Yesterday I got a book in the mail. Not just any book, a book that is not even for sale yet. I will be one of the first people to read it. The book is so new there's a disclaimer on the back that reads:
Advanced Reading Copy - NOT FOR SALE
This is an uncorrected proof. Please note that any quotes for reviews must be checked against the finished book. Dates, prices, and manufacturing details are subject to change or cancellation without notice.
I recently joined an online book club called http://www.bookbrowse.com/. As a member, I am able to read a few books a year before they are actually published and for sale to everyone else. As a book lover, that is probably one of the most exciting things I've been able to do. The only caveat is that I have to read it within a month and provide a review. So I have to carve out a few minutes a day at least to read the book. I'm so excited!
Oh, that's awesome!! So what is the book or is that a secret?
ReplyDeleteOh, I guess it is called The Year of the Flood!
ReplyDeleteYes - The Year of the Flood. It's actually a sequel to one of her other books, Oryx and Crake. Or not really a sequel because the events of the second book take place at the same time as the events of the first book. So more like a different perspective on the same events. I'll post a review here when I'm done. :)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a great deal! How exciting.
