**

Folks, I often don't open my laptop until noon or later. Since my timezone is GMT+7, that's awfully late for anyone in Europe, and these posts are fairly useless.

BUT! Note that there's a "subscribe" button at the top of the Early Bird Books page. If you subscribe, you'll get a daily email that lists a dozen or so discounted books, as well as early notification of these massive sales. (This one hit my inbox at 5:20 A.M.)

Also check out Bookbub -- https://www.bookbub.com/ If you sign up, you select the genres you like to read and your seller of choice. Then you get a daily email with approximately 15 to 30 discounted books in your selected genres. Bookbub doesn't have the massive sales like Early Bird Books, but often there are 3 or 4 titles "free" in the daily list. (At least, in the Romance genre.)

As always, feel free to share this post or info wherever you choose. Happy reading!

Cozy the Day Away, a flash sale for Cozy Fantasy books, is running again for two days this weekend, Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th October.

This time, there are more than 150 books in the sale, with many new authors (and new titles from authors who were in previous sales.)

The sale includes ebooks, paperbacks, audiobooks and bundles.

A strong focus on diversity: LGBTQIA+, neurodiversity, global majority/PoC characters, mental and physical disabilities, all represented.

A wide variety of genres, including romantasy, cozy mysteries, paranormal and urban fantasy and action/adventure.

Many ebooks are 99p/99c (or even free) and there are steep discounts on other formats.

"Giant" is their description, not mine, but they tout 1,500 books on sale.

Note that you can select different retailers in the top drop-down menu, and specific genres in the list to the left.

Sale ends at "midnight." They never say which midnight, but I suspect it's one of the U.S timezones, which are UTC-5 to UTC-8.

Pass this on wherever you like.

As in the title. Sale ends at midnight; I assume USA Eastern time (GMT -5, I believe). Links to all the booksellers -- Amazon, Apple, B&N, Google, Kobol.

Happy reading!

ETA: Jesse_the_k notes that "This is a meta-search engine, compiling deals from Amazon, Apple, Barnes & Noble, Google and Kobo." I didn't realize that was note-worthy, but yeah. Whatever platform you use to read, you're covered.

For 99 cents, a selection of Cozy mysteries, and some series. As far as I can tell, the sale ends Saturday at midnight, USA mountain time, Greenwich -7. (There's a countdown clock on my page. I have no idea if that's adjusted for different time-zones, or the same for everyone.) Happy reading.

...is going on now through March 8th! This is a great time to get a bunch of books on sale (or even free) and support indie authors. Leave your recommendations for authors/books on sale in the comments ->

Edit: Oh, and a note about how Smashwords author royalties work (from r/MM_RomanceBooks):

About author payouts, per Smashwords policy: They pay authors and publishers up to 80% of list price or more when the customer's cart total is over $9.00.

So, if you have a bunch of free or cheap books in your cart, try to make sure your total is at least $9 so that the author gets the maximum payout possible.

What the title says. Books are 99 cents, but I can't find when the sale ends. The site also warns that some may not be on sale outside the U.S and U.K.

Hmm... at the bottom of the site, there's a countdown clock of 4-1/2 days -- but I'm not sure if that's the book sale or the promotional give-away for winning a free Kindle.

Regardless, if light mysteries with quirky characters are your jam (I think Cozy demands quirky characters), check it out soon.

As far as I can tell, the sale runs all the way to midnight at the end of Sunday -- but it may be different in other time-zones; you'll have to check. Regardless, you have time to stock up if cozy mysteries are your jam.

Anyway -- a bunch of Cozy mysteries on sale. I counted 20, with 3 multi-book collections available.

The given link goes to Amazon, but if you click on the book cover, you can select different book sellers. Also, the site notes that "Some Books May Not Be On Sale Outside the U.S."

Feel free to share this info, or link to the post.

Smashwords Launches Initiatives to Help Readers and Authors Cope with Covid-19 Pandemic:

Several of our authors contacted me in recent days, asking if I'd consider running a special sale where they could make their books more accessible and affordable to readers suffering in self-imposed or government-mandated isolation. These authors wanted to help fellow readers gain strength, comfort or entertainment from the power of their books.

In this context, any book that brings the reader precious moments of joy - whether a romance, a thriller or a non-fiction treatise about boosting your immune system - is critically important to the global recovery effort.

With this heartfelt intention in mind, today we launched our Authors Give Back sale, running now through April 20. For the next 30 days, thousands of Smashwords authors are going the extra mile to share their books with the readers who need them.

The sale catalog can be found here.

Anyone have recommendations for authors or books to pick up during the sale? I'll leave some of mine in the comments.

The Kobo Mini is on sale until July 18, for $40+shipping.

5" touchscreen (smaller than most ereaders)
1GB user-available storage
Available in black or white
8 font styles with 24 font sizes
EPUB, PDF, JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIFF, TXT, (X)HTML, RTF, CBZ, CBR
Pearl E-Ink screen (long battery life, B&W only)
Various cloud and internet features that I know nothing about

Technical specs

I've ordered one. I'll post a review when it shows up. This may be the ereader I've been waiting for. (Well, except for touchscreen, which I don't like, but for $40 I'm certainly willing to give it a try.)

ETA: Kobo apparently has problems with double-billing; I checked my purchase, which had an authorization error at first, and sure enough, I've been billed twice. I've sent an email to try to get it fixed; if that doesn't work, I can contact my bank to contest the charges. Just a warning for people whose money is tight--if you get an auth error, DO NOT attempt to repeat the purchase right away.
