Heather's big crazy birthday bash giveaway + new releases!

So here's the deal: Heather of Darkly Reading is having a big birthday bash-blowout-extravaganza-giveaway this week (through Friday the 25th) where she's giving away the first books in her fave series.

Go say hi and wish her a happy birthday and enter to WIN! It's fun to see the giant graphic of her fave firsts that are up for grabs. (And Mind Games is in there! In such excellent company! xo Heather, the check is in the mail!)

Heather and I discuss ...

Heather's also interviewing authors and having guest posters and all sorts of other mayhem, and I'm there today!

Heather asked some great questions - we discussed disillusionists, the restaurants we'd want to be trapped in, and I drop a couple hints about Double Cross! Come say hi and wish her a happy birthday! The interview is here. And again, the birthday bash/contest lowdown is here.

Whoa! Paranormal release day!

It's release day for the hotly anticipated Shades of Gray by Jackie Kessler and Caitlin Kittredge. See why C.E. Murphy says: "Jackie Kessler and Caitlin Kittredge have hit it out of the ballpark" with this one.

I also understand that there have been advance spottings of Tracking the Tempest! Gah! Where are my reading glasses!

Another chance to win...

And don't forget - you can also win Mind Games over at Paperback Dolls during Chicago week. Enter to win here. Also, check out the Chloe Neill Chicago post here! She's doing a hunger walk. Way to go, Chloe! Apparently some authors don't just sit around talking about themselves. (* g *)

And Book Addict Patti's having a Blogaversary!

Also, Book Addict Patti is having a big blogaversary blowout where you can win a bunch of fabulous signed books by some of my favorite authors. Go wish her a happy blogaversary and enter here! Happy Blogaversary, Patti!
