Giveaway of The Little Giant of Aberdeen County by Tiffany Baker

by

Courtesy of Miriam at Hachette I have 3 copies of The Little Giant of Aberdeen County by Tiffany Baker for a giveaway. I’m really excited about this one because this is one of my favorite books of the year and I got to read it with one of my best friends Toni, from A Circle of Books. You can read my review of it here. It’s a great debut novel by this author and well worth reading. It’s being released January 8, 2009.

For the rules:

  • For one entry just leave me a comment here. Remember to leave me your email address if you do not have a blog.

  • For two entries-and this is completely off topic but Christmasy-have you started decorating yet.

  • For three entries, blog about this giveaway and spread the word.

I will draw for a winner on December 8, 2008 and Hachette will send you your book. This giveaway is open to US and Canadian residents only, no PO boxes please.

When you’re done here, make sure to head over to Toni’s, A Circle of Books because she too is giving away three copies of this fabulous book! Thanks again for a great chat Toni and I hope we do another soon! Good luck to all!

  1. If it’s a favorite book of the year, then I can’t pass it up. Please enter my name! I will post this on my sidebar and yes, I have put up decorations outside. Inside – the tree is up, but not accessorized yet. 🙂

  2. You and Toni both gave such good reviews of this book that I would love a chance to win it! I have totally NOT started decorating yet…yikes…oh well.
    I also noted your contest on my sidebar.

  4. Hey Dar…thank you too! I had a blast! Ending with a big giveaway is fun fun!

    Decorating..uh.. no … I don’t do it until the 10th… Just because I don’t like to get sick of it too soon.. makes me sound like an old scrooge eh? ha ha..

  5. Please enter me.

    And yes I have started decorating. The tree is up (its little but its up) and the Merry Christmas sign is hung on the window.

  6. I’d love to be entered for this one! And I haven’t started decorating yet – we are planning on doing it this weekend!

  7. I would love a chance to win this.

    My decorations have been up for awhile now. I sensed that the weeks would fly quickly so I got them up early so I could at least enjoy them for a bit. My neighborhood is slow to catch on though.

  8. I would LOVE to read this. You and Toni have me very interested in this book. My decorations have been up for a little over a week now. This is the earliest I’ve ever put up my tree, etc. I knew once I went back to school I wouldn’t feel like doing it.

  10. Oh, please enter my name for this one (twice!). We haven’t started decorating, but plan to get the tree and spend the entire day on Saturday. Well, until one of the kids starts crying over something silly, anyway!

  12. Oh, this sounds really great. I NEED this book!

    For entry number two I will tell you that, no, I haven’t decorated because I am Jewish 🙂

  13. I’d love to be entered this sounds like an interesting book based on reviews.

    And no I haven’t started decorating since I don’t decorate I dont celebrate christmas due to religion. Although I do think christmas decorations are really pretty! I love christmas lights!
    Thanks for entering me.

  14. This sounds good. I would love to read it.
    I don’t decorate anymore. My children are married now with their own families. We usually get together at their homes because they have more room. I also have two cats that would destroy any decorations I put up! lol

  15. OMG, I want this book so bad! I tried to get an advance copy through Shelf Awarness, but without success.

    I’m not doing any X-mas decorations up because I don’t really celebrate Christmas. We excange gifts through the mail with my husbands family. They all live very far away. We also go to my brothers on Christmas Day and have the big dinner but don’t exchange gifts. My brother and i were both raised Jewish, but neither of us practice that or any other faith. We do believe in being good people though!

    I blogged about your wonderful giveaway here:

  16. Hi Dar,
    Yes I’d like to receive a copy of this book…your review is wonderful!
    Thanks

  17. Dar,
    Regarding Christmas decorating…..NO, not yet…ugh!
    I have purchased several gifts and still need to get my secret santa gifts into the mail…I have this terrible feeling that I am running behind schedule!

  18. EVERYONE has been talking about this book! And can I say – I just love the cover! Oh, and yes, we’ve been decorating. The lights are up outside, all the nativity scenes are safely out of the toddler’s reach, and we’ll probably be getting our tree next weekend. 🙂 THANKS!

  19. I wish I had my decorations up, especially outdoors. A few weeks ago we had a beautiful week with warm temps and I knew I should have done it then. 🙁 Now we have cold and snow but everyone else has pretty lights up already. At least I get to look at theirs until I get motivated enough to do mine. I always seem to do that chore by myself.

    I’ve been wanting to read this book! Please include me and I’ve added it to my blog. Thanks for another great contest!

  21. Dar: You know I want to enter this contest for this book, and I will put it in my sidebar!

    O as for decorations…we actually have the lights up on the apartment porch, the breakfast nook, and the tree is up with the stockings…We just have to put ornaments on the tree. LOL We’re ahead of ourselves for once.

  23. This book sounds so good — thanks for the chance to win a copy.
    We have put up a couple of decorations around our entryway, but not much yet. We always do a little at a time over a few weeks.

  24. Your review was great, I would love to be entered.
    As far as decorating for Christmas, I finally bought a little table top tree and I will put up window lights and a door wreath. That’s about it. (it’s just me now so I can get away with being lazy 😀 )

  25. Since you enjoyed this so much, I think I would like to read it as well! Please enter me in your giveaway.

    As to your question about decorating–my husband and I spent the Saturday after Thanksgiving decorating for Christmas. We don’t have tons of decorations, but it was fun to decorate the tree. Hubby was in charge of the outside lights, and I took care of the tree!

  26. Another great giveaway! Yes, please enter my name, it does sound like a book I’d enjoy. I’ll add this to my book giveaway post.

    The lights are up outside and I bought a new white Christmas cactus, does that count? 😉

    We plan to get our tree this weekend so my home should start looking very festive soon…

  29. I read the review, I’d love to win and no I have not started decorating, buying presents or anything yet.

  30. I am aching to read this! I’ve read so many amazing reviews of it.

    I’ve hung 3 wreaths, but that’s it so far! I want to go get roping this weekend though.

    Thanks for the chance to win this!

  32. Your review has convinced me this is a must-read, please enter me.

    As for my Christmas decorating, I have a beautiful wreath on the front door, but I usually wait until the week before Christmas (when the kids are on school break) to do the tree and hearth.

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  39. I’m so glad that I discovered book reveiw blogs. I’ve learned about so many books by authors that I might never have known about otherwise. Practically everyday I read about a new book or author to put on my must read list.
    Enter me,please. This sounds like my kind of story.

  43. I don’t know if it’s too late, but I would love to win this book! Thanks for the opportunity.
    I did all of my decorating the day after Thanksgiving. I don’t have too much stuff, and I can’t relax until it’s done!
