We’ve had lots of great giveaways and contests during the year here at KindleBoards and we wanted to end 2009 with just one more….here’s your chance to share your opinion and maybe win a prize in the process!

The gimmick: A Top Ten List of what you have read in 2009

Movie critics do it, book reviewers do it, I expect that KindleBoards readers can do it in spades….come up with your Top Ten List of Books for the Year.

Guidelines:

1. List your top ten books that you have read for the year. Ten — not nine, not eleven. TEN.
2. Books must be listed in rank order. Number one is the best then move on down the list.
3. While the book can have been written and published in any year, you must have read it in 2009.
4. You must have read the book on your Kindle. All those fabulous paper books you read? They have to go on a different list.
5. Entries must be listed: Title by author (ie, In Cold Blood by Truman Capote). You do not need to include links to the book.
6. Entries must be posted from December 1, 2009 until midnight December 21, 2009 (EST).
7. You may modify your entry after it is posted (if you remember a book you enjoyed but forgot, eg). No more modifying after December 21.

Note – for new (or newish) Kindle owners, who might not have read 10 books on their Kindles yet….yes, you can enter and you can list books you read in paper prior to receiving your Kindle. BUT….the book must exist in a Kindle edition. My rationale is that if you owned the Kindle earlier, you would have read the book in a Kindle version.

I hope that is clear and makes our newer Kindle owners feel like they can dive in an join the fun. Let me know if you have questions!

Winners will be randomly selected from all who post and announced in the thread. Prizes:

December 22: $25 Amazon gift certificate
December 23: $50 Amazon gift certificate
December 24: $75 Amazon gift certificate

This contest is open to all registered KindleBoards members and all the usual disclaimers apply. Enter here!
