Zola Books
Zola Books is a social eBook retailer that launched on September 20, 2012. It is described by the Washington Post as "a venture whose strategy is to combine all three of the e-book world’s major market functions — retailing, curation and social-networking — in an ambitious bid to become a one-stop destination for book lovers on the Web"
The site currently sells six eBook exclusives: ''The Accidental Victim ''by James Reston Jr., Isaac Marion's ''The New Hunger'', ''Making Mavericks'' by surfer Frosty Hesson, ''The Chemickal Marriage'' by Gordon Dahlquist, ''Autumn Leaves'' by comic Annabelle Gurwitch and ''The Time Traveler's Wife'' by Audrey Niffenegger. The company will soon start selling eBooks from a variety of different publishers.〔http://news.zolabooks.com/welcome-to-zola-books/〕 The social aspects of the website come from the ability to follow authors, publishers and other readers,〔http://publishingperspectives.com/2012/10/zola-e-book-store-puts-publishers-up-front/〕 read book lists created by them, and see what friends are reading and where they highlight or mark passages in a book. The site also features publishing news, exclusive author Q&As, and a large amount of book reviews. Zola is supportive of independent bookstores and provides them with storefronts on the site and a way for customers to pledge their allegiance to a certain store so that store receives money from all of that customer's purchases on the site.
The name Zola comes from the idea of including everything from Z to A on the website and being like Amazon but backwards.〔http://www.digitalbookworld.com/2012/zola-aims-to-replace-google-books-then-take-on-amazon/〕
