Just to help keep our humble little website up and running. BRETTnews is a labor of love but there are expenses involved. So we decided to become a BarnesandNoble.com affiliate. We think it's better than subjecting you to intrusive ad banners throughout our peppy little webzine, and we hope you'll agree. If you do, stop by the BRETTnews Book Nook whenever you're in the market for reading material. When you get to the Barnes & Noble website through a link from the Book Nook, we make a few cents on every book you purchase. The books needn't even have been featured at BRETTnews -- our recommendations are just a way of making you aware of books that we think you'd like.

So if you enjoy BRETTnews and would like to help it continue to thrive, make a regular habit of visiting the Book Nook before making your online book purchases.
