{Birthday Blogaversary Bash} It's My Birthday and I'll Give Away Books if I Want To...

Hey guys! Welcome to the start of my Birthday Blogaversary Bash! I'm actually really excited about today (okay, I'm really excited about all the days) because I think this is going to be really fun. So...would YOU go on a blind date with a book?

Here's the rundown: There are going to be three books that you can enter to win. I will give you some words or phrases that describe the book or what I thought of the book. Then, it's up to you to decide if you're going to risk entering the giveaway for it!

Each book will have it's own giveaway, so that you can enter only the books you want to win, although you're welcome to enter all three! (All the entries are the same, so you're really not doing any extra.) Also, you can tweet only once that day, and use the same link in all three widgets (I'm not going to make you tweet the same thing three times).

Every 50 entries that a book gets, I will give you another clue for that book! You're free to guess in the comments, discuss with each other, etc., I just won't tell you if you're right or wrong :) All three books are hardcover, and the first two have been reviewed on this blog (if that helps narrow it down).

This giveaway is US only (sorry!), and runs until the 15th. Rules can be found on the Terms and Conditions at the bottom of the Rafflecopters. After the winners have received their books, I will come back to this post and reveal what they were, for those of you who are dying to know.

Fun Facts:

  • 54% guessed Book 1 correctly
  • Exactly half guessed Book 2 correctly
  • Only 5 people guessed Book 3 correctly (well, 4 1/2 because someone gave two guesses)
  • All three winners guessed the book they won correctly (only one got all three, but they all got the one they won)
  • Only TWO people guessed all three correctly (congrats Katherine and Robin!)

Book 1:

YA fantasy. Mythical fairytale retelling. Gorgeous cover.
Clue #1: Not Cinder (or any in that series) :)
Clue #2: Beauty and the Beast

And the book is...



Book 2:

YA contemporary. Best friend romance. Absolutely adorable.
Clue #1: Just released in February :)
Clue #2: Wisconsin Badgers

And the book is...



Book 3:

YA Dystopian. Epidemic. Swoon-worthy romance.
Clue #1: Not Delirium (or any in that series) :)
Clue #2: Yellow

And the book is...


So, did you guess the books correctly?

    1. Good guesses... I haven't read These Broken Stars, so that one is definitely not correct :)

    1. Hmm...good guesses. All I will say is, definitely not The Darkest Minds because I haven't read it yet :)

  4. This is such an amazing idea! I don't have much of a clue of what any of them are but they all sound like the exact types of book I would love! Hopefully they're not ones I've already read!
