While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

Overall opinion of Book Bub

Books are received in a timely manner and selection overall is very good.
Don't look for very current books here, but nonetheless a good selection.

Not a fan of the "series" marketing strategy

Nice to see a variety of offerings. My primary complaint is that so many books, while a bargain, are part of a series requiring further purchases. I am not a fan of this marketing strategy, so I often avoid these titles altogether. Also, many of the selections are poorly edited, and, in my opinion, not well written which leads to disappointment for the reader.

Bookbub is great!

I like Bookbub because it shows me new books to look at and decide if I may want to read them. There are all genres to choose from based on choices that the subscriber can set up. Overall I find it very useful. I also find ebooks at a great price.

Love BookBub!

BookBub is a great place to get books and at reasonable prices. I usually order crime fiction or thrillers and sometimes they come in a series which I love to purchase. I'm an avid reader and it's great ordering books from BookBub .to put on my Kindle, there's always a book waiting for me.

I have been using Book Bub for many years. I read from my kindle and I love that I can get special offers, including free books and $.99 books. Some of which are entire series. The cool thing is that you can read authors you have never read and discover their writing style, then decide whether or not you want to follow them and read more of their work without breaking the bank!
