In previous months we had half this many copies available, which means this month twice as many members will win a book!

Points to note:

• E-books are listed at the bottom. Each ebook says “This book is an eBook, not a physical book.”
• You never know what you may win, so only request books you’re interested in reviewing yourself.

Books you’ve won: We’ve added an easy way to track all the books you’ve won from Early Reviewers. The Books you’ve won page lets you keep track of the books you’ve won, reviewed, and whether a book has actually been received. More on the feature in this blog post.

And as always, our thanks to all the publishers participating this month!

We’ve* added an easy way to keep track of all the books you’ve won from Early Reviewers. This new page shows you all the books you’ve won and whether you’ve written your reviews yet. You can also mark if you haven’t received a book yet, so that the lack of a review won’t count against you. Once your LTER book comes in the mail, you can mark it received and then add it to your library right from this page.

Books you’ve won

As we say in the Rules and Conditions for Early Reviewers:

You are not legally obligated to review books you receive through LTER. But subsequent LTER dispersal decisions may take your number of reviewed and unreviewed books into account. A book will be considered “reviewed” if a review is posted to LibraryThing and is comprised of at least 25 words and not obviously nonsense. Reviews may include but not solely consist of a URL.

So write those reviews!

Talk about it in this Talk thread.

Note: You’re not required to actually mark whether or not you’ve received the book. If you’ve reviewed it, we’re going to assume you got your copy. The received data is mainly so we can keep track of books that have gone missing in the mail.

Update: The next step is to add a similar page for Member Giveaway books. We’re doing it as a separate page since the requirements are somewhat different between Early Reviewers and Member Giveaways. But the MG page will also let you see what you’ve won, mark books as received or not, and (importantly) remind you whether or not the member requested a review with the giveaway.

*Credit goes to Luke—thanks for building this!

And if you haven’t been paying attention, we just released Collections. This is great for Early Reviewers who need to review their book but don’t necessarily want to keep it in their library. Just make an Early Reviewers collection, and put the book there. That way the book (and review) stay associated with you, but you can, if you like, keep it separate from Your Library!

As a special holiday treat, we’ve got an Early Reviewers “bonus batch” for you. Unlike most bonus batches, this only includes one book, *and* it is running at the same time as the regular December batch. What that means for you is that you could potentially win two books this month, since the bonus batch ‘winners’ are picked separately.

The book: Random House’s new Modern Library edition of Geoffrey Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales. It’s a new complete and unabridged translation by Burton Raffel with an introduction by John Miles Foley.

NPR’s “Weekend All Things Considered” did an interview with the translator, Burton Raffel, a few weeks ago, The Art of Translation, if you’re interested.

Only fifteen copies are available, and only to residents of the US.

Go request it if you’re interested! You have until the end of the month.
