BABBLING BOOKS

Tigerlily

We've joined up with Amazon to create our own bookstore - woo!

To access the store, please visit: http://astore.amazon.co.uk/babblingbooks-21

Or scroll down to the bottom of this page.

We've designed the shop so that you can view all books we've discussed or are about to discuss without having to type in a search. So if you can't get hold of our chosen books via RISI, you can visit our BB shop to browse for books instead.

You can also browse the whole Amazon store too.

BB earns 5-10% cash back on all purchases made through the store, so all monies received will be used to fund BB competition prizes.

Which means we'll be able to offer you better prizes.

We'll keep you in touch with how we're getting on.

Please note that if you are buying from the Marketplace or buying with vouchers (paying for full order with vouchers), no money gets donated to the site. We only get anything if you actually buy gift vouchers or pay for your order by card.

Got my first BB order in! How do they calculate the % BB will receive - do individual orders have to be over a certain amount or is it cumulatative (sp?)

Thanks Treez

We receive 5% of the order price (exc. p+p). We're already over the £2 mark - Woo!

Thanks Em, that's much appreciated. We've earned over £20 now so we'll be able to have some good comps in the new year.

No worries misty - we'll need funds throughout the year

Annoying it doesn't work when using vouchers!

I ordered The Testament of Gideon Mack by James Robertson. I really enjoyed his book The Fanatic, and this one is in R&J's book club so I thought I would read it before all the hype kicked off. I don't buy new books that often, but made an exception in this case - it wasn't that expensive anyway. I will let you know if it is any good.

If you'd prefer to buy and/or browse items via Amazon (rather than Babbling Bookstore), you can now click on the link above (under the news ticker) and Amazon will open in a new window. Any purchases you make after clicking on the link will help the Babbling Books cause

No worries, Blueflower - you don't have to shop via the store. Any of the Amazon links you see on BB will help
