What Shall I Read This April?? + GIVEAWAY

Last month you picked Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children and managed to keep up the run of good choices of books for me to read! It was well written and fun - but I think after quite a few YA books in March I fancy something a little adult this month...

So what is this all about? I realised the other day that I've been doing these Throwback Thursday posts inspired by Melissa at My World...in words and pictures for nearly year now - I have posted about over 100 books I own but I have hardly read any yet. So on the first Thursday of each month I will post a poll highlighting all the Throwback Thursday books I've highlighted in the last month plus one of the older Throwbacks and ask you to pick which book I should read. The most popular book after 5 days or so, will be picked up by me and actually read and (hopefully!) reviewed by the end of the month. However, in thanks I will also offer anyone who enters a copy of any book from my TBR Shelf. This way older books get a lot of love from both of us!


So to summarise -
- Pick a book you want me to read from my Throwback Thursday's posts and be in with a chance to win a book for yourself from my TBR pile for your own - check my TBR Shelf at the top for some other books that I need to get round to reading!
- I'll ship it out to from the Book Depository or fishpond so it will be open internationally.
- Leave a comment for an extra entry telling my why I should read your choice!
- Open to followers only (Sorry, but I want to reward those who stop by regularly! Also I'm not advertising or publicising this giveaway so it's just for those who read my blog regularly!)
- Poll closes midnight on Tuesday 9th April - I will try to announce the winning book and lucky follower, by next Thursday.
This month I was feeling in the mood for some mystery stories but thought I'd pick a wide selection of different types of mysteries and crime stories for you to choose from. You can go to the original posts to see what I said about them if you click on them.

  6. The Charlaine Harris has mixed reviews for her mystery novels (although I do plan on reading them myself). However, I say Red Tree! It sounds so good. Listen to B. and I... ;)

  7. I chose the Red Tree because it's the most beautiful cover from all of these and I like the blurb on goodreads as well.

  8. I vote for Shakespeare's Landlord by Charlaine Harris. I'm in the middle of her Sookie series and I am really enjoying them. I would love to know if her other books are any good. Thanks for the giveaway!
