Schott, M.A. (founder of S-O-S Research) united bloggers from all over the country to review over 50 books, DVDs and even a b-Calm.  Many of the blog writers are hosting giveaways of the products they've reviewed - totaling $1,100 in giveaways!  Are you feeling lucky?  Below are links to my reviews and giveaways but you can check out the full list at S-O-S Best of the Best Book Review and Giveaway Bonanza.
