Wicked Wednesday–the Big Giveaway

by Posted on

by Barb, fresh off a fun Memorial Day Weekend with Family

We’ve been giving away books and other items all month to celebrate our 10th Anniversary. Thank you to the guests who also participated by offering giveaways of their own.

To celebrate the last day of our anniversary month, the Wickeds have put together a big giveaway for one lucky commenter below. Wickeds, tell us what you’ve contributed and why you chose it.

Edith/Maddie: I’ll send the lucky winner a signed hardcover of A Tine to Live, a Tine to Die, my book that released a month after our blog was born, plus an audiobook code for my most recent book, Four Leaf Cleaver, an ARC of the next book out, Murder at a Cape Bookstore – both of them because they bookend the decade of blogging – an author magnet, and a set of brand new Wicked Authors coasters.

Liz: I’m sending a JJ’s House of Purrs mug and tote bag from the Cat Cafe Mysteries, as well as a full set of the Full Moon Mysteries, a copy of Gone But Not Furgotten and a couple of Pawsitively Organic books.

Sherry: Readers, thanks so much for being on this journey with us! I wish we could give each one of you a gift! I’m giving away the four Chloe Jackson Sea Glass Saloon mysteries, a Kensington coaster, four vintage postcards, and a flip-flop bottle opener.

Julie: I echo Sherry’s thank you to you all! I am giving away both Theater Cop books, and The Plot Thickets. We’re setting someone up with a great summer of reading!

Barb: I’m giving away a Busman’s Harbor map, a Snowden Family Clambake tote bag, an Advanced Reader Copy of Hidden Beneath, and a hardcopy of Irish Coffee Murder.

(We know you probably have at least a few of these books. We’re happy to have you give them to a reading friend or to your local library or library book sale.)

Readers: Comment below for a chance to win it all! Lot’s of you have wished us Happy Blogiversary all month, so feel free to just say “hi” or anything else that comes to mind.
