Christmas Contest


CONTEST CLOSED, WINNER CHOSEN!


It's December! And you know what that means...time for a holiday contest. :) What could be a better prize than a SIGNED copy of the YA book "Let It Snow" written by three amazing authors: John Green, Maureen Johnson, and Lauren Myracle! Just in time for the Christmas season.

[Book Description]:

Sparkling white snowdrifts, beautiful presents wrapped in ribbons, and multicolored lights glittering in the night through the falling snow. A Christmas Eve snowstorm transforms one small town into a romantic haven, the kind you see only in movies. Well, kinda. After all, a cold and wet hike from a stranded train through the middle of nowhere would not normally end with a delicious kiss from a charming stranger. And no one would think that a trip to the Waffle House through four feet of snow would lead to love with an old friend. Or that the way back to true love begins with a painfully early morning shift at Starbucks. Thanks to three of today's bestselling teen authors John Green, Maureen Johnson, and Lauren Myracle the magic of the holidays shines on these hilarious and charming interconnected tales of love, romance, and breathtaking kisses. (Grade 9 and up.)

Contest Rules:
-Open to USA only.
-I'll use Random.org to pick the lucky winner.

Ends on December 17 at midnight. The winner will be chosen and posted/emailed the following day. Good luck! :)

    My favorite part of the holiday is exchanging gifts. I love giving gifts just as much as receiving them and I love seeing peoples faces when they open their gifts!

  6. Oh, that's easy, my favorite part about the holidays is the togetherness I feel with my family. We're a very small family and we are really close, but pretty much from Halloween on, I can feel us bonding more.

  25. Yay, fun holiday themed book! Count me in.
    One thing I love about Christmas is picking out a tree. We just lately have started getting a real tree. My family waits until the very last minute (because that's when you get the best deal). Sometimes we will be there Christmas Eve, standing out in the cold, haggling with disgruntled employees who have to work on Christmas Eve. Ha, call me odd, but it makes for some of the best memories.
