I ask because I'm luckky enough to be one of the Brits getting a book this time round (I didn't really think I stood even half a chance!), and will be receiving Boy A by Jonathan Trigell. Naturally, I'm excited as all hell - it's like getting an extra Xmas prezzie!
Anyone else been lucky enough to snag an LT Early Review book, whether this time round or previously?

I've been trying every single time, and every single time they shut me out:(

I got one in July and August; then I got nixed in Oct. and Nov.; didn't do Sept. b/c they didn't look good.
To be honest as fun as it is to get a free book -- I haven't been all that impressed with the quality of the novels (the writing, I mean) Is it possible these are rather less than stellar offerings and the publishers are just hoping to get a littlle buzz going?

Mine ain't arrived yet, and British post during December being what it is, I don't expect I'll get it before Xmas, to be honest. But when I do, I'll let you know what I think of it. :)

I think that's from the publisher that's driving us mad. Our apologies.

I figured it wasn't you guys' fault. :)
I know, atrocious grammar. I needed an excuse to use the word "atrocious."

Mr Dustin, you know he could if he wanted to. ;-)
Have you tried flattery? Bribery? Extortion?

Clearly, flattery, bribery and extortion don't work. You'll have to think of something else, Mr Dustin.

Well I dunno, I just tried yelling at him, and that doesn't seem to of worked, so I guess all I can do is ask and hope the "algorithms" deem me worthy of a book.
"Algorithms", may I have a book? Please?

Boy A arrived yesterday: a day after Abby told me I was getting a copy to review :)

My copy of Boy A arrived today. I'll be getting to it in the next week or two. Looking forward to it!
