Thursday3Some: 3 Free Sampler Books

Do you grab free sampler books when they're available? If not, you should.

Sampler books are a great way to find authors whose styles you just may love. Each sample included is usually the first chapter of a book.

After that first chapter, you probably know whether or not you like the story and the author's voice.

No need to buy a book that you may not like--or buy one only to return it--which makes the author feel bad when he/she studies her sales reports. *g*

My friends and I on Authors Billboard--all of whom are either New York Times or USA Today or national bestselling authors (or all of the above)--have now released 6 sampler books that we call Book Bites.
