I don’t normally post on Thursdays, but I wanted to pop by for a special announcement. Yesterday, I reached 100 followers on my site – hurray! In honor of my wonderful followers, I’ve decided to have a contest of the bookish variety. It took me a while to come up with the prizes (and they’ll require some patience) but I think you guys will like them.
The Prizes:
There will be TWO winners. Each winner will receive a pre-ordered copy of either:
Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins
Available August 24, 2010
OR
Linger by Maggie Stiefvater
Available July 20, 2010
Whichever books the winners choose will be sent out, via Powells.com (yay for Indies!), and arrive on their doorsteps right after the books are released. So you get the book right after it comes out, and you get it for free. Isn’t that worth the wait?
To Enter:
- Comment on this post and tell me one book you enjoyed reading recently. (1 entry)
-Become a follower of my site (click “Join This Site”) and leave another comment telling me so. If you’re already a follower, or my friend on LiveJournal, leave a comment letting me know. (1 entry)
-Post a link to this contest (on your blog, Twitter, Facebook, etc.) and leave a separate comment with the URL. If you post in multiple locations, please leave a separate comment for each URL. (1 entry per link)
Please note:
The contest ends on April 22nd at midnight EST. Make sure to check back to see if you’re a winner; you’ll have 30 days to collect your prize or some lucky soul will snatch it up instead!
Open to people with US and Canadian addresses only – sorry international readers!
Good luck and happy reading!

I tweeted about the contest (twitter.com/sharigreen).
Thanks for the awesome contest!
Ooooh so excited! How did I miss this one? Well… lets see, I’m a follower, I’ll go tweet it right now (@lisagailgreen) and hmm.. good book I recently read. I have to say Bleeding Violet sticks out at the moment. Woohoo!
Great contest, Anna! I would love to get my hands on a copy of Mockingjay. I’ve gotten totally hooked on the whole series! I just finished Scott Westerfeld’s Leviathan and really enjoyed it.
I’d like to win. I also tweeted it at twitter.com/susanxbradley
thanks,Susan

Okay, I can’t believe I didn’t already comment on this! What great prizes!! I was blown away by Marcello in the Real World. Such a good book. And I’m an old follower
Had to stop by and comment. I’m re-reading PIONEER WOMEN: VOICES OF THE KANSAS FRONTIER now that I’m working on revision of my historical. It is amazing to read so many first-hand accounts of those women who came before.
Congrats on 100. Sign me up for Mockingjay, please!
I recently really enjoyed Birthmarked by Caragh O’Brien
Right now I’m enjoying Toni Morrison’s The Bluest Eye.
I just became a follower of your blog. I have retweeted your tweet (@YolaRamunno).
I recently finished the first two books in The Hunger Games series. I loved The Hunger Games and Catching Fire. I am anxiously waiting to read Mockingjay.
Please enter me into your contest.
One book I read recently that I enjoyed was Downsiders, by Neal Shusterman. Please enter me in the contest !
Great contest! Just finished reading Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman
New follower!
Awesome book I read recently: Chicks Dig Time Lords – one HILARIOUS collection of essays by/about women who are fans of or a part of the Doctor Who fandom.
I know the contest is over but I wanted to share/join anyways. ^_^ (and I don’t know why I didn’t do this in one post. I guess I’m too sleep deprived.)
