5 years anniversary party: Welcome!

So today IS the day ;-) November 23, 2006 I started this blog and guys, I was never expecting for it to become what it's now. For me it was a place where posting random thoughts on the books I was reading... ok, I have told this story many many time, enough with it. To celebrate this day I asked to authors and publishers to be generous and to send me gifts... gifts that I now will share with you! Following a list of 237 giveaways: ebooks, print books, coupons and even some special prizes... you can start you hunt, then post a comment with 3 picks, first in first out, so I will try to send you pick n°1, if it's already gone, I will assign respectively n°2 or n°3, I hope it's not the case all 3 picks are gone, I will try to update the list so that you can see what is no more available. Remember, if you don't have a Livejournal account with an email in the profile I can contact you, or if you use Facebook or other accounts, and I don't have the way to reach you by email, please send me a private message with the info, otherwise you comment is not valid. Thank you and Enjoy!

Happy anniversary Elisa and thanks for this labour of love!

My first choice would be 112 - J L Merrow, Pricks and Pragmatism, but if I'm too late for that one either 77, Alan Chin, or 104 Ava March would be lovely too.

Here's to another 5 years.
