It's Top Ten Tuesday-I'm counting down the Top Ten Book Club Girl on Air shows every Tuesday this summer. These are the shows that have had the most listens, including during both their initial airing and subsequent downloads.
Each week I'm asking you to give a listen and comment with something you learned from the show. One commenter will be chosen to win that week's featured book and a tote bag. Last week we started the countdown at #10 with our show featuring Mary Kay Andrews discussing her novel, Deep Dish. Mary Kay Andrews was kind enough to also donate a copy her her brand new book, Summer Rental, to the prize package. And the winner of both books and the tote bag is....Susan from Susan's Literary Cafe! Congratulations Susan! Send your snail mail address to me at bookclubgirl AT gmail DOT com.
Coming in at #9 on the Book Club Girl on Air countdown is our show with Thrity Umrigar discussing her bestselling book club favorite The Space Between Us. Listen to the show and leave a comment with something you learned from the show and you'll be entered to win The Space Between Us, plus an advance copy of Thrity's new novel, coming in January 2012, The World We Found, and of course, a Book Club Girl tote bag to tote them both the beach! I'll choose one random commenter from all those received by midnight, Friday, July 8th to win.
To celebrate the 10 weeks of summer, I'm going to reveal our Top 10 most popular Book Club Girl on Air shows every Tuesday for the next 10 weeks! These are the 10 shows that got the most live listens plus downloads since their initial airing on Book Club Girl on Air and I think it's high time to celebrate them! And to make it more fun, each week I'll offer the book discussed during that week's show for giveaway plus a tote bag. To enter to win, simply give the show a listen anytime during the week and post a comment about something interesting you learned from the author during the show. I'll choose 1 random person from all comments received by that Friday to win the book plus a Book Club Girl tote bag to take with you to the beach this summer!
So without further ado...the 10th most popular Book Club Girl on Air Show featured an author whose newest book is on the bestseller lists now... it's none other than Mary Kay Andrews, who joined us to discuss her novel, Deep Dish! Listen in to the show below and leave a comment with something you learned or liked from the show. I'll choose one random commenter to win a copy of Deep Dish, a tote bag and courtesy of Mary Kay herself, a signed copy of her new book Summer Rental, from all comments received by midnight, Friday, July 1st. And be sure to check out Summer Rental, which has just gone on sale and is a perfect summer read!
Book Club Girl is: a member of a book club and an avid reader who spent most of her childhood immersed in a book, an English major who considered library school until she realized it was all about computers, so turned to publishing, where she now works (but she vows to talk about books from all over and not to simply flog those from her own house). She was single, lived in the city, met a man, moved to the 'burbs, and is now a wife, a stepmother, a mother, and in her spare time, a fledgling blogger dedicated to sharing great books, news and tips with book club girls everywhere.
My Review Policy
I review fiction and nonfiction that is appropriate for book clubs. This includes literary and some women's commercial fiction as well as memoir and narrative nonfiction. I do not review self-help, thrillers, mysteries, horror, or fantasy. I have a fondness for YA literature and while the blog is not devoted to it (well, except for my obsession with the Betsy-Tacy series), I will occasionally review some YA books. The best way to reach me to request a review is to email me at bookclubgirl AT gmail DOT com.
