2 different genres: Monday to Friday Man by Alice Peterson (chicklit) and Perfect People by Peter James (thriller). both have really good reviews.

Yes I use these two sites too.

elkiedee · 26/07/2012 11:45

Two sites I use to spot new bargains as soon as they come up, not all 20p though (but there are only a few of those)

dailycheapreads.co.uk/

ereaderiq.co.uk/

These also show freebies but a lot of these are of limited interest.

NoraHelmer · 26/07/2012 11:12

Anonymous - a good place to start is the kindle bestseller list as they are selling well.

AnonymousBird · 26/07/2012 10:19

Ok, I'm thick. I don't know how to find the cheap books. How do you wade through everything to narrow the lists Dow to either free or low priced books? Suspect it's obvious but I can't work it out!!!

Thx. Smile Confused

It's also completely unbelievable nonsense, so no comparisons to real life Grin

valiumredhead · 19/07/2012 15:17

It really won't make you cry, it's on the edge of your seat thriller not misery lit at all.

igggi · 19/07/2012 15:16

Right, going to buy it to read while bf-ing and if it makes me cry I will be pm-ing you in the middle of the night Valiumredhead!

Handsfullandinamuckingfuddle · 19/07/2012 12:10

Thanks - will download them both now Smile

valiumredhead · 19/07/2012 12:06

Oh very very briefly but that's only the back story iyswim?

AnonymousBird · 19/07/2012 12:03

igggi - you and me both! I have bought it at 20p, but was rather hesitant for the same reasons....

igggi · 19/07/2012 11:37

Wellll, now you mention it...
I thought was about couple whose child had died, didn't fancy that. Will have a look.

valiumredhead · 19/07/2012 10:41

It's a thriller -no misery. I love books where I can't work out what will happen next and I have no clue how it will end up.

Unless your 4 year old is a psychotic genius iggi there is no cause for alarm Wink

igggi · 19/07/2012 10:25

As mother of a 4 year old, I decided to give Perfect People a miss - too much misery potential!

valiumredhead · 19/07/2012 08:58

Re Perfect People, it is refreshing to read a Kindle book without shocking spelling mistakes/poor editing.

AnonymousBird · 19/07/2012 08:57

Have bought Perfect People, though not sure how well the subject matter is going to sit with me. But reviews are good, so for 20p, nothing to lose!

If anyone spots any more, please do tell!!!

igggi · 18/07/2012 23:24

I've just finished My daughter My mother. Very interesting - account of two young women with relationship problems and gradually you learn about about their mothers, an evacuee and a child at the time of partition in India respectively.
Very surprised to get a decent read for 20p!

ClaireBunting · 15/07/2012 07:57

I read Perfect People - enjoyed it.

valiumredhead · 14/07/2012 19:25

I'm reading Perfect People too - very easy to read, enjoying it so far.

edam · 12/07/2012 21:47

Thanks - I hadn't heard about the 20p deals, just picked up the Hollinghurst, Peterson and James.

Samroo · 12/07/2012 21:39

Apparently the books are to price match the 20p deals on with Googleplay. I do love competition when it favours my pocket!

elkiedee · 05/07/2012 17:56

I think the 20p books stand out more than the free books because there are less of them, and the 20p offers are mostly from a couple of quite mainstream publishers.

NoraHelmer · 05/07/2012 17:24

I have just subscribed to this website which alerts you to the 20p deals on Amazon kindle daily cheapreads.co.uk.

fivefoottwowitheyesofblue · 04/07/2012 22:41

Many thanks OP!

I luff my kindle. Especially loaded with 20p books!

VivaLeBeaver · 04/07/2012 22:31

Thanks, got the Peter James and the idiot abroad books.

TheLightPassenger · 04/07/2012 22:26

The Stranger's Child by Alan Hollinghurst is now 20p.
