OMG A GIVEAWAY

I swore to myself up and down that I wasn't going to do a giveaway when I reached 100 followers. Buck the trend! I thought. Hold a giveaway when you reach 137 followers! Hold it when you actually have something worth giving away!

But now I've reached this point, and I realized two things: First, I am pretty pleased with myself for making it to 100. This day seemed eons away when I first started writing here back in November. Second, so what if I don't have a coveted ARC or a signed copy of something? I can give away whatever I want. And then I looked like this:


I can give away whatever I want? This allows me to do two awesome things at once: 1) Support a book that I love, and 2) Impose my literary tastes on an avid reader. Win, and a win.

So folks, here it is:

The First Annual 
Rachel-Imposes-Her-Taste-On-Hapless-Readers 
Giveaway!!!

I'm offering a choice of one of two books that I loved recently:

by Andrew Smith


or 

by Patrick Ness


Both of these books are unique and spectacular. To enter, please fill out the form below. I'll spot you extra points if you Tweet or blog this, but there's no need to go bananas with the publicity.

Contest runs until Friday, April 1st at 11:59 p.m. PST and is open to everyone, everywhere. Don't be shy, sign up!

    Congrats on making it to 100! I love the imposing of literary tastes--though maybe I'm biased, because I think ours overlap!
