I highly recommend this book. It is a vampire romance set in 1970. The author takes us into a Celtic mythological history of how vampires came into existence by interweaving it with friends to lovers, a vampire brotherhood, murder, plot twists, characters you will love and plenty of spice with a little humour along the way. I loved Leigh and Michael's story. I can't wait for the next book. I received and advanced reader copy of this book and am voluntarily giving my review of this book.
Two years ago I ran an ad for one of my novels on BookBub. I set a budged of $5/day and it ran with no problems. So on June 15 of this year I decided to create a second ad for my recently released novel. I set an ad budget of $10/day. But within a day or so I received charges from BookBub of $750, (since increased to $760), which had been automatically charged to my PayPal account. I immediately checked the data for the ad and found that my budget of $10/day had been increased to an insane $10,000/day. I contacted BookBub about the error. Their response was, since 'I' had set the budget at $10,000/day, I was stuck with the charges and they were not going to do anything about it, nor refund any of the charges. I don't know how my budget got changed, only that I did not do it. I can only conclude that there is a problem in BookBub's ad-creation program which they refuse to acknowledge. Needless to say, I will not be using BookBub to run ads on. (On a side note, I got exactly one sale for my $760. I did much better with a one-week ad on Facebook for a tenth of the cost.)
The title is fitting because half of the time you can get a good deal and the other half, you're left scratching your head. Being on a budget means that I look for the free books but I do and will often buy books for the rest of the series, IF I can see what it's about. More often than not lately, Book Bub has listed a book as free BUT it is #'s 3, 4, 5 or 6 in a series. Speaking only of myself, I will never buy a whole series (unless Harry Potter) without reading Book 1 first. There's a screenshot of something that I received to show what I mean. Good luck Book Bub.
It's definitely a great for readers but I'm just disappointed by the lack of choices. Every book that's discounted or free is not my genre of book reading. BookBub's a great site but I just don't read the kind of books that it offers.
BookBub is like Groupon for ebooks. Every day you get an email with a new discounted book. They do a pretty good job of selecting interesting books, but that's just my taste, I'm not sure if everyone feels that way (although you get a choose a category that you like). The biggest downside is you get a bunch of emails and ebooks are already so cheap or free. There are literally over 40,000 free Kindle books available so I might spend some time reading those or checking them out on my Amazon prime free check-out library.
