I am so excited about my new partnership with Bedside Reading, and I know you will be, too, because I’ll be doing monthly book giveaways with them!
Bedside Reading is a fantastic program which makes travel even better because, when you check into your room at participating hotels, you’re welcomed with a selection of new books WHICH ARE YOURS TO KEEP!
How amazing is that?!
You can learn more about Bedside Reading in my Forbes interview with founder Jane Ubell Meyer. But what you really need to know is that these are the participating hotels and the books they’ll be giving away this month — which means these are the titles you could win:
- Wicked River by Jenny Milchman
- Last But Not Least Lola by Christine Pakkala
- Jock Talk: 5 Communication Principles for Leaders as Exemplified by Legends of the Sports World by Beth Noymer Levine
- Forks Knives & Spoons by Leah DeCesare
- Dream Daughter by Diane Chamberlain
- The Dinner List by Rebecca Serla
- Becoming the Light: Realize Your True Enlightened Nature by Vivianne Nantel
- Black Bird of the Gallows by Meg Kassel
- The Telling Image: Shapes of Changing Times by Lois Farfel Stark
- The Stranger Diaries by Elly Griffiths
- THIRST: A Story of Redemption, Compassion, and a Mission to Bring Clean Water to the World by Scott Harrison & Lisa Sweetingham
- Pieces of Her: A Novel by Karin Slaughter

This is such a perfect selection of books. There’s fiction, non-fiction, drama, romance and some great thrillers. I loved loved loved Daisy Jones & The Six, and am so invested in Dream Daughter right now, that I almost didn’t get this post up.
The new Bedside Reading Listening program adds audiobooks to the giveaways so you can fall asleep to someone reading aloud to you or, if you’re taking a road trip, you can download a title to keep you company.
Thanks to Bedside Reading, one Midlife at the Oasis subscriber will win a selection of five books from the September collection.

Great Prize

Alana says
I would love a hotel that gave me free books! This sounds like such a great program – hope, one day, it is extended to some of the mid priced chains such as Hampton (in some way). I tweeted also.
Lauren Salomon says
This is a great concept. I am so happy when people get excited about reading books.
Hope I win!

Just subscribed! Would LOVE to read Daisy Jones and the Six! This sounds like such a cool program for hotels.
Suzanne Taylor says
What a boon for the publishers and the authors. How do the hotels decide on the books? Could an author submit to be selected?

NAti says
wow, this is such an amazing offer! I love reading and I’d love to find books on my hotel room. So sad it is only within the US only!

Oh, wow! What an amazing idea this is. I’m one of those people who checks into a hotel and then realises she’s left her reading book at home, so it would definitely be good for someone like me 🙂
