If you had a chance to read my review of Kristin Cashore's latest book, BITTERBLUE, then you know how much I loved loved loved this book.
And if you had a chance to read Donna's recap of the Kristin Cashore signing we went to, you know how fangirly we got and totally squeed over the chance to finally meet one of our favorite authors.
And now, you have a chance to get in on a piece of the action!
While I was at the signing, I picked up an extra copy of the oh-so-lovely BITTERBLUE and had it signed for one of you lucky folks! And now I'm giving it away!
TO ENTER:
Leave a comment on this post and let us know what you'd want your Grace to be, if you were a Graceling. (If you haven't read Graceling yet--you're missing out!--a Graceling is a person born with two different color eyes that is gifted with being extremely good at one thing, like baking or healing or walking backwards.)
Personally, I would like the Grace of speed reading, because I can't keep up with all the awesome books coming out!
CONTEST RULES:
--Extra entries will be awarded if you help us spread the word about this awesome book through Facebook, Twitter, Goodreads, Blog Posts/Sidebars, etc.--just leave us links in the comments so we know.
--Open to US residents, only. (Sorry! I'm about to have a baby. I need to buy diapers.)
--No anonymous commenting, please. (I need to be able to respond to your comment by email if you win.)
--Contest is open until Tuesday, 5/15.
Good luck!

I'm always looking for new books to read. I would love to have the grace of being very good at sewing clothing. I'm very hard to fit and I would love to be able to do it myself!

I would like the grace of remembering what I read.
ReplyDeleteBecause then I could do anything.
Tweeting this as well.
I'd love to win. I'd love to have a Graceling power of getting everything done but reading and writing with a point of a finger so I had more time for the things I love.

I would want to have the ability to run extremely quickly. So quickly in fact, that I can run back and forth between continents in seconds. Like the Flash, really haha :) I hope I win! I love Cashore's writing, stories, and characters. My father does too so if I won this I know he'd get as excited as I.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity!

I think it would be cool to have a grace that allowed me to kick anything exactly where I want it to go. Pow! Milk carton right in the kisser!
ReplyDeleteI would like to fly. So if that would be possible as a Grace, I would want that :D I loved loved loved Graceling and Fire and Bitterblue. <3 Would LOVE to have a signed copy of Bitterblue :D Thank you so much for this giveaway. <3 I live in Norway, BUT, I would pay shipping price if I do win; if I can do that :) Thank you. <3 :)
ReplyDeleteLove, Carina
I'm so excited to read this book! I just finished Fire, so I'm all ready to jump back into this world. :) If I had a Grace, I'd like I don't know, a photographic memory or something OR maybe an athletic Grace because I'm not very coordinated and I'd like to be. Haha.

I have no idea - but I love the sound of speed-reading. I just can't keep up with my TBR pile!!
ReplyDeleteThanks!

What fun.... I'd love to be a mind-reader. That would be my grace.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read this series! I kind of want to steal your super power but right now I would just like to be able to do 50 things at once - read, blog, change diapers, and play with my 3 yr old all at the same time!

My Grace? Hmmmmmmmm the ability to know what is keeping a student from learning and how to help them! :) Cheesy I know!
ReplyDeleteI like Death's Grace as well! :D Man, so many to choose from.... I would probably go with Hava's Grace of disguise. I mean, I could walk around with comfy clothes and make people think I'm wearing the most extravagant thing! Yay :D
ReplyDeletegolfgirl96@gmail.com
I'd choose the grace of healing, wouldn't that be awesome?!
ReplyDeleteI would love, love, love a signed copy so thanks so much for the chance=)

I would want the grace of speaking in many different languages fluently. That would be so cool. And very useful!
ReplyDeleteAh! Sophia beat me! I too would want the grace of speaking in many languages fluently... or I know, I'd want the grace of having all the linguistic knowledge needed to be able to speak languages fluently. ;)

Thank you to everyone who entered! I'll be emailing the winner shortly.
ReplyDeleteOh darn! I'm sad I'm too late, I would have loved a copy!
ReplyDeleteI loved Graceling! I just read it in May. I would want my Grace to be the ability to communicate with others mentally. That would be soo cool.
