Inspired by the lovely Megan Crane – author of English as a Second Language, Everyone Else’s Girl, Frenemies (which i’m currently reading. finally) and Names My Sisters Call Me – who is having a contest on her blog where she picks 3 lucky bloggers for a chance to win an amazon book of your choice, under $10.
So today, I’m going to spread the wealth, pay it forward if you will. I’m a huge book nerd, anyone who knows me knows this. I live for books, amazon.com is my vice (along with red wine, and woodchuck/magners ciders but thats another story) so this month, to ring in the holiday season, I’m going to do my own Amazon.com give away.
Leave a comment here with a book you’d like – $12 or under – by November 22nd, and I will announce the winner on November 23rd through a random drawing. The book you choose, must be available to be sent through Amazon Prime so make sure it’s new and in print

This is so great! I’d love to get the book “Watership Down” by Richard Adams. My daughter has been dying to read it
Thank you for the great contest
My choice is New Moon by Stephenie Meyer. I have the other three Twilight books in hardcover but for some reason I’ve never gotten around to getting the second installment in hardcover.
My choice is Twilight by Stephanie Meyer…I still haven’t gotten on the bandwagon yet, but I can’t wait to see what the fuss is all about!

‘Good Things’ by Mia King…. chick lit at its finest!!
I’d love to have My Horizontal Life: A Collection of One-Night Stands by Chelsea Handler!
I would love to get Paper Towns by John Green~ Everyone is raving about it on goodreads!

I don’t know if I’m allowed to say this…but the Quidditch Through the Ages+Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them box set by JK Rowling. It’s definitely under 12 dollars, but if that’s not allowed then Harry, A History by Melissa Anelli. I just love Harry Potter x] Great giveaway!
Only one book!? So hard to choose. I’ll go for the next on my “to read” list; Digging to America, by Anne Tyler. Great idea, lovely.
I would love Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See. What a great idea for a contest!

fun!
I’m going with Angel Girl, by Laurie Friedman. It’s a childrens story, but I’ve been wanting it. It’s a newish book, but about a couple who survived a Nazi labor camp.

Maybe I’ll do a contest of my own….
What a great contest!!!
I’m going to go with A Thousand Splendid Suns, by Khaled Hosseini, since it’s just coming out in paperback in a few days and I’ve been wanting to read it since it came out!!!
I would love to read Prep or any of the other Curtis Sittenfeld books because I enjoyed American Wife.
This is great!! I’ve really been tempted to read Twilight lately…
I love books too! I would love “Amazing Grace” by Danielle Steel.

I’d like to enter but there aren’t any books I’m dying to read right now. I always love recommendations though so if I win how about you just surprise me.
This is such a great idea! I actually started building out my “classics” library so if I were to win, I’d love to add either Tender is the Night or This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald to my collection.
I agree with Maxie — Chelsea Handler’s first book! I almost went and bought it yesterday. Great idea, Heidi!
And congrats on your marathon! You are a braver woman than I….
YAY! I was JUST thinking that someone should buy me a book.
I’d like the first Twilight book. Yes, that’s the sound of me giving in.

Wow, what a great contest. Once yours is over, I really want to do the same for the holidays. Hope you don’t mind me stealing your idea
(I’ll give you credit!)
Okay, and as for a book…
“Paint it Black” by Janet Fitch. I JUST realized she has a newer book. Where was it?!
I would love to read ” Nefertiti: A Novel ”
by Michelle Moran
Will Shortz Presents The Little Luxe Book of Sudoku: 335 Easy to Hard Puzzles (Spiral-bound) Please!!!!
I read a lot too… I’ve actually bought my last 2 books based on what you are reading and the reviews ie: American Wife and Love Walked in.
oh what a fun contest.
for a book i would love to get “Lucky” by Alice Sebold, I hear it’s amazing and I would love to check it out.
i would like to read “the story of edgar sawtelle” – it’s oprah’s latest pick!
I am going to choose a Megan Crane book, because I’ve read “Frenemies” and “Names My Sisters Call me” and I loved them. So I’ll go with “Everyone Else’s Girl.”
I’d have to go with the first Twilight book so that I can read it and see what all the fuss is about!
