This is officially the 1000th post on Bookwi.se. (A few short term posts got deleted, so it is probably 1012 or something, but there are currently 1000 published posts on Bookwi.se)
In celebration I am giving away a bunch of books. Most of these were donated by an unnamed blogger who received them as promotional copies. A few are books that I either bought or received as promotional copies. Most are new, a few have been read once. I give away books as a personal commitment to get books into the hand of people that will read them more than a blog promotion, but I would be thrilled if I also get some new followers.
Here are the rules
- Leave a comment below. First to ask gets the book.
- You can ask for more than one, but if you ask for more than one, I would like, but will not require that you submit a review for Bookwi.se for one or both books.
- I will pay the shipping.
- It would be great, but not required if you tweet or post on Facebook about the give away or generally tell everyone you know how great Bookwi.se is 🙂
- Give away end Feb 4, 2012 at Midnight Eastern. Anything not given away by that time will be given away another time.
