It's March 1, which means it's my birthday month! To celebrate, I want to give YOU something. Once a week, for the next four weeks, I am going to be giving away a signed copy of a book I love.

This week, I am giving away a book that was one of my most anticipated titles of 2009--a book that totally lived up to all my expectations and excitement.

Bones of Faerie by Janni Lee Simner



If you've been hanging around here for a while, you've probably heard me rave about this book. I reviewed it over here, but honestly, what's not to love about a Post-Apocalyptic YA Faerie Novel? (You can read Invasive Species, a short story that takes place in the same apocalypse, to give you a taste of what you have to look forward to.) And now you can have your very own copy, signed by the author (the fabulous, talented and wonderful [livejournal.com profile] janni!)

So here's how to enter:

1. Comment here. If you don't have an LJ, please leave an email address in your comment so I can contact you if you win.
2. If you link to this giveaway somewhere in a public post or blog entry or message board, comment here with the link and you'll get another entry.
3. Review a teen or middle grade novel published in 2009 in a public post or blog entry (GoodReads, LibraryThing and other book-specific sites don't count!), and comment here with the link, for another entry.

I'll select a winner next Sunday, March 8. This giveaway is open to people with US mailing addresses only, sorry!

Good luck!

Ohh! This is on my must read list, thanks to you! I'd love to win this copy.

Also, what a neat idea! :)

Does it count if I have a US mailing address?

If I can mail it to the US, you're eligible! I changed the wording to make that more obvious :).

Count me interested. :)

Well then, color me interested!

(The previous version was obvious enough, it just cast a somewhat wider net. I guess people in Cuba wouldn't be eligible?)

Does this count as a review? It's short, but sweet? Sadly the only YA book I've read and reviewed in 2009 was a disappointment. :(

I've modified the guidelines to indicate that the review needs to be posted in a blog or LJ to garner an entry--I'm hoping to get the word out about good books, so book-specific sites, where people are reviewing all the time, sort of feels like cheating.

Sorry for not being specific enough!

Well, I don't do much reviewing in my LJ, so just the one entry for me! :)

Oh. I'd really love this book. I just finished reading Kathi Appelt's THE UNDERNEATH (an A+ wonderful middle grade). I'll review it this week and let you know when I've posted the review.

Oh, I can't not try it, not since you made this book sound so delightful and I haven't found a library copy yet.

Twittering definitely counts! Extra entry for you! :)

Oooh, please enter me! Bones of Faerie has been on my TBR list since it came out, and I haven't gotten around to purchasing it yet... :)
