For the past year, I’ve been working with a group of 120 bestselling authors to create a new platform for book discovery called BingeBooks (tagline: “Find your next great read”). It launched not long ago, so I wanted to fill you in about how it works and why it fills a gap in the marketplace.

If you head over to BingeBooks and register (for free), you’ll be able to do quite a few cool things:

• • Read the opening chapters of tens of thousands of bestselling books from traditional and indie authors — on any device

  • Browse the full collection of books of nearly any author in an easy-to-use interface

  • If they write in series, you can see all their series books in order

  • Ask questions and interact with authors

  • Create visually stunning book lists

  • Join book groups

  • Organize your digital book life

  • Read and write book recommendations

  • Buy what you enjoy, with quick links to retailers for print books, e-books and audiobooks.

  • Find trending deals and discover new releases
