A fine thread.

I have Carnegie book, good stuff.
Sad part is I don't find time now to read books, only thing I read lately is internet now and then.

I don't want to reduce chances of anyone who will actually make time for reading, but I like the spirit behind this thread :)

Thanks! A couple days ago a gave away Fountainhead and None Dare Call it Treason, both are in the mail on their way to the winners.

Normally, I would just put them on Bookmooch and trade them, but I figure some of the books may be of interest to people here, and I would rather them go to people on here. i will probably keep doing this as long as there is interest. I was kinda suprised more people didn't enter the last one, considering the books are free. I pay to ship them. But I only ran the last one maybe 24 hours. So I dunno we will see.

I'm not opposed to you entering again. Like I said I would rather them go to someone on here than to put them on bookmooch. Which one(s) are you interested in? Looks like you might have a good shot at getting another book:D

glad to see some interest. i was begining to think noone here reads:p

I will probably let the entry period go until tommorow 7/16/09. I got some stuff to do tonight. so if anyone else wants in you still got a little time.

And I have already got a couple books lined up for my next giveaway, so keep an eye out after this one finishes. As long as there is interest i will probably keep doing these. I am a bibliophile, and have a ton of books (over 600) and I pick up dupes often to put on bookmooch (and now here). I appreciate this forum, so i couldn't think of a better group to share knowledge with.

DV,

Love the idea, and I'd put my name in that, but I already have copies of everything you listed.

However, if you ever run into an extra copy of Unintended Consequences, let me know.

I loaned mine out years ago, never got it back and now it's out of print.

You gotta figure you got pretty good odds of getting one eventually :)

Odds on these books ranged from 1 in 3 to 1 in 7. better then the lotto;)
