The Book Reviews by Bloggers program is 4 books young and so many reviews have already poured in! 🙂 Today, we add another book. This time we have yet another interesting book to give away. A book that revolves around the television industry. Check out the excerpt and quickly let us know if you would want this delivered to you!
With her debut novel, Naomi Datta welcomes us to the world of television, where nothing is ever, what it appears. 10 books of Naomi Datta’s ‘The 6 pm Slot‘ is up for grabs! Here’s an excerpt from the book:
Tania has a dream job as supervising producer at YTV, a leading entertainment channel. But things are not what they seem—YTV’s ratings and fortunes are dipping, and Tania is the one assigned to resurrect the 6 pm slot with a new talk show and a scantily clad host. But when a dying girl calls on the show the fun and games come to a screeching halt. This turn of events gives Rajneesh Tiwari, the demi god of Indian news television, one of his most explosive ‘human interest’ stories of the year. The stage is set for a tragic-comedy of epic errors. Will life ever be the same for luckless Tania – or anyone involved in the doomed 6PM slot?

Sounds interesting. A book around my industry and interest is a must read for me anyways. Would write for it by default. Although, it would be great to get a free copy for doing so.
