads. I still have proper hard and paperbacks x
I love Bookbub, even though they have some interesting picks, you find some gems in there, too.
I’ve found some absolute gems. Thanks for reading 😊
I love Book Bub! I’ve downloaded and enjoyed so many books. Many are from authors that I never would have tried in the past, but the free or 99 cents designation got me over my concerns. If I don’t like a book, I haven’t lost much money on it.
My thoughts exactly Jennifer! I love it 😊
I have not heard of BookBub but must check it out! sounds intriguing for a book lover.
It’s definitely worth checking out! 🙂
I just signed up earlier this week, looking forward to adding to my must read list!
It’s brilliant. I download probably 2-3 books a day. I love my personalised emails – I’m reading authors I’d never think to try.
I enjoy finding new authors so thanks for recommendation & review.
You’re welcome 🙂
As a reader, I love Book Bub. As an author, … another story. All these promo sites (there are a slew; Book Bub is just the best and the most expensive) have conditioned readers to look for price first It’s a conundrum for me. But thanks for the heads up on National Book Lovers Day.
Thanks Janet. I still buy physical books and other e-books outside of BookBub I just like how it’s a way of finding new authors. I often go on to search out more of a certain author’s books after reading one from BookBub.
I’m familiar with GoodReads and a friend mentioned BookBub not so long ago. Can’t say I know much about it Rachael so this post was invaluable for me. Might just try and schedule a time slot to go have a look round now!
I’d definitely recommend checking it out. You get tailored emails to the genre of books you like and then you choose which ones you want to download and where from. It’s really good!
It is now promoted to the to do list! As you mentioned it sounds a good place to easily explore new authors too. Many thank for the insights!
