    Book Give-Away - The Emperor’s Children

    Sign up to win a HARD COVER edition of The Emperor’s Children, by Claire Messud

    Drawing will be held October 19th, 2008

    Messud’s wonderful novel was a New York Times Most Notable Book in 2006. I read it in December of 2007 and loved it (read my review). I’m giving away my hard cover copy of this book - it is like new!

    I will ship Internationally for this give-away.

    There are THREE options to enter this contest:

    I. For ONE entry - Blog about my fundraiser for Triple Creek Ranch by linking to my post about this event. Once you have blogged about the event, please come back here and leave me a comment with a link to your post.

    II. For THREE entries - SPONSOR me in the upcoming 24 Hour-Read-A-Thon on October 18th by committing to donate to my chosen Charity (Triple Creek Ranch). To do this, you must leave me a comment on this post, then go to my post about the event and sign up for your donation using Mr. Linky there - please let me know what your planned donation will be either in the comment OR with a link to your blog post about it.

    III. For FIVE entries: Do BOTH option I AND option II.

    Good luck!

      I’m not interested in the giveaway. I am just happy to hear of someone who liked this book. It’s been languishing in my TBR for some time because I have only heard negative reviews!
