quotes Elisquared likes


"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."— John Green

The Seven Days of Secret Diamond Sisters Day 7 - Book!!


IT'S HERE!!!!


TODAY IS THE DAY!

The book will be hitting the shelves at a bookstore near you! What book am I talking about?  Well just the one I've been talking about for the past SEVEN days, Michelle Madow's newest book, THE SECRET DIAMOND SISTERS.

She has written a fun, sexy, and fast-paced novel about the lavish world of the Las Vegas elite, and the three everyday sisters caught up in it's web!  I loved the book so much, and I'm very excited to be a part of this amazing 7-day countdown organized by Tiffany at About to Read.  First, don't forget to catch up on all the posts!

SO as today is release day I am going to have ALL the links for online buying that I can think of, and of course if the book isn't at a bookstore near you DEMAND they order it!  I have a soft spot for fun contemporaries, and SDS just hits all the marks so well.

And because I loved the book so much I am holding a giveaway for TWO lucky winners to receive a personalized copy of The Secret Diamond Sisters as I am driving my butt to Miami to be at Michelle's release party for the book!  HOORAY!!  BUT you only have ONE day left to enter so hurry!

Also don't forget to scroll down for more info on the book, as well as check the link at the end for all the other blogs hosting giveaways/posts/reviews.


LAST FUN FACT ABOUT THE BOOK:

Researching these books is the most fun thing ever, because it involves going to Vegas and partying with friends <3 p="">
The Secret Diamond Sisters by Michelle Madow


Savannah. Courtney. Peyton. 

The three sisters grew up not knowing their father and not quite catching a break. But it looks like their luck is about to change when they find out the secret identity of their long-lost dad—a billionaire Las Vegas hotel owner who wants them to come live in a gorgeous penthouse hotel suite. Suddenly the Strip's most exclusive clubs are all-access, and with an unlimited credit card each, it should be easier than ever to fit right in. But in a town full of secrets and illusion, fitting in is nothing compared to finding out the truth about their past.

Nearly New Books Giveaway!


I Am a Reader, Not a Writer hosts this awesome feature each Tuesday.  I too love to receive books in the mail, and to buy the books I want to read. And while I might not get rid of the books I read (I re-read them all the time), there are some books that don't have a place on my shelves.  I figure giving them away would be nice!  This won't be a feature every Tuesday, like at I Am a Reader, Not a Writer, but it'll pop up now and then.
So without further ado, here's the books I have to giveaway!
OR

I should clarify, there will be ONE winner.

Banned Books Week Hop


THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED!  
THANKS TO THOSE WHO HAVE PARTICIPATED! 
 WINNERS ARE ANNOUNCED BELOW! CONGRATULATIONS!


I am finally participating in one of I Am a Reader, Not a Writer's many awesome book hops.  This book hop is particularly important to me as I am book advocate, and a member of ALA (Librarian-in-Training!).  I wholeheartedly believe that no book should ever be banned from anyone or challenged by anyone, even if the information contained within clearly opposes a person's personal beliefs (First Amendment anyone?).  You can read more about Banned Books Week at the ALA website or the Banned Books Week website.

For this hop I am giving away two books which have been challenged and banned: Looking for Alaska by John Green and Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson.  I adore both of these authors and really feel that their books speak to teenagers, and help them deal with issues they face all the time.  I'm also adding some extras to each package! Yay for surprises!

After you enter my giveaway, don't forget to hop on over to the others listed below!  Thanks so much and keep defending and fighting for books!
