About the Book:

Jena, Dakota, Skye, and Owen are all at Paradise—the resort in the Caribbean, that is—for different reasons, but in Paradise their lives become tangled together in ways none of them can predict. Over the course of four months, through four voices and four stories, what happened in Paradise will change them all.

In this extraordinary novel, the Printz Honor–winning author brings us her most accomplished work yet. Tangled is a story of the secrets we keep, the risks we take, and the things we do for love.

I Loved This Book & The Cover is Adorable! Stay tuned for my review soon! For now, you can Win It!

Giveaway to Sell Your "Soul" For...

What would you say if I told you that *I* have the key to you winning your choice of either a Kindle 2, Sony Pocket E-Reader or the new Barnes & Noble Nook?  What if I said that that's the GRAND Prize in this Contest/Giveaway?  Are you interested in Second and Third  Place Prizes as well?  This is it! The "Giveaway to Sell Your SOUL For..."    Why are we calling it that? Hell-O did you see the GRAND PRIZE? The real reason is that debut author Matthew Carter is sponsoring this Giveaway to celebrate his first book "LIQUID SOUL"!  Cute huh? (I came up with that idea...and yes, I even surprise myself sometimes)  Which ever reader the winner chooses will also come with an ebook copy of  LIQUID SOUL!

Now that I have your FULL attention, Let me remind you of the post I did on the book LIQUID SOUL which can be found HERE.  Second Place Prizes will be (Two Winners) Hardcover copy of LIQUID SOUL *signed* and a Gift Card for $20.00 to Amazon.com!  Third Place will be (Five Winners) A *signed* Trade Copy of LIQUID SOUL! Isn't that an Amazing Prize Package?

I know what you're thinking, and I'm going to get right to it and tell you HOW you get in the running to win this Giveaway! Please pay attention to the Rules and Follow them! This is different from any and all other contests I have going right now...if you are drawn as the winner and have not followed ALL the Rules then another name will be drawn.  Let me explain...

You can do just ONE or ALL of these things, and each thing you do will give you additional entries for a chance to WIN. This contest will be going on until December 24th at Midnight EST and WOW! What a Holiday Gift this is! Winners will be announced right here on Park-Avenue Princess January 1, 2010! Happy New Year!  You have until then to do the different things that YOU choose to do. Matthew Carter will be giving away YOUR Choice of either a Kindle 2, Sony Reader or the New Barnes & Noble Nook  to ONE VERY lucky winner, and signed copies of LIQUID SOUL as stated above and Two Amazon Gift Cards. Contest open to readers worldwide and will run until 11:59 pm EST 12/24!  Please make sure that your name is in some way different from all other names that may be added during the contest period (use a nickname or your last initital if you have a common name) and be sure to leave your email address. NO EMAIL, NO WIN because I have no way of contacting you! Winners will have 72 hours to contact me claiming their prizes.  If you do not claim the prize within that period of time, I will pick another name! Winner's WILL be contcated via email so watch for them! The prizes stated are the prizes you will get NO substitutions will be allowed.

Below are all of the different things you can CHOOSE from to enter.

1. The easiest way to enter is by purchasing a copy and/or copies of Matthew’s book LIQUID SOUL.

To purchase a print copy of Liquid Soul from Amazon click here.

To purchase a print copy of Liquid Soul from Barnes & Noble click here.

If you'd like to purchase a signed copy, (Hard or Trade) please contact Matthew at LiquidSoulBook@gmail.com .  The cost of a signed Hardcover is $30.00 and a signed Trade is $20.00.

It is NOT mandatory to purchase anything to enter the contest, there are MANY other ways to enter and WIN. Also, just because you purchase a book, that does not in any way guarantee you a winning spot.  I know that most of you will realize this on your own, but I just want to be clear that this is the way Mr. Carter is choosing to hand out the most extra points!  Also please note that the author will be selecting the winner of this contest, not myself and that I am in no way responsible for mailing out any of the above-said prizes.

If you do decide to purchase copies of the book, please email me a copy of your purchase receipt to PrincessPrizes@yahoo.com.  How many points extra will you get? Excellent question!

400 points per *signed* hard copy
350 points per *signed* soft copy
300 points per hard copy
150 points per trade copy
75 points per ebook copy




This must be verified with your receipt of purchase.  Copies purchased before this time are not eligible.  Remember the holidays are right around the corner and books make a perfect gift for anyone! I LOVED this book!  If you're into Thrillers, I highly recommend LIQUID SOUL!

Then, there are the usual ways to earn extra points and by 'usual', I mean just like in the other contests I host, I leave a charming little list of things you can do and you post which ones you choose!  Another thing you should know is that the winner will not be chosen by who has the highest number of points.  Simply put, the amount of points is the amount of entries you have so the Grand Prize can go to ANYONE!

Basically...

