I was graduating college and needed a job I could do freelance while looking for something more permanent. I love reading so one day I googled paid book reviews. I still am job hunting but having OBC has helped me get some needed petty cash.

As a kid, I always wanted to be more of independent and earn on my own, so the day I got my mobile, I was looking for ways to earn online. Back then I remember someone telling me that there are a few sites that pay you to read books and as you are fond of reading you may search for them. So, at that time I found various sites that pay you so, I just signed up there including OBC. There was no particular response from the other websites and I being only 16 at that time didn't join OBC as it required a minimum age of 18, but OBC, kept mailing about joining the review team and to start reviewing, and when I became 18 last year, I started reviewing on this site and honestly, this is a mind-blowing site for all the readers!!

I would just say that I feel really really glad and also fortunate to land here in this club. God's grace! :D
The disappearance of the word "I am" is indeed the highest happiness! :)
