MERRY CHRISTMAS, bookworms! I hope you’re all having a wonderful time with family and friends and lots of good food, celebrating the birth of Jesus. I know I’ll be having a blast. (Writing this on Christmas Eve.) In fact, if you’re reading this maybe you’re even on a new electronic or spending a lazy post-Christmas day lounging around reading your favorite blog. Because what else would you want to do?
Since 2015 is coming to a close (man that is CRAZY. I blinked and what happened!) I thought I’d do an end-of-the-year survey, so I can make my blog better for you and see what I’m doing right. This is your chance to be 100% honest, since the survey is anonymous. If you could, take two minutes to answer a few questions for me. And then you’ll have an entry into the GIVEAWAY coming up! (Imagine virtual confetti in the air, okay?)
(If the survey doesn’t work below, you can also take it here.)
NOW. Since you’re all such fabulous bookworms, dahlings, I thought what better way to celebrate Christmas than to give YOU a gift! I want you to know how much you mean to me and how much fun I have doing this blog and talking to you all. So thanks for being such fun to chat with. Are you ready to see what you could get?!
The summer Hattie turns 12, her predictable smalltown life is turned on end when her uncle Adam returns home for the first time in over ten years. Hattie has never met him, never known about him. He’s been institutionalized; his condition invovles schizophrenia and autism. Hattie, a shy girl who prefers the company of adults, takes immediately to her excitable uncle, even when the rest of the family — her parents and grandparents — have trouble dealing with his intense way of seeing the world. And Adam, too, sees that Hattie is special, that her quiet, shy ways are not a disability.
I will be giving away a copy of my favorite book of 2015 (A Corner of The Universe by Ann M. Martin!) AND, for international readers as well, a $10 Barnes & Noble gift card! That’s two seperate giveaways, which means TWO of you will be winning something! But of course, as always, there are a few rules:
- The giveaways start December 25, 2015 and ends January 15, 2016.
- I will email the winners no later than January 16. If I do not get a reply within 48 hours, I will have to pick another winner.
- I will be shipping a paperback copy of A Corner of the Universe and emailing the gift card.
- The giveaway entries are hosted by Rafflecopter, and the website will pick a random winner when it is over.
- If I find that anyone is cheating the system, they will be disqualified immediately.
- I am not responsible for lost or stolen packages.
- U.S. residents only, please, for the copy of A Corner of the Universe.
