IT'S CONTEST TIME!!! (getting close to 200 followers)




For the last couple of weeks I have let everyone know that if I went over 100 followers that I would have a contest. Well I now have 111 followers and this contest is to thank all my followers and to welcome any new followers that might join in during the contest. It is also to celebrate my cool new look that Crissy designed for me.


I have many different followers some who love Christian novels and some who love Secular novels and well some might just like to read both like I do. So instead of doing bundles, or sets of books, etc I have decided that I am going to have 5 winners to start out with (if I get a lot more followers I might add some winners and some books) I also might just surprise a follower for making a interesting or fun comment on my blog. So this way you never know if you might get something cool. (The person that I might pick for the comment book gets to pick out something from a secret stash of books not mentioned. Starting with my review and interview of Stacey Voss and her book Thunder and Blood.) :)

So far thanks to Danielle at Source book and Valerie at Hachette Book Group I have the following books up for grab:

The Prophecy of the Sisters by Michelle Zink

The Clique: Charmed and Dangerous by Liza Harrison

The Devouring by Simon Holt
Envy by Sandra Brown
The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks

An Offer You Can’t Refuse by Jill Mansell

The Greatest Knight by Elizabeth Chadwick

From my own stash:

Graceling by Kristin Cashmore
Moonlight by Rachel Hawthorne
Blue Bloods by Melissa De La Cruz
Uglies by Scott Westerfeld
Lucan by Susan Kearney
Wake by Lisa McMann (recently added because I reached 150 followers)

House of Dark Shadows by Robert Liparulo
Watcher in the Woods by fRobert Liparulo
A Vase of Mistaken Identity by Cathy Elliott

Breach of Trust by DiAnn Mills
Blood Lines by Mel Odom
Piece de Resistance by Sandra Byrd
Final Exposure by Roxanne Rustand
A String of Murders by Darlene Franklin
Love Finds You in Lonesome Prairie, Montana by Trisha Goyer and
      Ocieanna Fleiss (recently added because I reached 150 followers)



So these are the books I have as of right now, there could be more added depending on how the response goes, so lets get to the rules and how to enter.

Contest Rules

-first of since this is a contest for my followers you must be a follower (new or old it doesn't matter. If you are new just click on my Google follower that is on the side. I will check to see if you are following)
-as much as I would love this to be all international it can't be, but if you win and pick one of my books then I will ship international, but for the books from the publishers I must limit it to only US and Canada.

Contest Entries

-commenting and leaving a way to contact you +1 (I must stress the fact that I need a way to contact you, I don't care if you say your my friend on shoutlife, or emails on my contact page, or just leave a email, but I need a way to contact you or you can't win)
-new followers +2
-old followers +4
-follow me on twitter +1
-post a link about this contest on either twitter, facebook, or your blog (full post or sidebar) and you must post the link in your comment for me to check. +6
-if you refer someone to my site and they start following me +1 (so make sure they heard about my contest on your blog or twitter, etc so you get the extra entry)
-rate my blog +1 (its down on my sidebar)

Contest ends December 26th!

Well that is it, I hope you enjoy my contest and I want to thank everyone for following my blog. As a book  blogger it is important to have some great statistics and show publishers that you are a serious blogger and that is what I am wanting to do. I have recently put up a visitor counter that shows all the countries that visit and I am amazed at the hits from different countries. Good luck!
