Update (As of February 9, 2012)

Hi everyone! Things have been a wee bit hectic with prelims coming soon. I've read loads of books meanwhile, and hope to post more reviews soon rather than leaving them in Draftsland. Thanks for all your support and encouragement. Authors/publicists: I'm currently not accepting any review requests as stated in the updated policy, but I do so appreciate that you consider this blog a worthy avenue for your books.

150 followers contest: Closed

on Monday, 29 June 2009
This contest is closed.

Yep, this blog reached 150 followers. Thanks everyone! (L) In honour of such a momentous occasion *wipes tear* I'm giving away Academy 7.

Academy 7

Winner 1:
With a past too terrible to speak of, and a bleak, lonely future ahead of her, Aerin Renning is shocked to find she has earned a place at the most exclusive school in the universe. Aerin excels at Academy 7 in all but debate, where Dane Madousin—son of one of the most powerful men in the Alliance— consistently outtalks her. Fortunately Aerin consistently outwits him at sparring. They are at the top of their class until Dane jeopardizes everything and Aerin is unintentionally dragged down with him. When the pair is given a joint punishment, an unexpected friendship—and romance—begins to form. But Dane and Aerin both harbor dangerous secrets, and the two are linked in ways neither of them could ever have imagined. . . .

Winner 2:
Eyes Like Stars
Eyes Like Stars.

Winner 3:
An Abundance of Katherines
An Abundance of Katherines

To enter:
Leave as many comments as you want. Make sure I can contact you!

If I get more than 50 comments for this, I'll add another book/winner.
Another 25 after that, another winner.
Another 25 after that... well, you get the point.
I might add other prizes and other winners as we go along if my budget permits it. ;)
Open internationally.

I love contests like this that the only rule they have is to leave comments for more chances to win.

It really doesn't depend on the host on the contest, but on the amount of vital comments your willing to make!
