aromaannie Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Penguin are giving away 500 holiday reads to anybody who promises to review it within 6 weeks. I got Playback by Raymond Chandler http://www.blogaholidayread.co.uk/site/baMain.php5 Quote
happyanddandy Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 thanks for that - I signed up - just waitiing for book title Quote
Michelle Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I'm probably blacklisted, because I never reviewed my huge book of poems! Quote
Freewheeling Andy Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 That's a distinctly less heavy, and a lot easier to read, bunch than the Penguin Classics were. Although I'm not sure I'd want to read Ayn Rand whilst lying on the beach. Quote
happyanddandy Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I have got Love in a Cold Climate by Nancy Mitford - hopefully it wiill arrive in time for my holiday Quote
~Andrea~ Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 (edited) I've been put off by doing the penguin classics one. It was hanging over me like unfinished homework. Edited July 23, 2008 by ~Andrea~ Quote
JudyB Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I've been put off by doing the penguin classics one. It was hanging over me like unfinished homework. I felt the same when I got my email from them - although I did (by the skin of my teeth) my review I don't want to risk getting another philosophy tome!!! Quote
Louiseog Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I've got Crackdown by Bernard Cornwell which looks OK, thanks for the link. Quote
Angel Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I'm probably blacklisted, because I never reviewed my huge book of poems! and me! Quote
JudyB Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Had another look and this time noticed that it was fiction so decided to go for it . . . no books left. Quote
Mia Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 I'm probably blacklisted, because I never reviewed my huge book of poems! Same here! Quote
happyanddandy Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 I can't find the thread related to this on BCF and I can't find where to put my review on the Penguin site. I don't have access to my Outlook either to look up the old email so I 'm hoping someone can help me to point me in the right direction please? Quote
Janet Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Is this the right thread? If you can let me know, I can merge them. Quote
Louiseog Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Have read and reviewed except I can't find the review now! Quote
happyanddandy Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 My Review of 'Love in a Cold Climate' by Nancy Mitford is published today on the website http://www.blogaholidayread.co.uk Quote
