About "The Book Pick" Contest!
We are seeking the next great book that our book clubs will LOVE! So AUTHORS... we want to know all about the books that you have poured your time, heart and soul into writing. Your book that maybe isn't getting on the Best Seller lists or Oprah's radar, but SHOULD BE! We want to help YOU get the word out to book clubs about YOUR book! We have over 5,200 members and 675 book clubs (and growing) in our BookBundlz reading community! So what's the contest about: The next great book pick for BookBundlz and the opportunity for great exposure for you!

Here is how it works...
Book submissions will be accepted from all published authors (includes self-published, young, old, big names and unknowns) as long as the book is printed and has an actual ISBN number and can be found through the Amazon database. (See dates below for submission)
Once we receive all the book submissions, the submissions will be narrowed down to the Top 5* book picks that we think are most appropriate for our book club readers.
If your book is in the Top 5, it will be listed on our site for 4 weeks!!! During which time, we will open up the voting. The top vote getter of the chosen 5 will be our BB Book Pick for the indicated month. (In this case June, 2012)
A note about voting: Clubies can vote once a day EVERY day of the voting period! But only once a day. So vote often! And recruit your friends! (Remember it's free to become a Clubie.) You want lots of votes, cause...
The winner will receive:
Whoah! We may not be the "Grand Dame Miss O" but that's a great value to the winner (and the Top 5)!
Additional prizes may be announced.
