!!!!!!!!!!!!!!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!

Congrats!! 100 is quite an accomplishment!! Yeah!!
Ohhhh – SO hard to pick just two – If I win (crossing fingers, don’t think blowing out a birthday candle would work, ’cause its not my birthday!) I would LOVE to read The Other Queen by Philippa Gregory (I just love her books, and haven’t read this one yet) and the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society.
I am posting a link to your giveaway under the giveaway section of my blog here:

I never win when there are so many people, but I’ll throw my name in ’cause there’s a first time for everything.
Like Wendi, my first picks would be either The Other Queen or the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society.

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!
[Reply]
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.
[Reply]
Such fun. Please count me in.
1. Alive in Necropolis
2. Down to a Sunless Sea

I’ll try it! Put me in for:

“The Other Queen” and “The Last Queen”. Anything historical fiction is what intrigues me. This is a great contest and very exciting for so many entries! I wish that many people would enter my contest, lol.
I’m having a huge giveaway of more than 22 books right now, so if you know anyone curious. Just letting you know. Thank you for providing these. I’m going to have to go and see some of your reviews now.
