In this newsletter, you will find books releasing the weeks of April 23rd and April 30th that we think will be of interest to Bookreporter.com readers, along with Bonus News, where we call out a contest, feature or review that we want to let you know about so you have it on your radar.
This week, we are calling attention to our special contest for THE SUMMER WIVES by Beatriz Williams, which releases on July 10th and will be a Bookreporter.com Bets On selection. Twenty-five readers will win an advance copy of the book and share their comments on it. The deadline for your entries is Thursday, May 3rd at noon ET.
In anticipation of Mother's Day, our 13th annual "Books Mom Will Love" contest is up and running. From now through Monday, May 14th at noon ET, readers can enter to win one of our five prize packages, which includes all of the titles pictured above. Click here to read more about the books and enter the contest.
Also, please keep in mind our BIG contest on ReadingGroupGuides.com, where we are giving 10 book groups the chance to win six digital copies of the audiobook edition of Lisa Scottoline's AFTER ANNA (read by Mozhan Marno and Jeremy Bobb) and share their comments on it. We also are awarding 40 listeners a physical copy of the audiobook. The deadline for your entries is Wednesday, May 2nd at noon ET.
We are happy to report that AFTER ANNA debuted in the #1 slot on Bookscan, which measures books sold around the country, AND it was the MOST eagerly awaited title in our recent Bookreporter.com poll about April releases that you wanted to read. So jump on this opportunity to give it a listen!
