Our purpose
BookMarket exists for readers who want more than whatever is trending, and for writers who want more than a listing on a crowded marketplace. We're an independent online bookstore and a publishing platform in one place.
Independent authors can publish their books here, and we keep a free library of public-domain classics, every book clearly labeled, so you can always tell what you're reading.
Principle 01
People arrange our editorial shelves, and nobody can buy a spot on them. When authors disclose AI use, their books carry a clear label.
Principle 02
You set your prices and keep your copyright. On digital sales you keep 100% of net royalties: the sale price minus payment processing fees and sales tax.
Principle 03
Everything you buy is saved to your BookMarket library. Read ebooks in our secure reader right in your browser, or order a print edition printed on demand by Lulu.
Principle 04
No dark patterns at checkout, and we don't sell your personal information. Payments are processed securely by Square.
Company facts
Readers join free. Writers can publish from $17/month.
About BookMarket
The books worth reading are rarely the loudest ones. So we built two things together: a storefront that feels like your favorite independent shop, and a publishing platform that pays writers fairly.