First and foremost, I'd like to apologize for my lack of blogging lately... or should I say my absence?  I've been going through a tough time with my health again and I'm going to try to make up for me not being here this week.  I've got SO many things coming up!  Really...  You'll be amazed.  But, I really wanted to take a minute just to say "Thank You" to all of you that have emailed, sent a mail through the contact button, called and tweeted just to say "Hello", wondering how I am doing, and wishing me well.  I can't tell you just how touched I am.  The book blogging community is filled with SO many truly wonderful, caring and sweet people ... really, I am over-whelmed with the out pouring of support and kindess.  If there were only more people in the world like all of you.  I have really amazing readers!  So, I'll stop being sappy and teary-eyed now, say a HUGE "Thank You" and  go on with what's coming up! OK?

Up next is the LONG Awaited Contest for the Kindle or Sony e-reader! The Winner will get their choice courtesy of author Matthew Carter (Liquid Soul).  I've got the rules on how you can win that one coming up! So, the button over there to the right...is wrong...it WILL be replaced! You do NOT want to miss being a part of this! Also, for those of you that missed the "Never Slow Dance with a Zombie" Twitter Contest hosted by me and sponsored by the author of that wonderful book E. Van Lowe (your prizes will be out to you THIS week) I have a copy of "Never Slow Dance with a Zombie" and the cutest "Zombie Love" T-Shirt EVER and I do mean EVER! Make sure you keep an eye out for that.  If I don't list it...I decided to keep it for me, it's that Adorable!  Me likey!  : )

For those of you that don't know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month!  So, I have some Pink items and another special giveaway for this wonderful cause.  The American Cancer Society is VERY Near and Dear to Me! I love that they are the "Official Sponsor of Birthdays" and I'm happy to say that ONE of those birthdays are MINE! While I did not have breast cancer, I feel that a person dealing with any type of this disease can relate to just how important it is to stay positive, keep fighting and to never give up! We WILL One Day Find a Cure!  I have an adorable Pink Curling Iron and Straightening Iron from Barbar coming up that I will review and then ONE Lucky Reader will have the very same item that I received.  If you'd like to know what it looks like, just check HERE!  There will be other items up this month, be sure to look for those!

Now because October is also time for Halloween, I have quite a few spooktacular book reviews and giveaways coming up!  One includes a HAUNTINGLY HUGE HALLOWEEN GIVEAWAY sponsored by Hachette Book Group which includes FIVE Spooky Books for each of THREE Very Lucky Winners!  With that Giveaway, your name will be put in a drawing, and you could be one of 20 people that will  also be receiveing a SIXTH Book which is an ARC of "The Bride Collector" by Ted Dekker! What are the other five? Watch for the Giveaway!

Enough right?  After those, you don't want ANY more Giveaways.... right? I mean, you must be all giveawayed-out! NO! I'm Shocked! Well then, good thing because I've got MORE! 

I'm SO sorry I've been away and I will be making it up to all of you, but I did miss being able to write and talk with all of you!  I'm going to TRY (key word) to post at least one post daily.  If not, it's probably because I'm just not feeling too well that day but I WILL post as I can.

I do have one *little* thing that I'd like to address because I did have a problem with this.  For the MOST part, I (as in ME, Personally) am VERY Rarely responsible for sending out Prizes! With that said, I am also not responsible for any prizes that are NOT received by you once I submit your name to the specific publishers, companes, and/or PR companies. OK?  I am SURE they will ALL send what's promised to you.  Just give them a little time. If you feel you've been waiting a LONG time (like 8-10 weeks) then feel free to drop me a line about a prize and I'll see what I can do.  I have never come across a company that didn't send the prize.  I just thought I'd add that as my *disclaimer* to all of you lucky lucky prize winners!  In other words, I put up my HONEST review based on either the book/product that I recieved and then I pass along the books and products that are promised in a giveaway to you!  Most of the time this only includes me sending your name along. IF FOR SOME REASON I (as in ME, Personally) HAVE THE PRIZE HERE - I WILL MAIL THAT OUT TO YOU AS SOON AS I CAN!  If I'm a late, I do apologize, but things come up and the day it gets mailed out to you, I promise you will get an email from me! If I have the prize you WILL have your prize!  Now that all that has been discussed, it will not be brought up again...it's listed on the "Giveaway Policy" Page which is tabbed at the top of my blog!

I hope you're ready to WIN...because I'm getting ready for the holidays which are my favorite time of the year and THIS PRINCESS is in the GIVING MOOD!  Thank you ALL again!  I'm a *bit late* with "Saturday Spotlight" but I'll see if I can get it up! If not, I do have some winners!  Sorry for the long-winded post, it was MUCH needed!

If YOU have any questions, comments and/or concerns, PLEASE feel free to contact me! I'm always ONE CLICK AWAY! After all, without your input, this blog cannot continue to grow! So -- Preach to the Princess!!  Also, I want to suggest - that means strongly but you don't have to do it - that you sign up for email subscriptions or my feed so you don't miss your name when you win and important posts that are listed.  I have some ROYAL GIVEAWAYS coming up that are NOT TO BE MISSED!!

That's all for now! I'll be back with THREE Big Winners!! (and possibly a Saturday Spotlight!)
