Book Mooch

Posted by: Dave In: Books | Web

Love books?

Have a lot of books but not a lot of money?

You should check out Book Mooch. It’s an online book trading website. You offer up books for trade and earn credits to aquire books from other book moochers. Cheap, simple and easy.

Just like me.

True, a library is cheaper. However, you actually own the book when you get it through book mooch. And it’ a good option for people who don’t have easy access to a library (ie. remote location, too old or too young to drive, handicapped, etc.).

It also seemed like a cool service for book lovers to find possibly hard-to-find books in one part of the country that may be easy to get in another.
