Barnes and Noble sure is excited about their new Nook eBook reader.  And they want you to be excited as well.  So, they are giving awat five free books this summer to Nook users…or the B&N ereader app.  Here is what you need to do to get your free books:

1. Download the free B&N eBook Reader app to your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad (still no word on the arrival of the iPad optimized ereader app)  Or skip the download and grab your Nook.
2. Visit your local Barnes & Noble store and wave your Nook or B&N ereader app like a madman until one of the clerks acknowledges you and rewards your efforts with a voucher.
3. Head on over to the Barnes & Noble website to redeem your voucher.

Come in between now and May 23, and you will receive a free copy of Alexander McCall Smith’s The Number 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency.  Keep coming back as the book selection changes every few weeks.
