It seems that during many of the hours I spend working, playing, taking care of others and just taking care of business, I'd much rather be curled up reading a book. And it would be a whole lot easier to spend more time reading if I could spend less time finding books. Here are some sites that bring the best book selections to you:

BarnesandNoble.com is an obvious first stop. The site has just been redesigned for easier browsing and the visuals are pretty impressive too. Find everything from the very latest releases to time-tested classics and shop music, toys and games as well. Read book reviews, watch video of famous authors, discuss books in online forums and a whole lot more. You'll earn a 2% ConsumerClub.com rebate as you shop here.

BAMM.com offers great savings on popular books, including the new "Staying Young: The Owner's Manual for Extending Your Warranty" by doctors Michael R. Roizen and Mehmet C. Oz. Books-a-Million even has a personal shopper service that can help you find the right book for yourself or someone special. It's also a wonderful place to earn another 2% rebate from ConsumerClub.com.

Prefer to curl up in front of the fire and simply listen to a good book on your sound system? Go straight to Audible.com, where your first three months of best sellers can be bought for a mere $7.49 a month. And there are 40,000 titles to choose from. You'll also earn a 7% ConsumerClub.com rebate on all your purchases here.
