Just in case youse guise haven't noticed, the worthwhile Free or Discounted book offerings at BB & DFB have really dried up over the past two months, while the dreck written by hacks has increased exponentially.

What's even more galling is that BB keeps offering books/authors from up to fifty years back and the asking price usually floats between the $3 USD-$4 mark; which is patently absurd, especially since they're so readily available at libraries and Used Book stores.

I'll keep looking for all of us until the end of February, but if I don't see a major uptick in quality, I'll be giving them the boot.

They used to offer some "Tres El Neato junque" several months back, but it seems that those days may be gone…
