How does this work?

Well, here's what happens: First, you must be between the ages of 14-18, and you must mail us a consent form, completely filled out and signed by your parent or guardian. Click here to download the consent form.
 
After we receive your consent form, if your address is legible and everything's filled out, we'll add you to our Pulse IT Board.  Hooray!  But what does that mean?  
 
It means, we will send you one book approximately every month.  A FREE book.  You don't even have to pay the shipping!  We enter names on a rolling basis, but each month there is a cut-off date. If we do not receive your consent form by that date, you will not receive your first book until the next month.
 
Two weeks after you receive your book, we email a link to review the book.  This is all we ask in exchange for free books, so we hope that you will fill out the review for each book. The good news is that the link to review the book is available for A FULL MONTH, so if your homework is piling up, or you have to baby-sit your little brother, or your volunteering is taking up too much time to read the book in a week, don't worry! Just fill it in within the month.
 
As for the reviews, this isn't like a book report for English class -- we just ask about 10 short questions, and filling out the review should take no more than 15 minutes.  
 
If you do not complete the reviews, we will not charge you for the book, but we will remove you from the board if you miss 2 reviews in a row.

See below for some of the great books you could receive as a PULSE IT Member:

		Sight By Adrienne Maria Vrettos Fifteen-year-old Dylan has horrific visions of the last moments of children who have been abducted, kidnapped, or worse. Dylan gives police clues that help them to find children's bodies, but she keeps most of her visions to herself. Dylan has become used to withholding her sight abilities -- even from her best friend, Pilar. But when Pilar’s sister disappears, Dylan is in a race against time to save a life, and desperate to focus her abilities so that she herself can survive.
		Secrets of My Suburban Life By Lauren Baratz-Logsted Everything changed for Lauren ("Ren") after Harry Potter killed her mom. No, it's not what you think --Harry Potter didn't come to life and stab her or anything. A stack of those thick books crushed her. Now Ren is stuck in the suburbs of Connecticut, because her father is too grief-stricken to continue living in New York. Ren tries to fit in at her new school, but the most popular girl, Farrin, keeps icing her out. Then Ren discovers that Farrin has a secret: She's been communicating online with an older man, and they are actually planning to meet! Ren can't let Farrin go through with it, so she comes up with the perfect plan. But then she finds out who the man is...
		Wake By Lisa McMann For seventeen-year-old Janie, getting sucked into other people's dreams is getting old. Especially the falling dreams, the naked-but-nobody-notices dreams, and the sex-crazed dreams. Janie's seen enough fantasy booty to last her a lifetime. She can't tell anybody about what she does; they'd never believe her or, worse, they'd think she's a freak. So Janie lives on the fringe, cursed with an ability she doesn't want and can't control. Then she falls into a gruesome nightmare, one that chills her to the bone. Because for the first time, Janie is more than a witness to someone else's twisted psyche. She is a participant....
		Uglies By Scott Westerfeld Tally Youngblood is one of the most daring of the Uglies, but she, like all other teens of her age, can't wait for a surgery at age sixteen that will make her a "Pretty." In just a few weeks Tally will be there. But Tally's new friend, Shay, isn't sure she wants to be Pretty. She'd rather risk life on the outside. When Shay runs away, Tally learns about a whole new side of the Pretty world - and it isn't Pretty. The authorities offer Tally the worst choice she can imagine: find her friend and turn her in, or never turn pretty at all. The choice Tally makes changes her world forever.
