Hook Up This Book Trailer Site to Find Your Next Read

January 05, 2012

Book trailers are like potato chips, you can't watch just one.

If you haven't watched a book trailer, it's like a video preview of an upcoming or recently published title. Just as flashy and dramatic as their close cousins, movie trailers, book trailers are designed to get you to spend your book-buying dollars. Or, if you're an avid library patron, get that title on your check out list.

Some are created by publishers, others by fans. Either way, book trailers area a great way to spend a little time and maybe find a good read.

Type "book trailer" in YouTube's search field and you'll find a boatload. But if you're looking for something more organized with a little humor mixed in, check out blazingtrailers.com. With Blazing Trailers, you can watch the featured trailers of the day, use the browse option, or literally roll the dice to watch a random trailer plucked from the archives.

Check it out.

I dare you to only watch one.
