    Is this open to the UK? I can't see in the terms anything different but it does state:
    If requiring delivery, prizes will be posted to competition winners by registered or ordinary post. Winners may organise delivery of their prizes at their cost with a courier company. Any loss of prizes by a courier company or Australia Post is not the responsibility of TheReadingRoom.com. In that event TheReadingRoom.com may or may not, in its discretion, replace the prize.

    It also talks about the prize being in dollars??

    I have spent a long time working out the answers to this comp but when I get to the end it won't submit. I have let them know the problem and hopefully they will do something about it. :mad:

    I share below my suggested answers - you are welcome to use them, however I take no responsibility if they are not correct as I am no genius :D

    1. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. Spokane
    2. The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. North Dakota
    3. Mrs 'arris Goes to Paris by Paul Gallico. London
    4. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. Nazi Germany
    5. Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery. Prince Edward Island, Canada.
    6. WILL CHECK AND COME BACK TO THIS ONE. (can't read my writing:o)
    7. A Study In Scarlet by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Baker Street, London
    8 1984 by George Orwell. Victory Mansions
    9. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin. Pemberley Derbyshire
    10.The Order of the Phoenix by J K Rowling. 12 Grimmauld Place, London

    As I say, I do not guarantee the accuracy of these answers so I would advise checking. ;)


    6. The Hobbit by J R R Tolkein. Dormston.:rotfl:

    It is now submitting OK
    Thanks to all OP's your efforts are much appreciated :A

    You can submit more than once so perhaps use both answers in separate submissions :cool:


    I thought some answers to the question of 'address' were a little difficult to decide on :)
