Hey guys,
I recently started entering goodreads competitions, entered about 20 today.
I heard you win quite regularly by entering these comps. Was wondering generally what's the rate at which people win/if people would share experiences with me?
Thanks all

I won 5 times back in January when I first started entering, and then nothing since.
So it's pretty random.0 -
I started entering about three weeks ago and I have won 7 so far :eek:0

wow great stories guys
does it very much depend on how much activity on the site you partake in??We’ve had to remove your signature. Please check the Forum Rules if you’re unsure why it’s been removed and, if still unsure, email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
Ah nevermind.
Found the answer to my own question!0 -
Personally I think it's about the activity as when I first started entering them I won 3 but then nothing. A couple of weeks ago I did an experiment and 'reviewed' some random books added to my to read, etc and then for the following week I won a book almost everyday! but then nothing now as i can't be bothered putting in the effort :rotfl: or maybe it's just about luck
good luck 0 -
Also interested in finding out about if general activity on your profile influences who they choose. I've been rating books but not written a review yet. Also added some friends. I came to realise that I never rate a book less than four stars; the reason being that I'd never bother to finish anything less worthy!0

Hi Maine,
It's here: http://www.goodreads.com/giveaway
Char, I joined earlier this week - have liked and reviewed a number of books, followed authors and have won 2 books. I think I have entered about 40 but am not sure if they are all finished yet.

I do that too. If I haven't been hooked by the storyline by 100 pages in then I don't waste any more of my time on it.
The site's quite good for getting recommendations based on your 'read' or 'to read' lists too.#TeamCarter
