GIVEAWAY : Autumn Cleaning of YA Books

September 14th, 2009, @ 12:03 am Contest

As I was trying to fit all my YA on to the new shelf I got from a coworker who is moving to Mexico (!!), I started pulling out individual books that I really didn’t want anymore (for various reasons). Then I had to decide whether or not to give them away on my blog, or put them up on Bookmooch. Either way, I have to pay shipping and most of it goes to the US so it’s not like I save money one way over the other. The Bookmooch angle is helpful in that I get more points, BUT, nearly none of my wishlist is in stock and what little is on Bookmooch doesn’t get shipped to Canada. (Boo! Hiss!).

So… *drum roll*  Contest on my Blog!

The books up for grabs are:

I was going to paste the summaries in for the books, but that would take too long and make this post way too long. So if I have reviewed the book, I have linked to that review.

To Enter:

~ Leave a comment listing the books you want in order of preference

~ Announce this somewhere, somehow (& send me a link in separate comment) and you’ll get an extra entry!

There Will Be Three Winners (maybe*):

  1. First prize – 3 books
  2. Second prize -  2 books
  3. Third prize – 2 books

Open Internationally! (though I might take some time mailing out the books due to financial reasons, so if you don’t mind being patient…please enter!)

Contest Closes: September 21, 2009 @ 5:00 p.m. EDT. I will announce the winners on September 22 – the official Autumn Equinox (though I might not get it posted quite at 5:18 p.m. EDT, but I’ll try!)

It’s that simple! (though I might have made this complicated for myself…) Those other contests out there with all the points and whatnot, they confuse me and scare me. So I’m making this simple. I wasn’t going to ask for the advertising of the contest, because I feel awkward doing that, but heck, I’m going to stick it in. I know you have other things to write about on your blogs and twitter accounts than contest announcements. :)

What a lovely way to celebrate the official start of the Autumn season! I have a special love for the Solstices and Equinoxes so I thought this might be fun!

* Oh, and if there aren’t 3 books you want, or even two, and there’s just one, I might edit the way the winners are split. I’m gong to play this by ear since I don’t know what the demands might be for these books.

MondayMorning EDIT #1: if you do tweet you at @ reply me, too! @beyondelsewhere

MondayMorning EDIT #2: I automatically get your email address when you leave a comment, you do not need to post it in the comment section. I only say this because I worry about spambots finding you or scary people invading your privacy. :)
