!!!!!!!!!!!!!!100th Review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This contest is now closed.
It is official! ”The River, By Moonlight,” was the 100th review I have published on my blog!
Yay!!!
To celebrate, I want to share with some of my loyal readers some of the wonderful books I have read since starting this blog.
Before I show you all of the books you can win, here are the rules:
- There will be anywhere between one and five winners a total of six seven eight winners, depending on the number of entrants. I will give away one prize up to the first 20 people who enter (separate people, not the number of entries). Two prizes for up to 30, three for up to 40, four for up to 50, five for anything over 50. I am adding an extra book for every additional 25 entrants. We just hit 75 100 125, so now there are 16 17 18 books available to 6 7 8 people (two three four will get one book each). So, get other people to enter, it will actually increase your chances.
- First place prize will be a grab-bag of 5 books, second prize 4, third prize 3, fourth prize 2, fifth, and sixth, and seventh, and eighth prize 1 book.
- To enter: Leave a message ON THIS POST ONLY telling me your top two picks from the list (I will try to give all winners at least one of their choices, but no promises).
- For additional entries: Blog about this contest for an extra 3 chances to win. If you don’t have a blog, send an email to 5 people about this contest and blind copy me at devourers.books(at)gmail.com for those same three extra chances.
- For MORE additional entries: Every comment left on a book review or a banned book spotlight post AFTER you enter here, you will get another entry.
- Shipping: I will ship these books internationally, but I can only ship in the international flat rate package. I may have to send you either fewer books or thinner books, but I will send you as much as I can.
- This contest will close Wednesday, October 15th.
Okay, okay, enough of the rules! I’m sure at this point you want to know what you can win! Five of these books are hardback, I would love to send one to each winner, because (with the exception of The Other Queen), these are all books that I had to go to Half Price Books and buy for this contest, because I was absolutely not willing to give them up. Please click on the book titles to read reviews. ”The best Place to Be” and “The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society” do not have reviews posted yet.
Hardcovers:
Paperbacks:
Due to a much larger response than I expected (75 entrants in little more than 48 hours), I am adding another book to the pile, which means there will now be six winners, two of whom will each be getting one book. The new book I’m adding is this one (click on the cover for my review):
If we make it to 100 entrants, I will find yet another book to add and add one more 5th place winner.
Okay, so we made 100 24 hours later. Here’s the next title:
We have finally reached 125 people entering, so here’s the next title:
If another 25 people enter, I’ll have to figure something else out!
none
Stumble It!

That’s a lot of reviews, sounds like you’re having fun though. My top two picks would have to be ‘American Savior’ by Roland Merullo and ‘The Other Queen’ by Philippa Gregory. Merullo’s ‘American Savior’ looks to be especially amusing.
September 29th, 2008 at 2:39 pm
Congrats! The Other Queen and The Last Queen look interesting.

September 29th, 2008 at 4:06 pm
I would love The Last Queen and The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society!
September 29th, 2008 at 5:03 pm
Congratulations on your 100th review! That is quite an achievement! You’re an inspiration.
I love historical fiction, and I just got a new student to tutor in literacy who happens to be a young man recently arrived from Istanbul, so I’d be very interested in getting “The Aviary Gate.” Another novel that I think would be good is “The Last Queen.”
BTW, I enjoyed your review of “The Handmaid’s Tale.” When I read it first back in I think the 70s, it really got to me. What an amazing novel from an amazing author.
September 29th, 2008 at 5:10 pm
Great contest! My top 2 choices are Sweetsmoke and Sarah’s Key.
September 29th, 2008 at 5:31 pm
Oh, yeah, I’ll post about this contest on both my blogs at http://storeetllrsanythingblog.blogspot.com and http://justonemorepageblog.blogspot.com.

This is such an awesome giveaway! Here’s where I posted about it on my blog: http://heatherlo.wordpress.com/2008/09/29/winner-of-matrimony-and-some-other-giveaway-news/
and my top two would be The Last Queen and Sarah’s Key.
September 29th, 2008 at 6:05 pm
regina’s closet and creeper sound really good! thanks for the opportunity!
September 29th, 2008 at 6:35 pm
Congratulations on a great achievement! It will be a long long time before I get up to 100 reviews on my blog!
I would love to be entered in your giveaway, and my selections would be Sweetsmoke and Sarah’s Key.
I have recently read The Last Queen and would recommend it to anyone that has a penchant for historical fiction, particularly of the Tudor period, as it is wonderful to see a shadowy figure that gets passing mention in other books, get a chance to tell her own tale.
September 29th, 2008 at 7:04 pm
My top 2 picks would be: Eleanor and Ike, and The River By Moonlight. Thanks!
September 29th, 2008 at 7:26 pm

September 29th, 2008 at 8:53 pm
Definitely, definitely, definitely Monique & the Mango Rains! And after that, perhaps The River, by Moonlight. I’ve been hearing a lot of very good things about both of those.
September 29th, 2008 at 9:16 pm
Congrats Jen!! My two top picks would be The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, and Sweetsmoke simply because the cover looks awesome!
September 29th, 2008 at 11:52 pm

Congrats! Like many, I would love to win Creepers or The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society. I already have the Alive in Necropolis ARC, but anything else would make my day.
Also, as a side note, did anyone else recognize the cover of Regina’s Closet as a recycling of the cover art on Alexandra Styron’s (daughter of William Styron) All the Finest Girls?

[...] September has come and gone and I’ve read another 20 books. Months and Seasons was the 100th book that I read this year (at least since I started keeping count on the first of March) and I am currently on track to read nearly 160 books in the last 10 months of this year. I was already planning on revising my goal for next year from 100 to 150, but I may have to consider 175. We will see what the new year holds, I suppose. The River, By Moonlight was the 100th review I posted on this blog (which is why I’m holding a huge contest, see details here). [...]
October 5th, 2008 at 12:27 pm
Those are some great books you have there! I’d love to be entered for a chance to win. My top pick is Creepers by Joanne Dahme. Then Alive in Necropolis by Doug Dorst.
I’ve wanted to read Creepers for awhile now, but my library doesn’t have it. Alive in Necropolis looks like a very unusual book, i’d love to read it! I posted a blog here, so i hope that gets you more people viewing your blog (and entering this contest!): http://hylianvampire.livejournal.com/2822.html

What a fun contest. I really enjoyed reading the reviews - I like your style; a brief summary and then a personal reaction to the book.
I was drawn to Sweetsmoke and The Gifted Gabaldon Sisters.
Thanks for the contest that introduced me to your reviews!
October 6th, 2008 at 8:21 pm
I feel like I’ve said this five times today, so what’s once more, especially when it’s well deserved. This is amazing.
This is truly amazing. And after re-reviewing your reviews, I’d like to entered for The Aviary Gate by Kate Hickman, and since I’ve read another book on Darfur, and Tears of the Desert happens to already fall on my list to get, I’d like to enter for that as well.
Thanks for this awesome giveaway! I don’t know how you do it.
October 6th, 2008 at 10:00 pm
