Penguin are giving away books – the only catch being you have to write a review of the book you get within 6 weeks of receiving it.

    I shared an RSS link to this with Elly! She loves Books… just ask George, he had to move them all to the new house.
    And guess what she got…. :lol:

    You should get an email within a few minutes of signing up with the book title. I’m supposed to be getting:
    Winter King, The: A Novel of Arthur: The Warlord Chronicles
    I have a sneaking suspicion that I might have it already, but if I don’t it’s the kind of book I’d probably enjoy

    You didn’t mention that it’s a randomly chosen title. So I could be sent the latest Sex And The City novel — and then locked into doing a review. :)

    What’s the catch?
    Do I have to give them a litany of personal details and/or end up being plagued with constant junk advertising?

  8. From Michele Neylon:

    You have to post a review of the book – either on your own blog or on their system. I don’t see any other “problems”
