What Shall I read This July...? + GIVEAWAY

Last month I read a fantasy anthology at your bequest (The Inheritance - my review here) and once again enjoyed it. What can I say...? My followers have excellent taste! This month I've another four books for you to pick one for me to read...

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 July - I will try to announce the winning book and lucky follower, by next Thursday.

  2. Tough choice this month. I have heard that The Stepsister Scheme is good, but I think the dragon takes it, so Between.

  9. It was tough to choose between "The Stepsister Scheme" (which I've heard is a very good book) and "Dead Harvest" (which I was reminded that I also need to read). #bookbloggerproblems
