Boring Giveaway
The universe must love me, because it recently gave me free books. A clerical error resulted in my receiving a box of books from Featherproof Books that I hadn’t ordered. The good-hearted, book-loving people at Featherproof then saw fit to let me keep the books. Why? Because they’re wonderful. Seriously. I already had a huge literary crush on this press before they told me to go ahead and keep the books. Now I think I might be in love. Go look at their list. Go on. Then come back, because I want to give you one of those books.
One of the books in that box is something I’d already bought from them: boring boring boring boring boring boring boring by Zach Plague. It’s waiting patiently on my to-be-read pile, and its time is coming soon. Which is to say that while I can’t yet give you a review of it, I can tell you I’m very much looking forward to reading it. I don’t need two copies, though. That would just be greedy, wouldn’t it?
Do you want it? Of course you do. Why wouldn’t you? Leave a comment (here. Not on Facebook or Twitter, so I can do the random number thing fairly), letting me know you want in on the drawing for the book. On Monday, March 15th (oooh…the Ides of March…) at 10a.m. PST (also known as post-preschool dropoff and mid-decaf Americano time) I’ll let the random number generator choose a winner.
I’ll enter!
Also, I’m glad you and the baby are fairing well.
Oooh, I’m in! I’d like to have that read.
I want it! I want it! (In fact, I’ll probably buy it post-March 15.)
Glad to hear on your previous post that all is well so far. Stay well, little one!
I’m throwing my hat in the mix! What a title!!
How can you resist a book with such a delicious title? (And of course it’s waiting patiently. What else has it got to do? Everything is so boring, boring, boring….) (grin) So, anyway, yes please. Enter me, too!
I want it, want it, want it, want it, want it, want it, want it.
And thanks!
I already have too many books to read, but I’m glad the universe loves you! 😀
I never turn down books.
That looks like a good read…I’ll enter! Thanks for the publisher link, too. More goodies to be read over there.
count me in!
Well, my dear, I don’t usually enter a lot of blog contests, but I bought Scorch Atlas on your recommendation and it stunned me. So I trust your literary judgment!
i’m in.
Yay! I’m in!
Yes please!
Books make me happy!
I would love to be in the drawing!
Oh, how books make me happy. I’d love to check this out!
Count me in! It looks interesting.
I’d love a boring book.
I’d love any ol’ book. And I’m really glad that you and the baby girl are good.
Hey there! I would love a new book to read. I’ve been sending good thoughts your way.
Books are one of my favourite things – next to family, friends and wool.
And I think this is a sign that all things are going well for you – can’t wait to meet that little girl you’re cooking.
Yes please, thank you and stay well
Yes, please enter me in your drawing! I really haven’t felt too much like knitting lately and curling up with a good book sounds wonderful.
Oh, yes please! I’m anticipating being laid off and having plenty of time for catching up on reading.
Oh yes! Count me in on the drawing. I love a new book!
I’d love to add it to my stack of yet-to-be-read.
woo woo! add me too!
Enter me for the book draw! I do like a good read.
Got nothin’ but time to read these days…count me in!
I’m in. It’s not like I don’t hear that a million times a week from my 12 year old.
Please enter me for the drawing. Thanks!
different Tanya, same request! would love the chance to win–as I perused the list (going directly when you so directed) it was the first one that grabbed me!
Thanks for sharing the wealth!
Pardon my exclamation point abuse! Apparently, I’m enthusiastic today!
Consider my hat tossed as well. How can you not LOVE their logo?
PS Hope you’re well.
Book Ho here!! My hat tossed into the ring with the others. Keep on updating – love hearing news of baby and her knits.
I’d love a good, boring book!
