Summer Reading: More Books for Your Buck


Summertime is here, and hopefully that means more time for leisure activities…like reading of course! But if you’re anything like me you can whip through a paperback in two or three days, which means reading can become an expensive habit. The good news is that many major publishers have gone the extra mile to give readers a wide variety of inexpensive books this summer.
