You KNOW I love a good reading party!! Yesterday, when I was popular, I was introduced to several blogs that I was unfamiliar with (love!) and a few of them were participating in Chronicle Books' Happy Haul-iday wishlist giveaway. Books? For free? I'm sorry, friends, but I could not resist! Here's how it goes down:
If you're a blogger: Head over to Chronicle's website and make a list of books (up to $500!) that you want. Post your book list to your blog and enter the contest by linking up at Chronicle. THAT'S IT. The last day to submit posts is December 10th and the winner will be announced on December 13th.
If you're NOT a blogger: Check out the list of blogs participating in the giveaway and comment your little heart out! One blogger and one commenter on the winning post will win the $500 wishlist! (Here's some boring official stuff that's probably important.)

ahhh I hope you win! I have Olive the Other Reindeer (I collect unique children's books) and This Is For You (on clearance at Anthro!).
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of This Is For You until today but it sounds AMAZING!! Please confirm/deny.
ReplyDeleteAmazingness confirmed. It's a terrible adorable little book! Do you have an Anthro near you? My Anthro doesn't ever have any but the MI one and a few others I've seen almost always have a few books on clearance!
ReplyDeleteGreat list! Good Luck!

Love you list. Good luck to us both!

Great list! I'd have added most of these to my list if I'd had room for more adult books.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great list of books!
ReplyDeletejowanjowan73(at)yahoo(dot)com
Ahhh, me too! :mrgreen: Here's hoping..
ReplyDeleteTwo of these books (The Space Between Trees and The Ramayana) have such gorgeous cover designs that I feel like the book inside has to be something amazing. Which is interesting, because the two designs themselves have little in common! Good luck with the contest!
ReplyDeleteAwesome list! I love seeing what everyone else would pick! So fun!
ReplyDeleteahhh i love those books. Best of luck. if you get a chance and want to leave a comment on my happy haul-idays list, that would be great!
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I have a couple of the ones up top.
ReplyDeleteAgreed! I'm tempted to start buying some of the books with the expectation that I WON'T win, but that'd be like jinxing myself.. ;)
ReplyDeleteWow, you have the best list I've seen so far....or at least what would be the closest to my list. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! Count me in!
