Thank You for the Fun Time at GOT BOOKS?

I forgot to say a          

to all those who entered the GOT BOOKS? EVENT giveaway and the many who left such nice comments. If you are new to my blog - Welcome!  You will learn that I LOVE to sponsor giveaways! Mostly books but I try to throw in some extra items every month or so just for fun, plus some giveaways to thank my Followers.

I have to get the summer giveaway posted soon.  It looks like the giveaway list has outgrown the top of the blog spot so I will be moving it to the sidebar later this week.


BTW- a couple people asked about the metal hook bookmarks. My friend, Jensmere, is one of the September Blogmania sponsors at eTreasures Publishing so there will be more bookmarks available there with many other great prizes. That Giveaway event will have an international package too. Please check out  the eight sponsor posts at eTreasures blog (and follow early to save time during the event).  There are some more sponsor and gift posts coming up soon.

Jensmere also makes some lovely jewelry which I will be offering, with more bookmarks, in future giveaways here at my blog. As another blogger says - it's fun to have Bling with books!

Winners of GOT BOOKS? Event!

CONGRATULATIONS 

TO WINNERS OF THE GOT BOOKS? EVENT!!

First Place: (#159)

and

Second Place (#12)

Amy J is from USA and Ilona is from Australia.
Amy has confirmed that she would like to receive the VAMPIRE ACADEMY TRILOGY. (I may have to get another one as I thought I might want to read those myself.)

I have emailed Ilona to determine her selection and then will update to announce that.

UPDATE:  Ilona chose the alternate two book package plus bookmark and sway.  She picked A Black Tie Affair and The 8th Confession as her two books.

[Note: this means the Sookie collection, the Christine Feehan trilogy, the Amish trilogy and those other loose books will be back up for future giveaways!]



It was fun to see the choices - the top three items were:
Sookie Stackhouse Collection - 113
Vampire Academy - 60
Not Yet Decided - 30

I had entrants from 38 states in the US, several from Canada and 23 international countries! It was very interesting to see where entrants were from. :0)

THERE WILL BE A FIRST PLACE WINNER and a SECOND PLACE WINNER for MBS (Martha's Bookshelf). I decided to keep this open WORLDWIDE.
This post started out nicely with all the books showing but then the links went haywire so I came back to add book names. That's why it's late posting. :(

 Contest Ends midnight eastern July 24, 2010! Winners will be announced July 25, 2010.
In my Got Books? announcement I said that I had a prize of a series that I really loved! Here you go:

The Sookie Stackhouse series books 1-7 Collection! If you haven't read these - they are fun and, IMHO, SOOOOO much better than the True Blood TV series.

Now - if the winner has read the Sookie books and doesn't need or want that prize the winner could pick ONE of these three sets instead:

1. The Amish Trilogy by Beverly Lewis 

OR

2. Three Christine Feehan books
Dark Celebration: A Carpathian Reunion (The Carpathians (Dark) Series, Book 14)
Dark Curse (The Carpathians (Dark) Series, Book 16) and
Dark Possession (The Carpathians (Dark) Series, Book 15)

OR 3. The Vampire Academy Trilogy

by Richelle Mead

OR if the winner is not happy with any of the above three sets,
here is an alternate package that includes A, B and C.


A. Pick ANY two books from these twelve: (some of the image links kept disappearing so I have added the titles just in case)
A Black Tie Affair and  Iron Man 2


,

To Surrender To A Rogue (Circle of Sin Trilogy)
and
Desire Me (The Legend Hunters)

The 8th Confession (Women's Murder Club)
and Alex Cross's TRIAL

Barely a Lady and Ravished by a Highlander

Risk No Secrets and Still the One

These two are ARCs (advanced Reader Copies)
Soul Catcher
and The Wild Irish Sea

B. And with the two books the winner will get a book mark:

These Hook bookmarks were made by a friend from church who has also made some jewelry for me to use for future giveaways.

C. And also swag - book marks and a few pens, notepads, buttons, etc.

SECOND PLACE WINNER GETS TO PICK after the First Place Winner picks and Second Place winner can choose from the sets 1 or 2 or 3 OR the alternate package.
