Giveaway Time!!!


Did you know that paperback books were introduced on this day back in 1935. That means that paperback books have only been around for 73 years. I know it seems odd to say only and 73 years together, but I guess I would have thought that paperback books would have been around a lot longer.

So, anyway, to celebrate this special day (Can you tell I love books?) I thought I would give away a paperback novel that I loved. I am actually anxiously awaiting the sequel to this novel. Are you curious as to which novel it is? Well.....

it is 'Searching for Spice' by Megan DiMaria.

You can read a little bit about this novel here.

If you want to win, and you know you do, simply leave me a comment, and I will enter your name in the drawing. Want to be entered twice? Just mention this contest on your blog (feel free to snag the button above), and make sure to leave me a comment so I know that you have done so. I will drop by to verify and say hello, and then I will enter your name in the drawing twice. How easy is that? :-)

If you don't win, I still highly suggest you read this novel. If you do, I know that you too will be anxiously awaiting the sequel, 'Out of Her Hands,' which is due out in October.

Here's to many more years of wonderfully written paperbacks!

**The drawing will take place on Wednesday August 13th.**
