SUMMER GIVEAWAY HOP 2013




Can you believe it's August already?! Summer is on the other side of halfway over now. Have you read a bunch of good books, perhaps by the beach or poolside? No beach trips for my family this year, but we have spent a lot of time at the community pool.

Summer always makes me think of water - either the ocean or the pool or a sprinkler in the backyard. So, for the Summer Giveaway Hop 2013, hosted by I Am A Reader and BookHounds, I'm going to give away any book that features WATER on the cover in some way. Here are a few examples:




So, knock yourself out! If the book you choose (remember - WATER on the cover) hasn't been released yet, I'll pre-order it for you. I'll place my order through The Book Depository, so make sure they ship to you. Fill out the Rafflecopter below, then hop to the next blog. Good luck!

The beach :D

I don't which I prefer I like both the pool and the beach equally I think. I hate the sand that comes everywhere when swimming on the beach, but I also hate the artificial smell of pool water. And actually I have to admit I don't go often to either one. I hate busy places and prefer to go swim somewhere with some shade in the form of trees nearby. I do like swimming, but I actually don't go swim that often. Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

Thanks for sharing the hop and your giveaway. I prefer the pool, no sand, and since I seriously dislike the sun, I go swimming at night, don't think that would be wise at the beach, unless there was a seriously hot merman there. evamillien at gmail dot com
