NetGalley

Came across a great site the other day -- NetGalley.

Their own description is best: "NetGalley is an innovative and easy-to-use online service and connection point for book publishers, reviewers, media, librarians, booksellers, bloggers and educators.

NetGalley delivers digital galleys and promotional materials to professional readers and helps promote new and upcoming titles. Using NetGalley, publishers can build communities, invite contacts to view galleys and promotional materials, and track who has viewed their titles.

Professional readers--reviewers, media, journalists, bloggers, librarians, booksellers and educators--can join and use NetGalley at no cost."

I've looked at a couple books and wrote a very short review of a cookbook, Perfect One-dish Dinners, which I liked a lot. Good recipes without a lot of fuss with great pictures.

Supposedly some of the galleys can be downloaded to a Kindle. I've requested some fiction books in hopes of trying this download. We'll see.
