100 Followers Giveaway - It's Happening!

Alright, as the title states: it's happening. I went to the bookstore today and picked out the book I'll be sending to the lucky winner of my 100 Followers Giveaway. Are you all excited? Well you should be because I picked an AWESOME book! You ready?

It's The Bronte Sisters, a collection of three books, one from each sister: Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte and Agnes Grey by Anne Bronte.
How great is that? Now the whoever wins can be just like me and read something from each sister! And really, who doesn't want to be just like me, right? And I figure this book is great for anyone because everyone likes at least ONE of the Bronte sisters.

The only thing I have to do now is actually get to 100 followers. I'm 11 away at the moment (damn you #89!). So help spread the word about my blog because the sooner I get to #100 the sooner I'll open up this giveaway and the sooner you'll have a chance to win win win (I say it 3 times because it's really winning 3 books, see?)!!

The day I hit 100 I'll post the rules for entering the giveaway, so be prepared and stay alert...it could happen at any moment...

I am inspired that you actually went out and got the books. Perhaps I'll quit procrastinating and hold my own giveaway :)

Good luck getting to 100 followers!

Well I do have a B&N right by my house (dangerous!). But now I just need the followers and the book can be yours ;) I’m sick of staring at the #89 *pouts*

Smashing prize! I've started tweeting about it so here's hoping your numbers go up! :)

llevinso said...

Awesome! Thanks so much Audra :)

Lovely giveaway. Good luck, you'll be at 100 in no time at all.

I'm like Red I need to host a giveaway too...I keep thinking and talking about it, but never doing anything about it. Procrastination is a disease! LOL

What a great idea! And even better, what a great prize choice! I'm excited to follow your writing in the future!

@Stacey, thanks for the encouragement. I procrastinate too, but the #100 mark was a great kick in the butt :)

@journey, thanks so much! I did take great care in picking the book out.

You're almost there! (I'm your 82nd follower, apparently) Funny 'cause I'm hosting a giveaway for my 100th follower, too. Just seems like a good milestone to have.

llevinso said...

@Crowe, yes almost! Just 6 more followers to go. And hooray for your giveaway too! I think a lot of people do one for 100 followers. I think it's a big blogging milestone ;)

I saw your post on book blog and decided to check out your site (being a die hard sarcastic female myself). I'm glad I did. Great blog!! I'm a fan and a follower now.

llevinso said...

Glad to have you aboard Dana! :)

I've read two of the three but I've never read Agnes. Is she as good as her sisters? Seems like she's the lesser known of the Brontes. Oh and I'd love to get to 100. I'm at 89 too!

llevinso said...

@Monica, I recently read Agnes and posted my review here:http://femalebookreader.blogspot.com/2011/03/review-for-you-agnes-grey.html

Melissa said...

I happened upon your site and now I am your 101st follower! :)

llevinso said...

Woohooooooo!! I made it!! I'll post the official giveaway soon but first I have to do my review for American on Purpose.

@Melissa, hooray! Thanks for being #100 :) I like your blog by the way.

@Dorothy, thanks for stumbling by. Now I'm even passed 100. I'm on a roll ;)

Ahhh, I so badly wanted to be follower #100 - hahaha, but I'll settle for being follower #102 :)

Take your time with the review - I'm sure we'd all gladly wait. By the way, I LOVE the quote on your blog, the one that says "Feminism is the radical notion that women are people." Lol :P

Good luck in all your endeavors, and before you know it, you'll be doing a giveaway for reaching 200 Followers :)
