Wherever Nina Lies Giveaway!

Today, I have the pleasure of introducing awesome prize(s) and a wonderful author here to spotlight here on Park-Avenue Princess today!  THREE of My Readers/Followers will have the chance to WIN their very own copy of "Wherever Nina Lies" by author Lynn Weingarten!

Let me give you a little background on "Wherever Nina Lies" -

Nina was beautiful, wild, and adored by her younger sister, Ellie. But, one day, Nina disappeared. Two years later, everyone has given up home that Nina will return, but Ellie knows her sister is out there. If only Ellie had a clue where to look. Then she gets one, in the form of a mysterious drawing. Determined to find Nina, Ellie takes off on a crazy, sexy, cross-country road trip with the only person who believes she’s got a chance—her hot, adventurous new crush. Along the way, Ellie finds a few things she wasn’t planning on. Like love. Lies. And the most shocking thing of all: the truth.


I got a chance to read this book and loved it! I know you will too! Ellie is an amazing character, amazing enough for me to read Wherever Nina Lies in ONE Sitting!  If you'd like a copy of your own, please read on...

Giveaway ~ The Lonely Hearts Club by Elizabeth Eulberg!

I'm SO excited to bring you a giveaway for "The Lonely Hearts Club" by Elizabeth Eulberg! This book is simply fantastic! I read this in one sitting from cover-to-cover! Talk about a page turner! I didn't want it to end! For me, the only downfall of this book was that it was over much too soon! Elizabeth Eulberg made me realize just how many connections, we, as young women really have! Penny was a friend by the end of the book! And if anyone says different I have one word "What to the Ev"!

I hope you LOVE "The Lonely Hearts Club" just as much as I did!  THREE Lucky followers will win a finished copy with the new gorgeous cover right here at Park-Avenue Princess!  This online giveaway is to celebrate the release of  "The Lonely Hearts Club" by Elizabeth Eulberg.  There is one rule other than mine which is -- Anyone may participate that has a U.S. mailing address (where the book can be shipped to) International followers may win only if there is a US address that can receive the prize for them!  Please pay strict attention to that rule, because these books are not coming directly from me.   A finished copy of the book has a value of $17.99 each.

Here's a Little Bit about THE LONELY HEARTS CLUB!

Penny is sick of boys and sick of dating, so she vows: No more. She’s had one too many bad dates, and has been hurt by one too many bad boys. It’s a personal choice…and soon everybody wants to know about it. It seems that Penny’s not the only girl who’s tired of the way girls change themselves (most of the time for the worse) in order to get their guys…or the way their guys don’t really care about them. Girls are soon thronging to The Lonely Hearts Club (named after Sgt. Pepper’s band), and Penny finds herself near legendary for her non-dating ways – which is too bad, since the leader of The Lonely Hearts Club has found a certain boy she can’t help but like…

Not convinced? And I don't know how that can even be a possibility, but here ya' go...




About Elizabeth Eulberg -

The short and sweet version:
(taken from her site)

Elizabeth Eulberg was born and raised in Wisconsin before heading off to Syracuse University and then making a career in the New York City book biz. She lives outside of Manhattan with her three guitars, two keyboards, and one drumstick. In researching The Lonely Hearts Club, she tried swearing off boys forever. It didn’t work.

The Long and Babbling Version can be found HERE!

 

But I do have to mention one quote that I absolutely LOVED from Elizabeth's site!  Here it is...

 

In the fabulous words of Elizabeth herself - In reference to LHC and how she started writing in the fall of 2004 until the very end of the book in final draft mode -

"Even though many things changed, the heart of the story remained the same: single girls, do indeed, rule and never, ever change yourself for a guy. Oh yeah, and boys are stupid."

I LOVE this woman and I LOVE this book!

Catching Fire Book, T-Shirt & Pin Giveaway!!

This is an AMAZING CONTEST and I am SO excited to be able to bring this to you! OK...THREE of my readers are going to get a chance to win "Catching Fire" by Suzanne Collins! Not only the book, but a really Limited Edition T-Shirt and Collectible Pin as well! Interested? Keep reading...

This contest is going to run a little bit different than the rest of my contests, so please read the entire post and make sure you follow the instructions!

How to Enter:

To enter, please leave a comment with your name, and email address so that I may contact you if you win! This contest will run until SEPTEMBER 24th and I will announce the winners the next day!

Rules:

The Catching Fire book promotion is open to participants with a United States mailing address only (international readers can enter if you have a friend in the States who can accept your prizes by mail!). Entrants under age 13 must have parent or guardian permission to enter. The Catching Fire book promotion runs from September 1 to September 15, 2009. Winners will be announced on or around September 16, 2009.

A Little Background:

"Catching Fire" is the much awaited second edition to the ever popular "Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins! So, before I get into what you win, for those of you that haven't had the great-fortune to read "The Hunger Games", let me give you a little background!


About The Hunger Games:

Twenty-four are forced to enter. Only the winner survives.

In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. Each year, the districts are forced by the Capitol to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the Hunger Games, a brutal and terrifying fight to the death – televised for all of Panem to see.

Survival is second nature for sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who struggles to feed her mother and younger sister by secretly hunting and gathering beyond the fences of District 12. When Katniss steps in to take the place of her sister in the Hunger Games, she knows it may be her death sentence. If she is to survive, she must weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

Sounds too good to miss doesn't it? Well, watch this...



The Second Installment!

Catching Fire:

Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has won the annual Hunger Games with fellow district tribute Peeta Mellark. But it was a victory won by defiance of the Capitol and their harsh rules. Katniss and Peeta should be happy. After all, they have just won for themselves and their families a life of safety and plenty. But there are rumors of rebellion among the subjects, and Katniss and Peeta, to their horror, are the faces of that rebellion. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge.

Hungry for MORE?



Still not sure? How about the First Chapter?

About Suzanne Collins:

Since 1991, Suzanne Collins has been busy writing for children’s television. She has worked on the staffs of several Nickelodeon shows, including the Emmy-nominated hit Clarissa Explains it All and The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo. For preschool viewers, she penned multiple stories for the Emmy-nominated Little Bear and Oswald. She also co-wrote the critically acclaimed Rankin/​Bass Christmas special, Santa, Baby! Most recently she was the Head Writer for Scholastic Entertainment’s Clifford’s Puppy Days.

While working on a Kids WB show called Generation O! she met children’s author James Proimos, who talked her into giving children’s books a try.



Thinking one day about Alice in Wonderland, she was struck by how pastoral the setting must seem to kids who, like her own, lived in urban surroundings. In New York City, you’re much more likely to fall down a manhole than a rabbit hole and, if you do, you’re not going to find a tea party. What you might find...? Well, that’s the story of Gregor the Overlander, the first book in her five-part fantasy/​war series, The Underland Chronicles.

At present, Suzanne is hard at work on the third book in her sci-fi series, The Hunger Games.

She currently lives in Connecticut with her family and a pair of feral kittens they adopted from their backyard.
