77 cookbooks for all tastes is today's Kindle Deal of the Day, with prices ranging from 99 cents to $2.99. Most of the titles included are in the Everything series, such as
The Everything Gluten-Free Cookbook ($1.99) or the 101 series, such as
101 Things to Do with Rotisserie Chicken ($0.99), but there are also a number of titles on Vegan cooking, desserts, cakes and cake decorating, as well as the one I selected to illustrate here,
Farm Fresh Flavors: 501 Delicious Meals using Local Ingredients ($1.99). If you are a cookbook collector, you might even want to just buy the ones that look interesting, rather than get samples, as that would give you a week to make up your mind (and return for a refund if you decide it doesn't work), as well as let you actually see some of the recipes (which samples often don't do), as there are so many titles in today's deal that you'd be hard pressed to look thru them in one afternoon.
Deal Description

Spenser series by Robert B. Parker, is the Kindle Deal of the day for those in the UK (the
US edition is $9.99).
Book Description
Private Detective Spenser is on his easiest job yet. Art professor Ashton Prince has hired him to help recover a stolen painting. The thieves will return it in exchange for a ransom. All Spenser has to do is accompany Prince, just in case. And collect his fee. But, as Prince walks away from the exchange towards Spenser's car carrying the wrapped painting, it explodes. Prince is gone, and with him, Spenser's cash. Starting to investigate, Spenser discovers Prince's past is far from squeaky clean, but nothing warrants going to such unusual lengths to kill him. Who did it, and why?
The Confident Woman: Start Today Living Boldly and Without Fear (
$2.99 Kindle,
B&N), by Joyce Meyer, is the Nook Daily Find, price matched on Kindle.
Book Description
What keeps women from being their best? Joyce has been helping women better themselves by helping identify emotional barriers and physical, mental, and spiritual obstacles in their lives for years. Now she provides another answer-confidence.
Our society has an insecurity epidemic, women in particular. Compensating by pretending to be secure-a common response-only leads to feelings of shame. Lack of self-confidence causes great difficulty in relationships of all kinds, and in marriage instances can even lead to divorce.
In THE CONFIDENT WOMAN, Joyce explores the seven characteristics of a woman with confidence, which include a woman who knows she is loved, who refuses to live in fear, and who does not live by comparisons. Joyce explains that confidence stems from being positive in your actions and living honestly, but most importantly from having faith, in God and in ourselves.
Demons of the Ocean (

Twins, Connor and Grace, never dreamed that there was any truth to the Vampirate shanty their father sang to them before he died, but that was before the two were shipwrecked and separated from each other. For Connor, who is taken aboard a pirate ship, there's the chance to learn to swordfight, but for Grace, aboard a mysterious ship of vampire pirates, the danger is great. What will it take for them to find each other?
