Me, saying hello, folks. Oh, and a GIVEAWAY. There's that too.

Hello there, folks. I hope the fact that I'm breaking my radio silence and actually writing a post doesn't give you all a heart attack. That would be very unfortunate, and I don't have a defibrillator on hand. So hang in there.

I have a stack of YA books that don't fit on my shelf, and they're just screaming "Give us away!"

So . . . How about a contest?**

This is how we'll do this. I'll give you some clues, and the first person to e-mail me with the correct answer will win their choice of one of the following books:

 

 

Starters by Lisa Price

 

 



Untraceable by S.R. Johannes

 

The Clues:

 

1. I have a basil plant. His name is Dorian.

 

2. I am an English major, and literary references make me happy.

 

3. Dorian is just wild for the classics.

 

 

The Question: 

 

The first person to e-mail me (teddycavygal at yahoo dot com) and tell me why I named my basil plant Dorian will win one of the above books!

 

If no one comes up with the right answer by Wednesday, the 14th, I'll give you more clues.

 The clues have been solved. Comments giveaway is still open. - comment to win Starters or Untraceable. :]

 

 But wait, there's more!

 

After the winner chooses their book, I'll still have two left. I'll pick two winners from the comments for each of the remaining books.

 

So, there are two ways to win here. E-mail me with your answer and/or comment on this post, telling me what your favorite read of the year (so far) is.

 

As soon as someone guesses correctly, I'll update letting you know which book they chose. The comments giveaway of the other two books will stay open until Wednesday, the 21st.

 

 

 

 I hope this all makes sense. Feel free to e-mail or leave a comment with any questions.

 

Good luck! :]

**UPDATE: My clues have been solved. :] Our winner chose The Forsaken, but Starters and Untraceable are still up for grabs, so comment away.**
