Back to the Books Giveaway Hop!

*GIVEAWAY IS OVER*



It's that time! My FIRST EVER giveaway combined with my FIRST EVER Hop! I am so excited, you have no idea. The Back to the Books Giveaway Hop is hosted by I Am A Reader, Not A Writer and Buried In Books and will be running from September 1-7. I am so excited to be a part of this Hop and I hope everyone has a blast!

So I have a few options for ya'll. The first two are the FIRST books in a series.

One is from a series I absolutely love. I love spreading the love of books I, well, love. So yes, book option 1 is a paperback copy of City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments book 1) by Cassandra Clare! If you'd like some paranormal romance, action, drama and pure awesomeness, pick this one!

Book option 2 is one that I've heard amazing things about, but have yet to read: a paperback of Uglies (Uglies book 1) by Scott Westerfeld. If dystopias are your thing (I know I love them), this might just be the one for you... besides, I'd love to fall in love with a new series with ya!



Options 3 and 4 are the LAST books in a series. Now I know this sounds like a weird idea, but I wanted to do this to maybe entice someone to read the series. I mean, I know when I get a last/middle book, I like to check out the previous ones. These last two options are books I quite enjoyed, so I hope someone else will like it too.

Anyway... book option 3 is from a splendidly ridiculous and absolutely hilarious series: a paperback of Are These My Basoomas I See Before Me? (Confessions of Georgia Nicolson book 10) by Louise Rennison. If you're looking for a quick, goofy getaway series, this is definitely one to choose. I'm laughing just thinking about it!

And last but not least, the 4th book option is a hardcover of Blessed (Tantalize book 3) by Cynthia Leitich Smith. If you think you might enjoy a vampire/angel/were-creature novel full of interesting mythology and mysteries, check this one out!



Now for the rules/directions... dun Dun DUN! Okay, but seriously. Since I'm new to this whole hosting-a-giveaway thing, I'm going to make it super easy for you to win 1 of these 4 books. All you have to do is leave a comment with your email address. That's it! For an extra entry, you can tweet about my giveaway and add the tweet link thingie in the comment along with your email. Pretty simple, isn't it? I will not require you to be a follower, but it is definitely appreciated. Just a little note, if I get enough followers, I might just draw another name/do another giveaway... just so's ya know. (Remember, this is a US only giveaway. However, if you have a US address, that works too. Must be 13 or older to enter. Contest ends on September 7th and I'll draw a name on or around the 8th.) Good luck!

Thanks for stopping by and happy reading!

    Thanks for having such a great giveaway. Those are some wonderful book choices! I'd probably choose Uglies by Scott Westerfield. I've heard a lot of good things about that series but haven't had a chance to read it yet. I'm happy to be a new follower and I look forward to enjoying your reviews!

    Hi!

    Great idea to offer 4 choices! Wish I'd thought of doing that.

    What a hard choice: I love Cassandra Clare so I'm going to choose City of Bones.
