Just Another Book Addict

If you have read my bio or About Me page, you may know that I work as a nanny for three children. One of them is an 8-year-old autistic boy, so I felt it was very important for me to participate in this hop.  In anticipation, I sat down with him, and we talked about some of his favorite things: dinosaurs, zombies, foxes, robots, chasing his sisters.  You know, normal eight-year-old interests.  But his favorite, FAVORITE thing right now?  Dragons.  So in honor of him, I will be giving away the first two books in the Firelight series by Sophie Jordan to one winner!

Firelight by Sophie Jordan

Vanish by Sophie Jordan

The third book in the series, Hidden, comes out this September, so this is a great opportunity to get ready for its release!

Good Choice Reading

I Am A Reader, Not A Writer

Recently, my local indie children's bookstore, Hicklebee's, hosted a signing with Ally Carter, author of the Gallagher Girls and Heist Society serieses...no, just series.  I, of course, was unable to attend because it was in the middle of the afternoon and I was at work (Thanks Hicklebee's! Just kidding), but I did get in touch with them and ask if they could maybe have Ally sign a copy of the new GG book, Out of Sight, Out of Time for me.  And they were all, "OF COURSE!"  And so I was like, "Can you have TWO copies signed for me?"  And of course they said, "OF COURSE!"  So now there are two signed copies waiting for me to pick them up this weekend, and guess what?  One of them can be yours!

I love the Gallagher Girls series, and I think those girls are pretty kick-butt, so I think this hop is the perfect fit for this giveaway.  Click on "Read More" to check out the rules and enter using the Rafflecopter!
