Bookswim Online Book Rental
Combining old tech and new, Bookswim is the first online book rental service that delivers to your door, with no late fees.
Basically, Bookswim uses the Netflix model. You sign up, and choose a plan based on the number of books you want to read each month. Plans start at $9.95.
You make some book selections. They send you a book, and when you return it, you get the next book on your list. Shipping is prepaid in both directions.
If you are a voracious reader, Bookswim has a lot of advantages. It keeps you supplied with new books, and doesn’t clutter your house. The focus here is on Reuse, which is usually better than buying new.
