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

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

I wanted to create an account but the site refused to accept my card. I was sent an incredibly fiddly work-around which was more hassle than it was worth. Eventually created an account with Pay Pal.... See more

I don't always buy one of the books, because it's not easy to find reading time; but I really enjoy looking over the latest offerings.

I love BookBub and have found many great bios and great authors through them ! I look forward to my email to see what great new find will be there when I open it. I have also recommended it to several people who have all enjoyed it greatly.

Great service!

I have ordered many titles since joining BookBub It's a wonderful service. My only complaint has to do with some of the deplorable editing in some of the books. I have a particular grievance against run-on sentences. I guess that's not BookBub's fault, but if you can do anything about poor grammar in your titles, I'd appreciate it.
Thank you.

Occasionally offers suggestions that are simply not attractive to me, probably, I suspect, because I looked at something in the offered genre and the algorithm picked up on something new. Disturbingly, though, it continues to make similar offers for too long a time.

Love it

Love it. I get books from all my favorite authors as well as many new authors, for lots less money or free.

Novels at big discounts

I enjoy bookbub because it locates the type of novels I like at discount prices.t I gave it 4 stars because I wish it would limit the selections it shows me to the type of books I like, rather that having to plow through romance novels, cozy mysteries and other genres I have no interest in.

BookBub has provided many good reading selections to me. There have been the occasional clunkers but, overall, I have had good results from their recommendations. I always welcome the daily lists of great bargains that they send to me. Keep the good work going and I will keep reading. Thank you.
