2nd Annual Back to the Books Giveaway Hop!


Welcome to my stop on the Back to the Books Giveaway Hop! This Hop is hosted by I Am A Reader, Not A Writer and Buried in Books. I had so much fun with this giveaway hop last year, I decided to do it again! Unlike last year, I have decided to do this one as an international giveaway. Yay! So, without further ado, here is what you can win.

Prize Pack 1: As I was thinking of what to give away for a back to school type thing, I was reminded of some of my favorite required reads. So for the first option, I'm giving away all of these favorite school reads!
(click on the covers for more information about the books)

Prize Pack 2: After being reminded of awesome books I read in school, I started thinking of books with awesome schools.  Now you have a chance to win these books with schools I wish I could claim as my own!
(click on the covers for more information about the books)

I'm very fond of these prize packs (three books, what?!), and I hope there is something for everyone. As I mentioned before, this is an international giveaway (as long as the Book Depository ships to your country). I'll send an email to the winner and they will have 48 hours to reply with their address and choice of prize pack. So just enter in the Rafflecopter below and good luck! (If the Rafflecopter isn't working for some reason, please email me.)

    I love books set in boarding schools, especially girls' boarding schools, because then I can live vicariously through the characters. =) I'd recommend What Katy Did at School and And Both Were Young.

    No surprise that I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the second prize pack! ;-) Thank you for this chance!

    Hmmmm Hogwarts is pretty damn cool though I wouldn't be opposed to one of those contemporary high schools where there seem to be an abundance of hot guys... is that too unrealistic? ;)

    I have all the books in the first prize pack (they're totally MY favorites too!!!), so I'd opt for the second :) Thanks so much for the giveaway!

    OH and fun reads... I recently read an advanced copy of The Other Normals by Ned Vizzini (review to come!) — cute YA book, one of those books reluctant readers will love.

  35. Although I already own all the Harry Potter books, I'd definitely go with Prize Pack 2 because the other two books sound awesome! Especially Withering Heights!
    Some of my favourite school reads include Z for Zachariah (I must have been 9 or 10 when I read it and I found it so powerful. I'd love to read it again!
    And then when I was an older student (17 I think), I feel in love with Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale. A fantastic dystopian tale. A true classic.
    Ans as for the fictional school I'd like to attend, well it's got to Hogwarts hasn't it? That would be just too cool!!

  51. Early in school I loved to read Enid Blyton, particularly her Famous Five series. I also really enjoyed The Chronicles of Narnia, Harry Potter and the Alex Rider series, I would read pretty much anything I could get my hands on!

    Of course I'd love to go to Hogwarts! Who hasn't dreamed of flying on broomsticks and transforming the world with a wave of their wand? A school of magic would be totally amazing!

    I think prize pack number two sounds amazing, though I'd be happy with either. Thank you so much for this amazing giveaway!

    I think I'd choose prize 2, thank you for this giveaway and a chance to win:)
