I had a guess after about 4 letters and it's still holding, yea! I'm sure there's more who haven't even chimed in. Since I don't have any readers yet, I hope I get one. The card sure wouldn't do me much good without it...

<fingers crossed>

Sure it would. You can read ebooks on lots of devices.... but if you don't have a portable device that will support ebooks you can read them on your PC... or gift the card to someone else.

Found every letter except the "easy" 9th. And my book guess appears to be correct - but never assume until the last letter...

A big thank you to Mobileread and Pocketbook for a fun diversion this past few days! I learned about features I never knew existed, and a few new searching tricks for the future!

Today is the final day of our winter contest and finding the last letter is a real challenge. It's been hidden in the depth of MobileRead where you can meet loose llamas, squirrels, otters and the blue fish. Have fun!

Note:
If you've found and collected all 11 letters (and we are quite optimistic you have!), it's time to put them into the right order to form a well-known book title. Deadline to send us the book title is December 13th 2009, at 11:59 PM EST. Please email it to wintercontest@mobileread.com and don't forget to include your username! You may enter only once! MobileRead's Moderators keep their fingers crossed. Good luck to all of you!

And once again: Please do not post what book title you sent us and do not give hints on the book, its content or its author. There will be plenty of time for discussions AFTER Dec 13th, 11:59 PM EST. Thank you!

Hmm, that could mean about every thread on this forum...

jhoff80 · 12-10-2009, 03:13 AM

Yeah, I can't find the last letter, I'm just going to go with my answer. I don't see any possible way it could be anything else.

You didn't even need the last two letters...

poshm · 12-10-2009, 03:39 AM

I know exactly where to look but boy is that last letter well hidden !

KarenH · 12-10-2009, 03:42 AM

I actually stumbled across this one amazingly quickly - but it was purely an accident! Still haven't found yesterday's, but I'm not particularly concerned about it.

You didn't need the last 7

Though it's nice to be sure of the answer

I'd definitely like to find the last letter, if only for completion.

tommik · 12-10-2009, 03:45 AM

I also give it up. I'm preety sure I know the title.

dreams · 12-10-2009, 03:54 AM

Wow, that was tricky and well hidden! I was almost ready to give up.

Javed · 12-10-2009, 03:56 AM

Yes it was well hidden. Found it after looking for quite some time. Now I have all eleven.

I didn't need to find all of them, but wanted to.

This has been a great contest.
