Giveaway? Giveaway!

Guess what? Yesterday, my blog reached 1,000 hits!! Thanks to everyone who's been supporting me, I think I'm in love with you!

Obviously, I have to celebrate in some way, so I've decided to do a giveaway. Yes, a giveaway. Aren't you so excited?? You should be. I mean it. Be excited. I'll wait, I have time...

What is my giveaway you ask? Well, sexy reader, I'm giving away one brand new copy of The Name of the Star by the uber-talented Maureen Johnson!

It looks like this!
Please be patient with me, as I'm new to this whole giveaway "thing" and how it normally works. My next one will be more exciting, I'm sure.  ;)

All YOU have to do is fill out the form below and tell me your favorite YA book just because I'm curious. No, judging will NOT be based on your book choice, I'll be picking a winner at random. Now I, myself, may judge you but it has no effect on the outcome. Just kidding. I won't judge you, for I am a kindly, gentle lady.

This wonderful opportunity will end on October 5th at 6pm PST because I want it to. My will be done.

Oh! And I forgot to say this. I'll ship internationally, so this is not open to ONLY the US.

EDIT: A brilliant commenter came up with the idea of people posting their faves in the comments section. Why didn't I come up with that? I'm going to punish myself by staying off of Twitter for a whole minute...or maybe 30 seconds. So, if you are not shy and would like to do that, by all means, please do!

  8. It's incredibly hard to pick just one. but right now, I'd have to say, Shade by Jeri Smith-Ready. I just finished it and haven't been able to stop thinking about it.

  9. I am going to say my favorite is Twilight. Before picking it up in 2009 I was an avid reader BUT never reading anything new. I literally read the same 30 or so books off my booksshelf over and over for a decade. I did not realize how sad that was till reading Twilight ignited this desire to devour new books! So since then I have read hundreds of books, looking for the greats!

  15. Oops I just entered this twice because the blog post popped up again in my google reader again - which is really shouldn't have - odd - could you please remove my duplicate entry as it totally wasn't intended, I hate when people do that on my contests and I have to clean them out - so sorry about that!!

  16. just one question: this is international only? So if someone from US enters she/he can't win right? There are few international ones and I'm dying to get my hands on this book.

    Ana Lucia: It is also open to the US. Sorry for the confusing language. :)
