The Eclectic Reader Book Contest

The Eclectic Readeris hosting a world wide contest to win The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas by John Boyne. While she has yet to review the book she has said it was "poignant and very moving novel". After reading Mutiny on the Bounty earlier in the year by the same author I have no doubt that The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas will be just as wonderful to read.

To read her review (coming shortly) and enter the contest simply click on over to her website The Eclectic Reader.

Good luck for anyone who enters!

Contest closes April 28.
