Thanks for stopping by, but it appears you are using a (very) old address for my blog. I've moved to a Wordpress site and you'll need to update your bookmarks for Books on the Knob

    ...Rewards Dollars work exactly like cash in our bookshop

Note that last bit -- at Books on Board, unlike Fictionwise and eReader, reward dollars act just like cash. This means you can use them to purchase books that offer 100% rewards without spending any more money (just use your current rewards balance) and you get the entire amount credited back to your account. This lets you buy hundreds of dollars in books with the same $20 to $50 in rewards (it's easier with a larger rewards balance, as you can buy more than one book at a time). New rewards books go up on the site every Monday evening (same as at Fictionwise - but there you must pay by credit card or paypal for 100% rewards books). Like Fictionwise, Books on Board supports several e-reading formats, including mobi formats that work on the Kindle. Often books are priced similarly on the two sites, but available in different formats, so be sure to check both sites on this sale weekend.
