70 copies of "The Mouse Charmers" by Anuradha Goyal up for review :-)

I almost forgot that I applied for this book. All of a sudden yesterday the courier guy called me to deliver it. I thought what it can be as I was not expecting anything, I confirmed twice whether the name is same ;-)

Surprised and happy to receive the book!!!

Just started reading :-)

Those who have read this booka nd posted review...do share your links ")

No mouse for me 

I got this book today. The first chapter about flipkart is too generic, let's see how the remaining chapters shape up.

All chapters are generic. #SpoilerAlert 

Where is mine? 

received the book today. my first in ib 

Thanks Anunoy :)

I have just recv. a copy of 'The Mouse Charmers' by Pengiun Group

Thanks IB and Penguin for the copy! Review coming up soon. 

Congo Ankita & Ragini..... [Smile]

I'm not one of 70 Mouse Charmers. :)

One advantage of applying for a book review in IB is, I just don't have to worry how to get time to read and review, etc.  

Hahahaaaa in this regard I would say other blogging forums are faster and more pro-active in sending books [Chuckle]

They are also faster in demanding that you post your review by the end of the day or you'll get sued. 

... but I love their participation vouchers 

Hehee I too got one recently, rather two, for writing poems [Grin]

or you'll get sued.

I got 5 or 6 

ND They send you reminders which look like legal notices 

No mail as yet... so I guess my application wasn't accepted. :)

Bad review? I do tend to give straight-forward reviews... and yes, some authors do tend to fight with me, but sweet words that are false have never done any good to anyone.

They never send mails of acceptance of applications. The book arives as a surprise 

Yes... but I take chances where there's no compulsion associated... [Smile]

Otherwise current fee is just 1000 bucks for 300-500 words review [wink^2]

Look Dada... Park Hotel of Kolkata serves you a steamy tea over their terrace... tastier is served at Keventers terrace-top at Darjeeeling... Poltu-da of our lane serves it in a smaller clay-cup...  But Poltu-da never complains of his 3 Rs rate because he knows what he's serving and whom he's serving.... these facts do not state that Poltu cud or never can make tea in Keventers kitchen... but he's enjoying this adjustive target customer right now [Grin and wink]

tea is my weakness, bro. whereever it is,

Haven't received the book.. :(

I guess no one has as yet 

any one got the book? was hoping to be lucky first time 

I dont think i will apply for any more reviews on IB. I never get any

This book is not my cup of tea too

Sharma ji, never back down... [Double wink]

nsv may be you always apply late. 

If I am not wrong, you had received one book from IB 

No. You are wrong. Like always.

lol :P 

muft mein review ?????  kaahe ko ??? 

Bhavana, it's only for interested candidates, so there's not a spot to be pointed out [Chuckle]

I too don't believe in non-productive usage of my time as time=money... especially I hate donkeying to make someone else rich without my even slight profit... but good thing with IB is they never nag you to post your book-review... read it at your pace and review when done, if you wish to... unlike other blogging communities you won't get a cheap deadline and whining emails to submit your review... So, applying to review in IB doesn't give us that eerie feeling "oh I'm being exploited!"   [Cheers]

 unlike other blogging communities

ba 

I took 1-2 months to submit some reviews on ib 

And I didn't.... as the book was not of my taste... Sigh....

Anunoy Samanta I don't apply for book reviews regularly, but this time I've found a book to be interesting and that's why I applied..If I'll it then I'll try to read it properly and review it..I'm happy that Indiblogger is giving opportunities to everyone by giving the book on a first-come, first-serve basis...I hope that new bloggers will make use of this opportunity and write some of the amazing reviews on this book..

Exactly!

applied...the moment I got the mail yesterday...I need such book from long time.....surely will be a worth reading this...finger crossed....

Cheers!

A lot depends on how many bloggers apply to read this book... which, I think, is anyway going to be pretty high.

But as they mention "opportunities are given out on a first-come, first-serve basis", i.e. no bias relating to blog popularity and all... So, kind of cool!
