    Now that I think about it, I do have a vague recollection of filling in a survey a few weeks ago, where a free book was promised to the first however-many-people that completed it.  I'm always entering competitions through emails I receive, and doing publisher surveys when they arise, but I never keep track of what I've entered, as I never actually expect to win anything!

    Snap!  That's me to a tee.   Another mystery brown corrugated cardboard parcel arrived today - The Beach Hut by Veronical Henry, I already have a copy of this one!  I guess it's another giveaway/survey that I've entered.

    I also received from Amazon Marketplace, a copy of 0.4 by Mike Lancaster

     

    I also received two mystery corrugated parcels - one was The Beach Hut - Veronica Henry and another Paul Torday, The Girl on the Landing.  I'm glad it wasn't Salmon Fishing as I just got a copy of that from the library last night as it's our reading group choice for this month.  I also got ANOTHER copy of A Moment Like This - Anita Notaro for review from the publishers - they sent me a copy last month too...and a competition win which I'd forgotten about, a beautiful hardback recipe book, signed and dedicated by the author, Pomegranates and Roses - Ariana Bundy.  The recipes look delicious - Persian influences and probably more for Bry and I rather than the children, especially with the nut content!

    The same brown corrugated envelope - guessing its another survey reward.  Shame I already have this on my TBR.

    The mystery brown corrugated envelopes are coming from Orion - they ran a survey back in March and have sent out a selection of books. I got Salmon Fishing in the Yemen.
