Came across this website a few weeks back when searching for Telugu novels. I was really excited about this portal as I always wanted to own Telugu books of my own. I wanted to share with information on Teluglobe but decided to buy first and ordered 3 books of Yandamuri. They charged me $12 and took about 3 weeks to deliver. Finally, yesterday I got the mail. Now I am planning to order more and here are the points that impressed me.

- except for shipping, you are not paying any thing extra towards book price.
- As per the website, it is a non profit organization and what ever we buy is actually helping author, Telugu language and literature.
- Very very big collection of titles.
- Simple process to order and it accepts Paypal and it is reliable.
The below are my order for this month. The shipping is justified by the weight of the shipment. Use Auther search or title search and so far works fine for me.

ఈ సైట్ లో మనం ఊహించనన్ని పుస్తకాలు దొరుకుతాయి.. కాని, దీనిని re-design చెయ్యాల్సిన అవసరం ఉంది. మనకి కావాల్సిన పుస్తకం దొరకబుచ్చుకోవడం కొన్ని సార్లు చాలా కష్టం అవుతుంది. సైట్ నిర్వాహకులు గమనించగలరు.
ఇదే ఊపులో, కోతికొమ్మచ్చి శబ్ద పుస్తకాలు ఇక్కడ: http://www.kothikommachi.com/
Thanks so much for the link! I always wanted to buy and read some telugu books, but I thought it was possible only on an India visit.
