Book Giveaway: Enter to Win "Wondrous Strange"



I just received a new shipment of books from Amazon (my favorite store in the world), and decided it would be fun to have a Book Giveaway to start the week out right.

I recently finished reading WONDROUS STRANGE by Lesley Livingston and very much enjoyed it. It's an entertaining read, chilling at times, but mostly sweet and funny. Livingston interweaves Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream with a tale of faeries invading New York City in a way that is delightful and fresh.

Since my house is teeming with piles of books and very few bookshelves (I've been meaning to buy some but... I'm ....just... so... cheap!), I thought I'd have a contest and give it away to one lucky blog reader.

To enter, please leave a comment in this post. All commenters will receive one entry.

For an additional two (count 'em, TWO) entries, put a link to this giveaway on your blog or website, and link to it in the comments section.

WOO HOO!

You'll have until Monday, July 13th (7/13/09) to get your entries in.

Good luck, and Happy Monday!

Is it too late for needless flatter? ;)

Oh! A contest and one where the book sounds good! I know I've read over some and thought--no not for me!

LOL! It's funny how you call yourself cheap for not buying bookshelves but you buy new books all the time! You sound like me =D

Wow, that is an awesome contest! What a thoughtful way to make more room on your shelves. And I don't blame you on the bookshelves...they can be way expensive!!

I rationalize all the book buying by saying I'm "supporting the industy" ;). However, I can't bring myself to support Ikea... maybe someday!

I'm glad you guys are excited. Wondrous Strange really was a great read!
