October Giveaway
by Jenners • 10/01/2010 • Giveaway • 21 Comments
I’m giving away five books in my October Giveaway. Here is how the giveaway will work:
- You can enter to win one or all the books BUT you must list them in the order of your preference (1st choice, 2nd choice, 3rd choice, 4th choice, 5th choice).
- At the end of October, I will pick five winners using Random.org. The first winner chosen will get their first choice of book. The second winner will get their first choice of book — as long as it wasn’t already chosen by the first winner; in which case they will get their second choice of book — and so on and so forth — until all the books are given away.
Here are the books up for grabs!
In The Woods by Tana French
An involving police procedural and murder mystery with strong characterization and writing. But if you don’t like ambiguous endings, this book might not be for you.
Case Histories by Kate Atkinson
A multilayered, humorous and compelling mystery. The first in a series featuring detective Jackson Brodie.
Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides
An ambitious, hilarious, touching, wild, generation-spanning Pulitzer-Prize winning novel that just thrilled me to pieces.
What The Dead Know by Laura Lippman
A mystery with an emphasis on character development. A standalone book by the author of the Tess Monaghan series.
Sum: Forty Tales of the Afterlives by David Eagleman
A quirky collection of forty possible afterlives imagined by neuroscientist David Eagleman. Very different but thought-provoking and fascinating.
To enter, simply fill out the form below.






This is an awesome giveaway, Jenners. I’m not familiar with Sum: Forty Tales from the Afterlives but all the other books are on my tbr. You have fantastic taste!
Thank you!

Thanks. I try to only offer giveaways for books I really enjoyed. Good luck!
I love your book giveaways! Good luck to all!
Here’s wishing you extra special luck, my friend!
How fun! I really like your new blog btw .
Seems this fits you very well!!!
I’m loving this new blog. The commenting system, the features of WordPress, not trying to generate content for two blogs. It is all good!
Great giveaway! I have read In The Woods and Middlesex both of which are excellent, but any of the other three would be a treat to win!
Fantastic giveaway
Great giveaway, I would love to win Tana French, In the Woods.
I won once. Perhaps I’ll win again!
Thanks for offering these!
what an *amazing* giveaway! *sigh* i heart books.
I heart books too! Good luck!
Oh, how cool that when I filled out the form a little box came up and said good luck!
I love WordPress so much. Even the forms can be made to be polite.
I so want to read In the Woods after your raving review. I loved Middlesex too.
Both are FANTASTIC and you can’t go wrong.
What a fantastic selection of books! I’ve not read any of them (well, I’ve read a few passages from Sum and LOVED them), but they are all on my TBR list. I’d be thrilled to win any one of them! Thanks for the chance!
Best of luck!
Thanks for another terrific giveaway. Good luck to all who enter.
What a great giveaway, I just entered!! I have Tana French on my night table (I know, I’m an idiot for not having read it yet….)
Good luck … and get reading Tana French!
