Giveaway for Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris

Last month I was lucky enough to attend a book signing for Charlaine Harris and thanks to Flyboy, my wonderful and generous husband, I was able to purchase 2 books to have signed during the event. Now, I can be as spoiled as the next girl and selfish to boot so one copy is mine but the other is up for grabs!

This contest is going to be a little different from the usual 'leave a comment' variety, mostly because variety is the spice of life and never let it be said that VampChix are boring. So we're going to play a kiddie menu game and see how many words we can come up using 'Bon Temps'. We want to be fair and peeking isn't allowed. Instead of leaving a comment, email me at vampchixreadbooks@gmail.com with your contest entry.



Rules:
*contest runs until midnight EST June 17 with winner announced the following day
*to enter you must email me with all the words you have made with the letters in Bon Temps
*person with the most words wins and in case of a tie I will consult the magic hat, fishbowl or some other random method
*contest open only to U.S. shipping address

What's on tap?

Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris


I'm super excited to feature Charlaine Harris this month! Throughout the month we will be talking about all the characters in the Southern Vampire series, comparing and contrasting the books versus the HBO series, True Blood, and along the way we'll be launching a new feature. Beginning June 14th Jen will be bringing us the latest from True Blood in weekly episode recaps.

And wait, there's more!

In a few days I'll be announcing the next contest for a copy of Dead in the Family so be sure to watch out for that...and for those that are impatient like me, here's a hint...the contest begins on Monday.
