World Book Night Saturday 5 March 2011

Hi again,
I have heard from Jen the Manager at Waterstones that on Saturday 5 March 2011 they will be opening the shop (Arc Bury St Edmunds) at 7pm for a special World Book Night evening. Along with my title - Half of  a Yellow Sun there will be a further 9 titles to give away on the evening.  It should be a fun evening and I hope many of you reading will be able to come along on the 5th
Helen

World Book Night 2011

I was lucky enough to be one of the people chosen to participate in the first World Book Night.  I will be collecting 48 copies of Half of  a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie from Waterstone's Bookstore at the Arc in Bury St Edmunds on 5 March 2011.  I chose this book from the 25 titles because I first read it on recommendation from a friend in Cambridge who had been recommended it by a relative in Denmark.  I would like to see just how far these 48 books can travel.  In the spirit of reading and sharing good books I will be giving the books away in various ways.  I would like everyone who receives a copy and reads it to share their thoughts about the book on this blog and to pass it on
