Martha's Bookshelf *** Friday Pick 12-11-09


More books to pick from!

Yes! I have a new group of books plus the ones not yet selected form pick#1 and pick#2.  BUT I also have some additional clarifications.

Issue 1:  Some of the books I have listed may be in the win list for my SaSR weekly drawings - eventually all of the books will be in both lists. So I have to say it will be first pick to the one who claims it.  SaSR winners are announced Friday mornings (or afternoon if I get busy!) and it usually takes that person a bit of time to get back to me.  That means the Friday Pick winner who is drawn Thursday night will usually get the choice named in their comment as I will have time to remove it from the SaSR file list before I announce that winner!

The problem comes then when the SaSR winner picks a book that is in the remaining Friday shelf picks! So I may have to announce later on Friday or Saturday that a certain book has been eliminated from those that are available. If that occurs either people choosing that book can comment naming a new choice or if/when their name is drawn they can pick another book at that time. I hope that makes sense and won't upset anyone!

Issue 2:  I had forgotten to put any restrictions for international winners. I don't want to preclude them but the postage can certainly be prohibitive. :(
SOOO - how about a compromise.  I am willing to give a $5.00 book certificate to international winners - Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Borders, TWRP, ClassAct Books, eTreasures, Desert Breeze, etc....you tell me where and I'll set it up. So for my overseas visitors your comment may indicate your choice of gift card.

Now here are this week's books!
