If you’re anything like me, you probably have a lot of books sitting around your house that you never get around to reading. And with the new year coming up, it’s the perfect time to start fresh and purge your collection. But what do you do with all of those old books? Well, one option is to donate them to a charity or library. But if you’re like me and don’t have the time or energy to go through and pick out which books to donate, then canceling your Barnes and Noble membership might be the better option for you. Barnes and Noble is a great resource for book lovers, but their membership service can be a bit pricey. Plus, their selection can be a little limited in some cases. So if you’re not using their service or if you just don’t need it anymore, canceling your membership might be the best decision for you. ..
