Blogiversary Giveaway #17: Twilight

Before Breaking Dawn comes out in theaters this fall read the book that started it all!

Enter to win a copy of Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

Synopsis (via Goodreads):

"Isabella Swan's move to Forks, a small, perpetually rainy town in Washington, could have been the most boring move she ever made. But once she meets the mysterious and alluring Edward Cullen, Bella's life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. Up until now, Edward has managed to keep his vampire identity a secret in the small community he lives in, but now nobody is safe, especially Bella, the person Edward holds most dear. The lovers find themselves balanced precariously on the point of a knife—between desire and danger. Deeply romantic and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight captures the struggle between defying our instincts and satisfying our desires. This is a love story with bite."

Enter to win a copy of Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella

 

Synopsis (via Goodreads):

"British debut author Sophie Kinsella's irresistible department store farce, Confessions of a Shopaholic, is a delightful meditation, in the tradition of Bridget Jones's Diary, on consumer culture and our compulsion to shop -- at home, online, in stores, you name it -- at the dawn of the 21st century. Are your credit card bills growing? Are you running out of excuses for late payments? Do you continue to shop with money you don't actually have? Well, don't panic. Just open your wallet, remove your credit card, cut it in half, lock your door, get comfortable, and read Confessions of a Shopaholic. This delightful novel may not cure you of consumer sickness, but it is certain to keep you out of the stores for a few hours. Once you finish the book, you're on your own."

Waiting on Wednesday spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating!

This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:

 

 Torrent (River of Time #3) by Lisa Tawn Bergren

To be Published: September 1st 2011 by David C. Cook

When Gabi and Lia finally learn to surf the river of time, they realize they must make hard choices about life and love in the third and final book in the River of Time series.   Gabi and Lia Betarrini have learned to control their time travel, and they return from medieval Italy to save their father from his tragic death in modern times.   But love calls across the centuries, and the girls are determined to return forever—even though they know the Black Plague is advancing across Europe, claiming the lives of one-third of the population. In the suspenseful conclusion of the River of Time series, every decision is about life … and death.  

______________

 I read Waterfall and Cascade last week and loved them! Now I am anxiously waiting for this conclusion to the series. If you haven't read the previous books yet, go do it! They are a great blend of romance, historical fiction and time travel. Love!

What book are YOU waiting on?

 

Blogiversary Giveaway #15: Catching Fire

  If you haven't heard of - or read - this yet, what rock have you been hiding under?!

Enter to win a copy of Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins!

 

Synopsis (via Goodreads):

"Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark won the annual competition described in Hunger Games, but the aftermath leaves these victors with no sense of triumph. Instead, they have become the poster boys for a rebellion that they never planned to lead. That new, unwanted status puts them in the bull's-eye for merciless revenge by The Capitol. Catching Fire maintains the adrenaline rush of Suzanne Collins's series launch."
