A GOLDEN Giveaway!

Happy Holidays!
 
Christmas is near, and we all know that one of the greatest pleasures of the season is to give.  It's been quite a while since I've given anything away here on ye old blog, and I just so happen to have one of these hanging around.  Though I thought it looked pretty, it's not actually not on my tree.  Husband and kiddos vetoed that idea, which means I'll be giving it away to one lucky winner out there.  
 
 
It's a jacket proof for the hardcover of GOLDEN, and boy is it beautiful and shiny.  I actually had to turn the flash off to get a good shot because the light reflects off the foil just like the sunburst in the photo.
 
  I've signed it and handwritten my own GOLDEN playlist on the inside, and I would love to give it away along with...
 
A Special, bound-manuscript edition of GOLDEN
 
(The official ARCs will be out in January, so you can think of this as an advanced Advance Reader Copy)
 
We gave these away at NCTE in Las Vegas last month, and I have one extra that will go to one winner, along with the jacket proof.
 
All you have to do for a chance to win is:
 
Leave a comment here 
 
If you'd like to gather some extra entries, you can do so by:
 
Tweeting the giveaway (+1)
 
Sharing it on Facebook (+1)
 
Including a link to the giveaway on your blog (+1)
 
Please leave your entry total and the links in your comment.  I'm willing to work on the honor system if you are. 
 
This giveaway will stay open until 12pm PST on December 23rd, and I will post the winner bright and early on Christmas Eve. 
 
 
I hope this finds you all happy, healthy, and enjoying the holiday season,
 
 
Merry Christmas!
 
xoxo,
 
Jessi

  17. Happy Holidays Jessi!

    I've had recently heard some amazing amazing things about Golden (re: Tara at Fiction Folio). It's sort of the perfect book to give away during the holidays too because it has a sparkley title. :)

    Looking forward to your new work!

    (I'm actually very excitedly giving a copy of Moonglass to a friend for Christmas... I hope she loves it too.)

    I tweeted as well: http://twitter.com/ReadingGals/status/278506481148624896

  38. Oh my gosh I am SO excited for this amazing giveaway! I cannot WAIT to read Golden; it looks like another amazing story and the cover is B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L! I've read both Moonglass and In Honor multiple times; both novels truly changed my life as a teenager, and made me feel emotional and inspired all at once! You are one of my favorite authors ever, and it would mean SO MUCH to be able to get an Advanced advanced reader's copy of your newest novel! Thanks so much for this great giveaway, and I can't wait to see who the winner is!

    PS Good luck to everyone else who comments on here, I feel we're all on common ground as the readers of the world. :) And happy early Christmas!

    I tweeted about the giveaway too!
