2011 Prize List

Everybody loves prizes and just like last year, this year we have some fabulous ones. I'm still working on the grand prize.

If you're new to the challenge, how it works is that each month I draw a winner using Random.org and then that winner picks one book from the prize list. To be in the drawing you must remember to link up your reviews. If the book you pick is not able to be shipped to you because of it being international, we will try and work something else out.

*Note: Some of these books star main characters who are not poc BUT there is a secondary character of color who plays a huge role in the book.

The Prizes :)

We Have Prizes!

Hello all! My name is Ari and my blog is Reading in Color. I'm really excited to be helping Pam and Katy with this challenge. Good news, we have prizes! Prizes will be awarded monthly and at the end of the challenge. Prizes will consist of books, bookstore giftcards and swag! Thank you to everyone who is donating prizes, you guys rock!

1. Each month a reviewer will randomly be picked from the list of POC reviews that have been linked to.

2. A prize to anyone who reviews more than the challenge level they signed up for.

3. An prize to anyone who overall reviews the most books in their category and in the challenge.

4. A prize to someone who comments the most on other POC reviews in this challenge, once a month and overall.

I'll be doing a post of all the prizes soon and this post may be edited. Thank you all for doing this challenge! I ask that if you are participating in this challenge, you follow the blog and leave a link at the sign-up post. There are a lot more comments than sign-ups and followers and that makes things a bit confusing.
