Just discovered a blog that is already proving to be helpful. It’s Biswomen which has a women’s business books category.
In addition to reviewing books there are also gems like: Orman’s “Women & Money” book downloaded 1.1M times in free period. The post points out that the Orman’s book remained number 2 on Amazon even during the free download version, leading to the thought that free or even fee ebooks don’t necessarily hurt sales.
That’s worth thinking about.
