• October Giveaway

    by  • 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!

        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!

      I so want to read In the Woods after your raving review. I loved Middlesex too.

      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!
