Many people aren't aware that there are several other perks of joining a book club that don't just revolve around the discounted prices. Though most book clubs offer up to 70% off of publisher edition prices, there are also several resources and tools that book clubs offer to assist reading enthusiasts. Offered through both the book club website and magazine, which is shipped directly to member homes, these perks are complimentary and available to all members as soon as they sign up.
One of the greatest advantages to being in a book club are the several book specials or deals they offer each month. Depending on the club, there can be weekly or monthly specials based on genre, author, subject matter or new releases. Members can also acquire points, based on the number of purchases they make, which can be applied to purchases in the future.
Another perk of being a member of a book club is all the insider advice and information members receive. On top of exclusive book excerpts and author interviews, members can also post and read book reviews and recommendations. Reading reviews beforehand can really help readers decide whether or not they're truly interested in purchasing a title. Not just a typical online club, book clubs are a community of book lovers organized by editors who enjoy reading as much as their members.
Convenience is one of the main reasons that readers join book clubs. Not only do they have access to the club through the Internet, but through the book club magazine as well. Many people don't like the hassle of having to go to a crowded bookstore and search through shelves and shelves of random titles. With a book club, members can search easily with a search engine tool online and find exactly what they're looking for. There are also several genre searches available to help them find the kind of book they'd enjoy reading.
Book club members also know about new releases long before the general public. After they receive word that a new book will be released, they can often pre-order the title and sometimes may even be able to receive a copy in advance. Members also have the opportunity to receive books that stores no longer carry. With genre-specific book clubs, members can search for older titles that interest them and would not be available in a store or elsewhere online for such low prices.
Book clubs aren't just online stores, they're a community of reading enthusiasts looking to get the most out of their hobby. Though the prices are incentive enough, joining a book club opens up several possibilities for different resources and perks that you would be unable to find in a large bookstore. On top of percentages off publisher editions, members also receive access to special sales, member points, exclusive excerpts, author interviews and information as well as rare titles and new release information. All complimentary, these extra benefits are just the icing on the cake and all the more reason to join a book club today.
