Deal of the Week: Tragedy at Two, Dead In Red, Lost Summer of Louisa May Alcott

As I surf the Web for book deals, I share my favorite purchases with you. I am not affiliated with any of the companies in this post.

Any fans of writer Ann Purser? Her ninth book in the Lois Meade series, Tragedy at Two, was released in December. I bought a new hardback copy from PBS Market for $3.09 and one credit. As of press time they still have copies available. Amazon wants $16.29 for the same book so this is a good buy.

My next deal is an autographed copy of Dead in Red written by L.L. Bartlett. You can buy a new copy directly from the author, before it goes out of print, for $14.00 which includes postage (compared to $23.12 on Amazon). This Agatha Award nominee also has a popular Booktown Mystery series written under the name Lorna Barrett.

I've been looking for a deal on The Lost Summer of Louisa May Alcott by Kelly O'Connor McNees. The best value so far is from Strand Books in New York City. They are selling new copies for $12.47 (postage extra). When I checked this morning there were 8 books left.

Did you find any deals this week?

Deal of the Week: The Man Who Loved Books Too Much

I purchased a new copy this morning of The Man Who Loved Books Too Much by Alison Bartlett for $3.09. Considering that Amazon wants $16.47 for the book and Barnes and Noble is asking $19.96, this is my deal of the week.

Details: Paperback Swap is now selling new overstocked books. When I went to add this book to my wish-list on their site, I was told I could buy a new copy. This really made my day because I missed entering Suzanne's contest on Chick with Books.

Price: To get the $3.09 deal it cost 1 credit (otherwise the book was $6.49).

Shipping: $3.45 plus 50 cent transaction fee; total: $7.04.

What's your best deal of the week?
