Try out the first-of-its kind free online library that offers great genres, discussion forums and book exchange opportunities
So, you're the nerd who misses out on all the action while your friends go mall-hopping, thanks to your fixation with that corner bookstore. Save those times to freak out; a unique online library will make sure you can catch up with the kitaabi keeda in you while surfing idly at home, and get the best of the world of words for free. We took a trip through Wordbuffs.com, and emerged worms well-fed.
They've got it all
There were books, reviews and conversations galore.u00a0 Genres comprise fiction, non-fiction, books for children and older readers, travelogues, cookbooks, memoirs and romantic paperbacks. Versatile authors make their spread rich and alluring. The likes of Agatha Christie, Amitav Ghosh, Anita Desai, Arthur Conan Doyle, and Barbara Robinson among others take to the Web with an elegant ease. "The idea stemmed from the vast collection of books I have. When my kids and I are done with reading, we've no idea what to do with them.
That's when it struck," smiles Geetanjalee Krishna, owner, who can't wait to have more readers over.
The home page contains an array of interesting features, which include sections like Editor's Picks, Did you know, latest reviews and bestsellers. There are essentially two kinds of memberships to choose from: Bookswap and Book Review. The former offers you a chance to swap five books with the website (which will be delivered at your residence) at a time, while the latter allows you to review books.u00a0

The discussion board is a buzzing place where Wordbuffs air their news and views. You can post a new topic if there's something you would like to discuss, or post your reply to an existing post. "Our basic aim is to make the website as interactive as possible. The next step is to take the bookswap membership outside the capital and also introduce author forums and columns in the future", signs off Geetanjalee.
