ABC Reading Challenge: April GIVEAWAY!

Hi guys, and welcome to another month of the ABC Reading Challenge! For those of you that are unaware, it's where you read a book that's released in 2012 and that begins with each letter of the alphabet from A-Z. Yes, I realise books starting with X Y or Z will be near to impossible to find but try your best! And if you do manage to hit 26 books, you're just awesome and you may just win a fabulous prize! More details of the challenge can be found here.

I hope that everyone is well into their reading and gone through around 9 Letters of the alphabet so far. Have you? Have you? Have you? I know I have. Which is a very great surprise seeing as I haven't done as much reading and near to most of the books that I have read start with the letter O!

Back to the post, we have another giveaway to offer to all you nice people of this challenge. This time, I decided to make it prom themed and a prize pack consisting of three books!

Here is what you can win:

Illuminate by Aimee Agresti

Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick by Joe Schreiber

Jessica’s Guide to Dating on the Dark Side by Beth Fantaskey

Not bad right?

Here are the RULES:

This giveaway is only open to PARTICIPANTS of the ABC Reading Challenge.

NO FORM. All participants are automatically entered into the prize draw. Sorry for the rest of you guys, however if you want to be entered in the giveaway, you can always sign up for the ABC Reading challenge at THIS POST.

Lastly, the winner will be picked at the end of the month!

Thanks & Happy Reading :)

Giveaway: The Duff by Kody Keplinger!

CONTEST CLOSED.
It's been quite a while since my last giveaway. Since I just love all my readers and appreciate all your support I thought it was about time I give you a little treat. As you can see, today I've decided to giveaway a copy of The Duff by Kody Keplinger. I actually haven't read it as to yet. I am very eager to get into it however, it sounds like such a great read. Don't ya think? So if you would like to grab the copy, just enter the giveway for a chance to win win win!

Seventeen-year-old Bianca Piper is cynical and loyal, and she doesn’t think she’s the prettiest of her friends by a long shot. She’s also way too smart to fall for the charms of man-slut and slimy school hottie Wesley Rush. In fact, Bianca hates him. And when he nicknames her “the Duff,” she throws her Coke in his face.
But things aren’t so great at home right now, and Bianca is desperate for a distraction. She ends up kissing Wesley. Worse, she likes it. Eager for escape, Bianca throws herself into a closeted enemies-with-benefits relationship with him.
Until it all goes horribly awry. It turns out Wesley isn’t such a bad listener, and his life is pretty screwed up, too. Suddenly Bianca realizes with absolute horror that she’s falling for the guy she thought she hated more than anyone.

Oh and not forgetting,

UK/EU Summer Giveaway Hop

COM

Hey guys!

As you can see I'm participating in the UK/EU Summer Giveaway Hop. It's a great giveaway hosted by Donna and Jessica @ Book Passion for Life and Jodie @ Books for Company

UK/EU Summer Hop is an idea which came to mind after seeing so many blog hops happening around the world. As we know how it is being counted as international residents ourselves, we know how it is to miss out a lot on the US/CA giveaways. Therefore we feel that it's time to focus on us in UK and Europe. We know that shipping is quite expensive from US to Europe and of course it runs both ways. The thing is that we still do miss out more often than not, so here's our chance being in the spotlight!

Since the idea came around we have been planning the giveaway, which will take place between Monday 1st August and Monday 8th August, 2011. Each blogger who is taking part has a certain genre of books to give away and each giveaway will be posted on the same day and ending the same day, lasting for a total of 7 days

Now that introductions are over, let's go to what you can win! There are going to be two prize packs and you can enter for both or for one!
