May “Giftaway”!

by Belle on May 1, 2009

This is the first month of what I hope will be a regular event here at MsBookish.com – the monthly “Giftaway”!

What is a Giftaway? It’s my version of a book giveaway, a celebration of all the wonderful readers who make comments here at Ms. Bookish. I enjoy each and every one of your comments, and the purpose of this Giftaway is to show my appreciation for all you.

How does it work? To be entered into this month’s Giftaway, simply make a comment on any post here at MsBookish.com during the month of May. I will be putting the names of all my commenters (or is that commentators?) for the month into a hat (actually, a spreadsheet) and on June 1, I will pull one name out of the hat (actually, Random.org).

What’s the gift? The winner will get his or her choice of books from my Giftaway Book Shelf. Winners get to choose FIVE books from the Giftaway Shelf if their mailing address is in the U.S. or Canada, and TWO books if their mailing address is outside of the U.S. or Canada. Shipping to the U.S. and Canada will be via UPS Standard. Shipping outside of the U.S. or Canada will be via surface or ground mail (sorry about that, but it was the only cost-effective way I could find in order to include international readers).

Some restrictions: In order to win, you must be 18 years of age or older. Void in Quebec and any other locations where such events are prohibited by law. Only approved comments are valid (this just means spam comments are not included). One entry per person.

What a neat idea! I love it! I wonder if you would mind if I borrowed your idea and offered something similar to my readers too? Please let me know! I would not be offended if you said “no please don’t borrow my idea!”

Thanks, Kathy! And Terra, of course I don’t mind! The best thing about this is that it’s so easy to give up books when I know they’re going to a book lover.
