500 Follower Giveaway

So I realized last night that I was getting pretty close to 500 followers (only 18 away when I started writing this post). So what better way than to celebrate than by doing a giveaway. Help me surpass my 500 follower goal!

One TWO lucky winners will win some random swag that I have around here (some signed and some not) AND the same lucky winners will also get to pick one book from the list below.


The books below are some of the books that are on my wishlist and I thought I'd let the winner pick from this list. 




To enter this giveaway - all you have to do is use the rafflecopter below. OPEN INTERNATIONALLY (wherever Book Depository will ship too). Ends March 10th at midnight EST.

EDIT: I'm adding a second winner if I can surpass the 500 followers mark by March 10th!

    Hey, snowflake! <3
    I'm looking forward to reading Vicious Deep by Zoraida Cordova (this chick is soooo awesome! I love her!!!), The Catastrophic History of You and Me by Jess Rothenberg (heard it's a sweet book!), The Fault in Our Stars by John Green (heard nothing but raves about this one), The Way We Fall by Megan Crewe (I went to the book launch a few weeks ago and Megan Crewe is such a lovely person!!!), and like a trillion other books.. I could go on, but you would probably curse me from spam-ing your post haha :D

    I recently read (and LOVED) This Is Not A Test - gosh, this was such a crazy emotional thrill ride. My heard was pounding all the way through. BRILLIANT book! If you haven't read it yet - get on it! Needless to say, I would DIE to get my hands on a finished copy :D Thank you for including this title in the giveaway!

      I love the covers for these books, but I still need to read them too. :)
