What is Paperspine?

From the website: Paperspine is a subscription-based service for renting books. Pick out the books you want to read and we mail them to you based on availability. You decide which books you want to receive first by prioritizing them in your book Queue. It’s that easy!  When you’re done with the book, mail it back to us in our pre-paid mailing bags. When we receive the returned book, we’ll send out the next available book in your Queue. Sounds as though Paperspine has the same model as Netflix:   

  • Create a list of books you want to read

  • They mail you books from the list

  • Keep the book as long as you want. No late fees.

  • Return the books and they will send you more.

 Plans begin at $9.95 per month. I have to say that I like this idea. Especially for the winter months when I don’t want to leave the house.
