UK Pre-loved giveaway - The Thinking Tank by Jae De Wylde

PRE LOVED GIVEAWAY

UK ONLY

Well as promised I am offering this lovely book as a pre-loved giveaway. I have only read it once and it is in excellent condition.

I am sorry but at this time it can only be a UK giveaway due to the increase in postage costs. I will offer international giveaways of a different nature at another time.

Please see under the tab for the giveaway conditions. I would prefer that you are a follower of my blog and on facebook, but it's not compulsory.

This giveaway ends Friday 2nd August.

Please leave me a comment and let me know how you found out about the giveaway.

The winner reader will be picked at random by random.org.

THANKS FOR READING.

As I'm a bit behind with my blogging I have several book reviews coming soon. I will also be doing a pre-loved giveaway.

My book reviews will include:-
The Missing - by Karl Vadaszffy
Fifty Shades of Grey - E L James (yes I had to read it to see what the fuss was about!)
Uphill all the Way - Sue Moorcroft
All that Mullarkey - Sue Moorcroft
Buck Fever - Ben Rehder
Full Circle - Irina Shapiro

and more.......
Watch this space.

World Book Night Giveaway - Fingersmith

I have a copy of the World Book Night Edition of "Fingersmith" by Sarah Waters, to giveaway. It has never been read, and has a unique identifiable number linked to bookcrossing. 

This giveaway has been extended from end of May to the end of June 2011.


I am offering this to the 1st follower who can get me 5 more followers, that are still with me by the end of June. All you have to do at the end of the Month is give me the names of the 5 followers you have recommended and the book is yours.


I have no other rules apart from that one. I am happy to ship internationally so you don't have to be a UK follower. 
The only other thing I ask is that you go to BookCrossing when you receive the book and acknowledge on there that you are the new owner as all these books were issued with individual identification numbers, so that World Book Night organisers and the author, can track where their books ended up.


Thanks and good luck!

Countdown to my cruise

I am on a countdown now to my Cruise around the Western Mediterranean in June. I am organising my kindle so that I have all the books I could need. Mind you I have around 300+ on there and somehow don't think I'll be getting through them all! Even I can't read that quick.

My cabin is on the same deck as the library! Pure co-incidence I can assure you. So a little trip to that will be in order too. I did wonder about taking some books to BookCross too, but then there's the little matter of baggage allowance. To me 20kg is not enough when you're on a cruise and want to take outfits for all occasions! I am known to be a lover of shoes, so I am going to have to be very strict with myself.

I have won a lot of different books in competitions lately which I would really love to take with me, but I am thinking that my kindle is going to have to go with me rather than books. I am going to organise a folder of books on my kindle, especially for my holiday. I am heading to Rome, Florence and Pisa in Italy. Can anyone recommend a good book that's based in Italy to inspire me?

My book reviews this week are a bit slow on coming through. I have been reading the same two books now for just over a week. Work commitments have got in the way along with housework duties. Today it will be gardening duties as my lawn is out of control! Any offers? I hate it when all the lawns in your street are immaculate, for those that have them, and then mine is out of control! There are only 16 houses in my street so hate to let the side down. So off I go and back to my blogging later. This week is going to be a week of bookshelf organising so look out for some pre loved giveaways coming up.
