Win Prizes From Book Buzz

We're going to spend this summer in fictional vacation spots.  If you could take a trip into any book, where would you go?  You can pick an imaginary place like Alice's Wonderland or a real place that is featured in a book, Sherlock Holmes' London, for example.

When: July 1-August 31, 2012

How do I enter: Pick a vacation destination and tell us all about it in our Summer Contest discussion.

Prizes: Participants will be entered into a draw for 10 book prize packages.  The winners will be announced in the first week of September.

4.  Read a genre you would normally avoid.

5.  Read a classic you've never tried.

6.  Read a biography of someone you dislike.

Choose whatever books you like and start reading!
