New Read My Book Widget for Facebook

We've released a new Facebook widget which allows readers to preview a sample of your book right on your Facebook fan page. Author Emily Kinney who was one of the first to set up the new widget wrote in to say,

"I've had a Facebook page for my book, The Island of Lote, for a while, but I couldn't post excerpts. The only version I had on my computer was a PDF file, and, as it turns out, those don't like to be copy and pasted. I had to send people to Amazon or Bookbuzzr to read a sample in an excellent format. I looked all over for a "Look Inside" app or widget for my Facebook pages, but it just didn't seem to exist. It was extremely frustrating, and it didn't make a lot of sense. The idea seemed ridiculously obvious to me. So imagine my overwhelming joy and delight when Bookbuzzr offered it. I pounced. It's so great. Now when someone likes either of my pages, I don't have to send them on a journey to get a taste of my book. The format is just like the widget on the Bookbuzzr website, and still has all the social sharing, info on the author, links to videos and interviews and reviews; it's all there. Plus, a really snazzy scroll intro. I love it. I'm so happy! My eternal thanks, Bookbuzzr!"


The widget is available at no extra cost to all BookBuzzr subscribers. Learn more about the widget here - Read My Book Widget

What Authors Are Saying About BookBuzzr

"The BookBuzzr widget is an innovative tool that can add a little spark to your website, blog, email signature or Facebook fan page. It gives instant access to as much of your book as you wish - a tantalizing snippet, whole sections, or the book in its entirety. The widget is similar to the 'look inside' gadget on Amazon except with the BookBuzzr widget you have the control. I've found it a really clever and effective way of reaching out to my readers. Top this off with a fast, helpful and ingenious support team, and how could I do anything but recommend?"


"The games are nice. I like the opportunity to give away and win free books, and it provides me with another avenue to publicize my book."
