World Book Night GIVEAWAY!

That's right: I'm giving away one of my copies of The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde that I'm receiving for World Book Night, just because I love y'all so much. See my previous blog post explaining about WBN 2013 here.

About the Book:
Set in 1985, the Crimean War hasn't ended, Wales is a Republic, people can timetravel and everyone has a fascination with literature. Thursday Next is a Special Operative in literary detection and is on the trail of a person who is kidnapping characters from great fictional works. This case could make or break her career ...

World Book Night 2013 titles!

What is World Book Night?
Entering into its third year, WBN is at its core, an initiative to get more people reading. With literacy rates falling and people spending more time interacting with their electronic devices instead of the physical written word, it's no wonder that such a programme came about. In total, a million books are given away on the 23rd April and people who receive copies are encouraged to pass the book on when they've finished in order to spread the message about the books that have been chosen.

The books have arrived!

They're here! Don't they look beautiful? Granted, the covers aren't as pretty as some of the other books that have been chosen for WBN, but I think they look pretty awesome all lined up, ready to be given away. Really looking forward to Monday!

World Book Night 2012

A friend told me about WBN in 2011 and I promptly forgot about it, being the attentive friend that I am. When I remembered, I'm not even sure if I registered correctly, because I remember having to re-do my application over and over again, getting a funny message each time I tried to submit it. The site was as slow as the NaNoWriMo site the first few days of NaNo season each year, evidently crowded of people like me trying to register at the last possible opportunity.
