To celebrate my fifty followers mark and push for another 50 I’m hosting a bit of an unusual giveaway this month. I was going to do a theme, but as the days have been flying by and I’ve been reading anything and everything with regard to genre’s I though hm.. I’ll do something a bit different.
So here’s the deal. To thank you all for following me I’m hosting a giveaway this month that benefits you! You will receive extra entries for being a “seasoned” follower of mine. The prize? I am prepared to purchase your #1 wishlist book for you from Amazon. There are some rules to this though!
- You must have a current, up-to-date wishlist on Amazon and be willing to provide me with the link should you win
- There is a price limit of $20 for this prize. Don’t go picking out some rare novel that I only wish I could buy!
- You must leave a comment answering my question (which will be posed in a moment) and your email address. If you do not do this then your reply will be invalid.
The question you need to answer is this: What is the No.1 book on your wishlist, and why is it there?
Now.. bonus entries! In the same comment please leave the following information and points added for it.
- +1 bonus entry for tweeting this contest (link in comment).
- +3 bonus entries for being a “seasoned” follower. That means you are now one of my current 53 followers as of 3/10/2010
- +1 bonus entry for being a “new” follower
- +3 bonus entries for writing an actual blog post. The blog post must contain your answer (no.1 wish list book and why) and information regarding this contest (Link in comment)
- +1 bonus entries for posting this on your sidebar (link in comment)
If I reach 100 followers by the end of March I will throw in a second bonus drawing of the same item.
This contest will end March 31, 2010. Open Internationally.
You already have 53 followers, reaching a 100 will be no problem
Oh yeah, I posted your giveaway here: http://www.bookworminginthe21stcentury.com/2010/03/link-contest-thursday_11.html
It’s number 36, hopefully this will get more people to enter!
Thanks, Kirthi! Where’s your entry!?
thanks so much for hosting this giveaway! =)
top on wishlist:
Mistborn Trilogy Box Set ($17) because I really love the premise of this series: the heroes fail to save the world, the protags are thieves, kickass female character, etc.
BUT, if I’m not allowed to have the box set (it IS technically 3 books, sorry), another top item on my wishlist is:
The Crown Conspiracy by Michael J. Sullivan, because it’s got teamwork, siblings, and political intrigue; I’m really looking forward to character dynamics here =)

The #1 book on my wishlist is Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins because I absolutely LOVE the other two books! It’s like, one of the best books ever, and I must get my hands on the (delicious) final ending!
Oh yeah, I don’t shop on Amazon, is it okay if I don’t have a wishlist on there?
Thanks for the awesome giveaway, happy reading!

I have so many books on my amazon.com wishlist but my top one has to be “Beauty: A Retelling of the Story of Beauty and the Beast by Robin Mckinley” because Beauty and the Beast has always been my favorite childhood book and I want to experience it all over again. Also, I can’t find it anywhere besides amazon.com. Thank you so much for this wonderful contest.
+1 for being a new follower (I just found you on the blog hop and I’m very happy to be your new follower!)
Hi, visiting and following from Follow Me Friday.
Please come by and follow me back when you get a chance. Have a wonderful weekend!
This is such a great idea and you are motivating me to put a wish list on Amazon again. I used to have one…..
I am stopping by this morning with Coffee Cup in hand to tell you that you won a set of the Swan Thieves audios at my place…
This info is coming up on this mornings meanderings which is not quite ready for post yet but will be up within the next 15 – 20 minutes
Congrats!
Hi. I’m not entering to win BUT I just wanted to let you know I’m now a follower!
Welcome to all you new folks!
Hi Lydia, the book on my wish list that I really am anxious to get is Jodi Piccoult’s new one, House Rules. I really appreciate Piccoult’s writing style and have not read anything new from her in a while.
I am a seasoned follower
What a cool contest. I do have a wishlist on Amazon … but since I’m on a book buying ban for 2010, I don’t have many books on it. I do have an extensive Paperback Swap wishlist though (I don’t count that as buying a book … it is my loophole). The #1 book on my wishlist though would be Christopher Moore’s new book “Bite Me.” : )
The number one book on my Amazon wishlist is:
Simple Compassion: Devotions to Make a Difference in Your Neighborhood and Your World by Keri Wyatt Kent
If I win (and I am sure it will never happen as I never win!), I would be happy to register this book at BookCrossing and pass it on to anyone else who would like to read it in a bookray.
+1 I am a new follower! Hope you will come and check me out as I am also trying to make it to 100!
+1 Tweet (fingers crossed that I can figure this out!)
My number 1 book on the booklist is Mockingjay! Cannot wait for the Hunger Games series
