| | |  Review Book 6 First and Win a Tee-Shirt!
Win a SS Tee-Shirt if you are the FIRST to send us a spoiler-free review of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince!
Your review must not contain major spoilers, such as who (if anybody) dies, ships, etc.
Your review must be received before 2pm GMT on Saturday, July 16th.
This means you will only have 14 hours to read the whole book (and write the review) - if you get it at midnight!
It has to be clear to us that you have read the whole book or your submission will be disqualified.
The best 5 submissions will be awarded special titles, forum tags, and recognition.
Send your review to snitchseeker.com@gmail.com Happy Speed Reading!! UPDATE: We now have a winner! Kurisuchiina won the Tee-shirt with this review. But there is still a few hours until the cut-off so you still have a chance to win prizes!
Send yours in!  | |

Hm. I like this idea, but it seems unfair to those members in other countries that will not recieve the book in their language on the 16th.

Good thing I'm going the midnight party at my local bookstore, or else I couldn't do this. Of course, I don't really want to speed read, so it may take me like, four hours, depending on how long the book is...
