Dean Koontz Autographed Book Give-Away – Update!

Angela1 Comment

I was made aware that the Rafflecopter giveaway link is not working correctly in my blog post from yesterday. I am reposting the link below, it should take you to a webpage. If, once you get there, it will not load, please send me an email at angi.gibbs@yahoo.com, with Dean Koontz as the subject, and I will put your name down for the drawing.

I am currently looking for another giveaway platform to use for my future giveaways, and hopefully it will go much smoother.

I also wanted my new followers to know that although the requirement is to follow my blog to be put in the drawing, I do still need you to enter your email via the Rafflecopter link. I received several new followers yesterday, and I just want to make sure if you followed to be part of the drawing, to please go to the link, or email me if necessary, to get put into the drawing.

I appreciate, and get super-geeked :-), over each and every new follow, so I want to personally say Thank you for choosing to follow my blog! It means the world to me!

Here is the link, and I hope it cooperates better this time!

Who knew it could be so difficult to give away things???

Autographed Dean Koontz Book – Give-Away #2

Angela1 Comment

I am going to make this one short, sweet, and simple 🙂 I have an autographed Dean Koontz book, “Innocence”. I purchased the book via Barnes & Noble from a presale of 500 autographed books. This book is not numbered, and it has not been read. I opened it to take photographs of the autographs inside. Other than that, it has been stored and not touched.

If you are a Dean Koontz fan, or know someone this would make a great gift for, be sure and enter via Rafflecopter. All you need to do is follow this blog if you do not currently do so. I have this give-away ending at Midnight on Thanksgiving day, or 12 am on Black Friday, however you prefer to look at it. The winner will be randomly chosen and announced on Friday, November 28th, and this book will be on the way to the winner as soon as I hear back from them (You!).

I do have several of Dean’s books, but I know the mere fact that this book is autographed is going to keep me from reading it. I would rather someone who would read it, or enjoys Dean Koontz even more than I do, to have this book.

So get to it! Follow, enter, share, reblog, retweet, and whatever else you do! The sooner I give this book away, the sooner I can get to give-away #3 🙂 I have another autographed book by another famous author, as well as some more Amazon gift cards, and more than likely some more things book as Christmas approaches!

There’s Nothing Like A Day of Illness…

…to make a person appreciate how wonderful it is to feel, well, wonderful! My first official day of my 9 days off for Thanksgiving break, yesterday, consisted of me vomiting, dry-heaving, sweating, shaking, cold-sweats, and a headache from Hades that I could not take anything for, because it would not stay down anyhow.

So I did not get any of my reading or reviews done, at least not like I had thought I would. I never left the vicinity of my bedroom-bathroom until about 6pm, and managed to eat some jello! Which lead to taking some ibuprofen, and a cup of Thera-flu. I feel spectacular today, and am taking advantage of it. So I was up at 6am making cupcakes, cleaned the house, and got groceries at 8am before the stores got crazy busy. It is a trip to Allendale to visit my oldest, and then off to the movies with my youngest two to watch Mockingjay. My 16 year old is having a whirlwind visiting spree with her Father and extended family.

I have 8 more days off, and besides helping my homeschooler, I have a whole lot of books to get read, and I have every intention of getting it done 🙂

Wishing you a warm, healthy, Blessed Sunday full of comfort and a good book to read!

More reviews coming soon, and my next giveaway will begin, tomorrow! Stay tuned 🙂
