Armchair BEA-Day 2-Giveaways Galore!

Well, I am having a blast, hope all of you are, too. Welcome to day two of Armchair BEA and Giveaways Galore! I've got two giveaways today.

Giveaway #1

Signed copy of I'M NOT HER by Janet Gurtler. I interviewed Janet here. You can find her website here. Oh---here is a guest post she did about voice (and boy did she capture voice in her book) on Seeing Creative. Finally, here is an interview I did with her. 

From Good Reads:
Tess is the exact opposite of her beautiful, athletic sister. And that’s okay. Kristina is the sporty one, Tess is the smart one, and they each have their place. Until Kristina is diagnosed with cancer. Suddenly Tess is the center of the popular crowd, everyone eager for updates. There are senior boys flirting with her. Yet the smiles of her picture-perfect family are cracking and her sister could be dying. Now Tess has to fill a new role: the strong one. Because if she doesn’t hold it together, who will?

Giveway # 2

The second giveaway is for TWO books, I've decided. One is  MG by Eileen Cook.  The first in her  Fourth Grade Fairy series, FOURTH GRADE FAIRY. Delight-filled, funny and right on the mark for kids 8-12. Included in the pack is Eileen's latest YA, THE EDUCATION OF HAILEY KENDRICK. I interviewed Eileen here. And here is her website. Do check out her other books if you get a chance, she really is a wonderful author! PLUS---I have signed book plates for each of Eileen Books to add in. Thanks Eileen!

From Indie Bound

All Willow Doyle wants is to be normal, to fit in at her new school, and to have a best friend. But there’s no way Willow will ever be normal. There isn’t anything normal about her or the Doyle family.
Willow comes from a long line of fairy godmothers and she’s expected to be one too when the time comes. (At the moment she’s merely sprite status.) Maybe that would be cool if it were like the old days when the humans -- known as humdrums -- knew fairy godmothers existed and the fairies didn’t have to keep their fairy status secret. Now they’re stuck helping humans who don’t even believe in them. Rather than help normals, Willow would rather be human. She’s sick of being weird.
When she's given the chance to attend a humdrum elementary school for two weeks, this is Willow's chance to finally experience a normal life -- but will she be able to fit in? And can she find her best friend there, even if her parents discourage making friends with humans.

Hailey Kendrick always does exactly what's expected of her. She has the right friends, dates the perfect boy, gets good grades, and follows all the rules. But one night, Hailey risks everything by breaking a very big rule in a very public way...and with a very unexpected partner in crime. Hailey gets caught, but her accomplice does not, and Hailey takes the fall for both of them.

Suddenly, Hailey's perfect life--and her reputation--are blowing up in her face. Her friends are all avoiding her. Her teachers don't trust her. Her boyfriend won't even speak to her for long enough to tell her that she's been dumped.
They say honesty is the best policy--but some secrets are worth keeping, no matter the cost. Or are they?



That is all from me, all you need to do is comment on this post with a way for me to contact you by email. If you wouldn't mind leaving me a favourite latest read (MG, YA, ADULT, NON-FICTION...) I would love to hear them!

Open internationally until this Sunday night, midnight MST. Now...everyone...let's continue enjoying the awesome that is ARMCHAIR BEA. Looking forward to meeting those of us planning on heading there in 2012!
