A Half Way Hiatus + Giveaway!! - CLOSED

CONTEST IS CLOSED! THANKS FOR THOSE WHO ENTERED!

For all of May and quite possibly June, I will be on a half way hiatus. The reason why it's half way is because there will still be posts going on here due to ARC tours and some Rock This! Thursday interviews I've set up with authors. I'm doing this for two reasons:

1. I want to focus on my novel. My characters are going to show up on my front door with pitch forks if I don't finish telling their story. 

2. For the past couple of weeks every time I look at my bookcase or review pile, I groan. Books should never make me do that.

So there will still be posts up, but I won't really be around to comment on other blogs, doing any memes, and will be MIA from twitter - at least I hope. That place can be the black hole sometimes. 

In my leave, I'm giving away some books! Please read the directions carefully. Entries that do follow the directions will be deleted from the giveaway.


What can you win?

1 winner will get 4 ARCs from Egmont + Swag!
  • Dark Divine by Bree Despain
  • Scones and Sensibility by Lindsay Eland
  • The Cinderella Society by Kay Cassidy
  • Brightly Woven by Alexandra Bracken
  • Assortment of bookmarks
Details on entering:
  • Anyone over the age of 13
  • Anyone who lives in the US or has a US mailing address. I would love to send out of the country but I'm poor. Sorry. 
  • The giveaway will be ending sometime in May! I really haven't decided when yet.
  • If you have any questions, feel free to email me: justyourtypicalbookblog(at)hotmail.com
