Giveaway: ARC of Pink by Lili Wilkinson


So having just finished reading and reviewing Pink by Lili Wilkinson, I am passing it on to one of you to enjoy!

Summary from Goodreads:

"Ava has a secret. She is tired of her ultracool attitude, ultra-radical politics, and ultrablack clothing. She's ready to try something new—she's even ready to be someone new. Someone who fits in, someone with a gorgeous boyfriend, someone who wears pink.

Transferring to Billy Hughes School for Academic Excellence is the perfect chance to try on a new identity. But just in case things don't work out, Ava is hiding her new interests from her parents, and especially from her old girlfriend.

Secrets have a way of being hard to keep, though, and Ava finds that changing herself is more complicated than changing her wardrobe. Even getting involved in the school musical raises issues she never imagined. As she faces surprising choices and unforeseen consequences, Ava wonders if she will ever figure out who she really wants to be.

Humor, heart, and the joys of drama—on- and offstage—combine in Ava's delight-fully colorful journey of self-discovery."

    Cool giveaway, thanks.

    Something pink....currently I have on pink nail polish. I originally though it was red, that is until I actually put it on. I'm quite fond of it though.... so pretty. Nothing like pink on your nails to make you smile :)

    PInk ... PInk ... what about the singer? Strictly speaking, she is not Pink - but isn't she awesome? Like, her songs, her attitude, the way she promotes female autonomy and power - I have to respect that!

    Thanks!

    The book cover makes me want to say something like 'pink is the new black,' but to be honest, I've never been a very pink person. Though in my ever-growing age I have grown to appreciate the color. Plus, I love to buy pink collars for my dog and cat.

    Pink has consumed my life! I own pink shirts, socks, sweater, blankets, pillows, scissors, spatulas, EVERYTHING lol. But, all my pink buying goes to support a cause close to my heart, breast cancer. So, anywhere you see pink in my house, there's usually a pink ribbon on it! : )

Interview with Kimberly Derting and yes a giveaway!!!

Wow these contest are really adding up. I should have done one HUGE contest for all the books i'm giving away, but authors are very busy people and I didn't know when I would have which interviews back so I just separated them. So anyways, there's this book coming out in March called The Body Finder, i'm mostly sure you've heard of it but if not here's the trailer, watch it! Now that you know about this awesome book, how about an interview with the author! Yes, Kimberly has been kind enough to stop by and answer a few questions. Q: To start, can you tell us a little bit about yourself? A: Let’s see…I live in the Northwest with my husband and our three kids. I’m always surrounded by teenagers (my kids and their friends), which I think helps with my writing. Sometimes I’ll ask for their opinions on dialogue. Sometimes I just eavesdrop and call it “research.” Q: For those reading that don't already know, what is The Body Finder about? A: Sixteen-year...

Character Interview & Giveaway!

So for my part in the Tyger, Tyger blog tour for Teen Book Scene I did a character interview. Well im unconvential in my ways and since I wanted to ask multiple characters questions, I decided to ask five characters one question each, instead of asking one character five questions! Without further adeiu, I give you my multiple character interview! ~~~~~ Aiden: Singing is a huge part of your life. What is your favorite song to sing, and what is your favorite song to listen to? My favorite song to sing is, “Aiden is the hero.” I make up the words when I hear music. I like to listen to old songs, guy songs, not princess songs. There’s always a song around me. Like in the movies, when the music tells you things about what’s about to happen. I listen to it, and that’s how I know what to sing. Tonight, I want my Dad to sing the monsters away before I go to sleep, because I keep hearing, Bad Moon Rising http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BmEGm-mraE&feature=related My dad will make it...

Wow! This is my 300th post on this blog. *tears up* It's definitely been a fun-filled journey reaching this point. I've met many amazing bloggers and authors, and so I lift my virtual champagne glass and toast to (hopefully) 300 more!

Valentine's Day is the celebration of love after all, no one said it had to be directed to another person ;).
