The Big Beautiful Based Book Sale
Cheap / Free books
Normally, I would trust Substack’s Cross-Posting on this…
But I just saw what the cross-post did to my attempt the other day… and I seriously hate it, and feel a dire need to fix it.
So, the Big Beautiful Based Book Sale … not the official name, but who cares, this is my site, I can call it what I want. Officially, it is the 2025 Summer
, but do you really care what it’s called? It has free books, and it has $0.99 books, and it is put together by , which is impressive, because he’s probably at LibertyCon… right now, if I had to guess.Here’s the sale, but please wait, there really is more.

In this case, it's a variation on "BasedCon," a right-wing convention out of Michigan. If you’re to the right of Joe Manchin / Fetterman / whatever fake centrist the left has at the moment, you can probably get in. I know of a whole four people who are banned from BasedCon, completely on the foundation that they have been complete and total A-holes.
