And The Winner Is...

Thanks to all who participated in the Book Extravaganza giveaway! I loved reading about all of your favorite poems and poets. Definitely, the top poets were: Poe, Frost, Silverstein, e. e. cummings and Emily Dickinson.

The winner is: Icedream of the Reading in Appalachia blog!

I will mail your copy of  The Sky is Everywhere this week!

If you did not win, don't despair. There is still time to enter my giveaway of Linger (I already have my giveaway copy waiting to be sent out!) which ends on July 20th and I will announce another giveaway on that day as well.

Thanks to Kate of The Neverending Shelf and Kristen of Bookworming in the 21st Century for hosting this awesome Book Extravaganza!

Book Extravaganza: Giveaway Time!

As part of the Book Extravaganza, which is being hosted by Kate of The Neverending Shelf and Kristen of Bookworming in the 21st Century, I am offering a little giveaway. I absolutely love these two blogs and admire all of their hard work and effort in providing fun and entertaining book-blog information and activities.

So, I am giving away one copy of Jandy Nelson's The Sky is Everywhere. I chose this book for its unique structure and the way that poetry was woven throughout the text. For this giveaway, you need to share the name of a favorite poet in the comments section of this post.

Because I loved this book so well, I'd like to offer every one of you a copy. Of course, my bank account will not allow for such extravagant antics. I can offer up one copy of this book to one lucky, randomly selected winner from the US. (Sorry International folks; check out my giveaway for Linger and enter if you haven't already!)

To enter, simply fill out this form and leave your answer to the poetry question in the comments section of this post.

This giveaway will only be open for the weekend, so please enter before midnight (EST) on July 18th.

Book Extravaganza: Giveaway Coming Soon!

The wonderful ladies of Bookworming in the 21st Century and The Neverending Shelf are teaming up to host an awesome Book Extravaganza! I am not sure about all of the excitement and fun that Kristen and Kate have planned for us, but I do know that there are going to be quite a few contests and giveaways held on a variety of book blogs during these three days (July 16-18).

In fact, I am going to host a little book giveaway starting this Friday! You'll only have one day to enter, so mark your calendars, check out some cool blogs, and participate in the fun!
