Take Hachette to the Beach Giveaway
I don't know about you, but I look forward to going to the beach every summer. One of the main reasons is that I love to read while my family hangs out in the water! In honor of all of you who love beach reads, Hachette Book Group has graciously offered to giveaway a five book prize pack. Check out these fabulous titles:
Adam By Ted Dekker
The Island By Elin Hilderbrand -- A great beach book -- my review!
The Recessionistas By Alexandra Lebenthal
Rich Boy By Sharon Pomerantz
Backseat Saints By Joshilyn Jackson -- I loved this book -- my review!
To enter, all you have to do is leave a comment with a valid email address telling me which book most appeals to you! This contest will be open until Wednesday, July 14th at 11:59 p.m. ET, and I will notify the winner the following day. This giveaway is open to those of you with a U.S. or Canada mailing address only -- no p.o. boxes please. Good luck!
Well, I trust your reviews so I would say the one that I would like most is Backseat Saints because you loved it!

ReplyDeletesteven(dot)capell(at)gmail(dot)com
Bacseat Saints sounds good because it is about marriage where abuse is involved. That appeals to me since I can sympathize with the main character.

I'll have to go with "The Recessionistas", I just like to try to stay of top of mens' deception ways when it comes to finances.

The Recessionistas sounds most appealing to me!
ReplyDeletedanunepthys(at)hotmail(dot)com
They all look so interesting, The Island has a great cover, I want to read it for that alone!! But I'm most curious about Rich Boy! Who doesn't want to read the story of an underdog coming out on top (whatever the top is in his world) in the 70s of NY!! The cover looks fantastic, the storyline seems inspiring, and the Author is a teacher ( I visited the books website ) and I mean, c'mon... we gotta support our teachers of America!!!
