Wind-down Wednesday

To start off another wonderful Wednesday I would love to thank the wonderful Creepy Query Girl for giving me the Beautiful Blogger Award.

The fantastic bloggers I'm going to be passing it on to are:

• Shannon O'donnell
• Lydia Kang
• Justine Dell
• Stina Lindenblatt
• Elana Johnson

And, now for the fun. There are a lot of contests happening out there at the moment:

• Lisa and Laura is holding a contest for a book giveaway of Picture the Dead.
• Shooting Stars is holding another book giveaway.
• Casey McCormick is giving away a copy of Laurie Halse Anderson's Wintergirls
• Jessica Brody is holding a contest to giveaway a Flip Video Camera to celebrate the release of her YA book, Karma Code. The only catch is you need a US or Canadian postal address.

I would also like to congratulate Cole Gibson. She has received an announcement in Publisher's Weekly that her novel, Katana will be published. That's great news, and I can't wait to read it.

And, to leave everyone on this bright day, here's the trailer for Jessica Brody's Karma Club. I can't wait to read it because it sounds like a great book.
