MIDWINTER'S EVE GIVEAWAY HOP

Happy Holidays Everyone! I hope you're all having a great start to the holidays. I'm super excited because I am off work until January 2nd. We're having a quiet holiday at home this year. I'm planning to do some fun things with my daughter, write, and start on online Office 10 certification course for a job change I'll be doing in 2014 when my company sadly closes. And of course, I'm planning to read a pile of fantastic books.

Today I'm excited to participate in the Midwinter's Eve Giveaway Hop hosted by Bookhounds and I Am A Reader Not A Writer. I've got a great selection of hot YA titles for you to choose from. These are all ones I've alread read and really loved, except for one. THE COLDEST GIRL IN COLDTOWN is the only one I haven't read yet. My library has the audio book and I'm waiting for it to warm up enough to read while I walk. Click on the title for a blurb from Goodreads:

Here’s what’s coming up:

First, I wish you all a happy holiday season, whatever holidays you celebrate, and a Happy New Year! I hope we all have a happy year filled with good news and lots of great book reading.

This is my last post until January 6th.

On January 6th, I’m interviewing debut author Sara Larson and giving away an ARC of DEFY, her YA fantasy about a girl who impersonates a boy in the Prince’s guard to escape being sent to an awful breeding house. I love stories with strong female characters like in DEFY and this is a real page turner.

I've got other great interviews scheduled for January:

Rosamund Hodge and giveaway of CRUEL BEAUTY, a YA fairytale retelling

Stina Lindenblatt and giveaway of TELL ME WHEN, a NA contemporary romance dealing with issues of stalking and rape

Rachel Searles and giveaway of THE LOST PLANET, an upper MG sci-fi

And I'll be giving away other great books, including THE ENCHANTER'S HEIR and INTO THE STILL BLUE

My next giveaway hop will be February 1st.

So I hope to see you back here after the New Year! And thanks for being such fantastic followers. I really appreciate you all!
