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 11th June - I will try to announce the winning book and lucky follower, by next Thursday.
This month is another mixed genre month...I don't want to be predictable! You can go to the original posts to see what I said about them if you click on them.

Voted for Inheritance - two cats on the cover!! You must read a book with cats! ;p
ReplyDeleteclash of kings...my brother read all the books back to back when he was loosing the will to read so that means it's really really good^^
ReplyDeleteI voted for Clash of Kings because I love the show and want to read them soon!
ReplyDeleteI chose The inheritence -bevause its full of fantasy stories- step into another world!
ReplyDeletePlague Town by Dana Fredsti -- because I love urban fantasy and I'm always looking for recommendations. I hope it's a good one.
ReplyDeleteI'd vote for The Inheritance. I love Hobb's writing, but that's one of her titles I haven't gotten to yet.
ReplyDeleteA Clash of Kings! These books are amazing, and so hard to stop once you've gotten into them. But if you do read A Clash of Kings, be warned -- you'll probably want to keep going with all the rest of the books!

Clash of Kings by George R.R. Martin. I love his writing, he's an amazing author! And of course I love the tv series :)
ReplyDeleteTruth be told, you should read all of them! But I voted for Alison Hewitt cos it sounds funny and funny is good. And it's about zombies, and you need zombies
ReplyDeleteI would choose The Inheritance by Robin Hobb because it sounds like a wonderful bunch of short stories. I think short stories are great when you don't have a lot of time to read because you can finish each one quickly and move on to the next.
ReplyDeleteHas to be CLASH OF KINGS. George RR Martin is a genius.
ReplyDeleteChristina Kit. in the form
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Plague Town because she looks badass on the cover and plagues are always exciting (unless you're actually there!! in which case it sucks!)
I read Alison Hewitt and would be curious to know what you thought. Besides, it's a cool cover to have on commute.
ReplyDeleteAllison Hewitt Is Trapped sounds interesting, I'd love to hear what you think of this one!
