Fwd: Your ebook bargains for Sunday

I joined BookBub about 6 months ago after hearing about it.  Many of the offerings are not to my taste but it often has something of interest.  The books that are said to be "free" are usually part of the Kindle Unlimited program that allows Kindle users to borrow up to 10 of the e-books in the program for unlimited time.  Many good books are part of that program.  I am sending this out today because it contains an offer that is probably only good for today for the 10% Happier book by Dan Harris.  His is not the only book on meditation and may not even be the best one but it is one of the best, covers lots of ground in a non-religious way that can be maximally open to all.  And today it is again on sale, as it was the other day, for $2 in download form.  Normally, I only send something out once a day but this deal will probably not last.
