Tonight, Matthew, I'm going to be...
A Book Reviewer - possibly the best job in the world.
I think it just might be - you get free stuff and the power you wield over poor, well-meaning authors and publishers is immense. So, enter the latest Penguin project to harness the untapped potential of our readers on the t'interweb; Blog a Penguin Classic: Books by the greats, blogged by you
We're creating a blog on which every single Penguin Classic is reviewed by ordinary readers and whether they love it or hate it, we're publishing what they have to say. At the moment we're recruiting readers to get involved - email us here and if you're in the first batch, you'll get a free book (randomly chosen so be prepared for anything from Austen to Xenophon) and time to read, digest and review.
Interested? Good idea / bad idea? Which book would you love to review and which would be absolute torture? As usual, let us know...
