BookSwim.com Is Netflix For Books!

BookSwim is the first and only national online service that rents paperback and hardcover books Netflix-style, including new releases, bestsellers and classics, without the need to purchase them.

BookSwim ships the books to readers, who can keep them for as long as they like with no late fees. After a book is returned, the next book is sent - with free shipping in 100% recycled plastic bags both ways. The site is also now offering digital gift cards starting at $9.95 per month. For every gift card sold, BookSwim, in association with Eco-Libris, will plant a tree to offset the environmental impact of producing paper for books - BookSwim estimates that 20 million trees are cut down every year for American book production!.
