3 Years of Brad’s Reader: Win a $30 Amazon Gift Card

As promised, today marks my Brad’s Reader 3 Birthday/Anniversary giveaway. The prize will be a $25 Amazon gift card. I’m keeping this really simple: To enter to win, all you have to do is leave a comment under this post. What are you going to comment about? Tell us what the best book you have read in 2009. That’s it. You need to give the title and author. If you want to explain why it has been your favorite book of 2009, you are more than welcome to do so.

I’ll leave the comments open on this post for 24 hours, after that, no more comments will be accepted. I will then pick a comment totally at random. This means I take the number of comments from first to last and use a top secret, highly complicated random number generator to pick a number. Once the number is chosen, the corresponding comment will be the winner.

The Fine Print

1. One comment per person please. I’ll be checking. Let’s keep this fair for everyone.

2. No prize substitutions.

3. Prize in USD (US dollars) only.

4. Comments not answering the question: “What is the best book you have read in 2009?” Will be disqualified.

5. No spam (that goes without saying).

6. The chosen winner is final and will be announced after winner has been notified.

7. Amazon gift card will be sent via email to winner.

8. Please use a valid email address! This is the only way I’ll be able to contact the winner.

9. If you have any questions regarding this contest, please do not leave a comment! Rather, use this contact form to send me your questions.

I hope this is fairly straightforward. I did a contest like this in the past and it was a success and I got really good feedback.

My 2009 Book Selection

Since I’m asking what was the best book you have read in 2009, I’ll start. For me, the book is The Terror: A Novel (aff link) by Dan Simmons. The book is a tale about two Royal Navy ships that get stuck in the ice of the arctic. The sailors must endure extreme cold temperatures, lack of food, scurvy and a mysterious creature on the ice killing sailors one by one. You can read a more detailed review I wrote of this novel here.

Alright, this post is open for comments! Good luck and thanks again for all your support over the past 3 years.

Comments for this post will close on Thursday December 3, 2009 at 3:30pm Central Standard Time.
