100 Follower Giveaway!

Well, well, well, what do we have here?
A giveaway?
No. Not just any giveaway.

A 100 Follower Giveaway!!!

Well guys, when I started out my blog it was kind of hard to imagine that I’d have any followers (aside from the friends that I blackmailed), let alone 100. So to celebrate, I’m holding a giveaway! There will be 13 winners. Want to know what you can win? Well, scroll down and look at the lovely pictures, you awesome reader, you. If you win, you get to pick from...

A signed copy of Ironside, by Holly Black

Photobucket Photobucket

A 50th Anniversary Redwall box set, which contains books 1-3 and a pack of collectable trading cards

Photobucket Photobucket

An ARC of The Clockwork Three by Matthew Kirby

Photobucket

Graceling by Kristen Cashore, The Golden Compass by Phillip Pullman, and Tyger Tyger by Kersten Hamilton
(each is an individual prize. Sorry, no, I’m not giving them away as a pack)

Photobucket

The Awakening by Kelly Armstrong, Shadow Hills by Anastasia Hopcus, and Devil’s Kiss by Sarwat Chadda
(again, each is an individual prize)

Photobucket

A signed copy of Boneshaker and a signed copy of Dreadnought by Cherie Priest
(each is an individual prize—I’m starting to sound like a broken record...)

Photobucket

The first two books of The Arthur Trilogy by Kevin Crossley-Holland—The Seeing Stone (signed) and At the Crossing Places (sadly not signed, but yes, you get both of them as one prize!)

Photobucket

And last, but not least…
The complete first season of True Blood on DVD! It's gently used, but no worries, everything works in tip top shape and looks like it’s brand new.

Photobucket

So now that we’ve got that boring stuff out of the way, lets get down to the rules.

I have three: You must be a follower, you must live in the US (I’m so sorry guys, I can’t afford to ship anything elsewhere…), and to enter, you must leave a comment WITH your email address.

Great selection! Personally, I'm aiming for the copy of Graceling or Shadow Hills, though if one of those adorable octopus models were thrown in I don't think anyone could complain! They're fantastic - I swear they're related to Vanna! There'd better be a raise in their future ;D

+1 like on Facebook (I currently have a plushie in my picture - that should narrow it down. ;D)
+1 favorite: Just one? I guess I'll have to go with Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy for sci-fi. Harry Potter all the way for fantasy.

Congrats on 100+ followers!! Also, happy almost birthday. :) Less than one month away now! My favorite sci-fi or fantasy book is tough to choose. I love so many of them... so instead of telling you just one I will list a couple that popped into my head right away. Harry Potter series, Enders Game series (Bean's POV is my fave!), Furies of Calderon Series, The Host (even though it hardly counts as sci-fi), Eragon series (still waiting on the 4th!), and MANY many more... :) Thanks!
