And the Winners Are. . .

Posted on: September 2, 2014

drumroll please!

it’s time to announce the winners of my Blind Date with A  Book Give Away!!   This was a little more complicated than just putting everyone’s name into random.org, so I went all old school on ya’ll, and literally drew names out of hats plastic containers.

What I’m always afraid pulling names out of hats fishbowls will look like:

Effie-Reaping-Bowl-The-Hunger-Games

 

What it really looked like:

2014-09-01 09.44.19

And then I did it four more times.  It was surprisingly fun!   Click through for all the winningness.  😀

the winner of the red and white science fiction book is:

the winner is Feet For Brains!

Feet For Brains!

 

The winner of the black and white time travel book is:

2014-09-01 09.50.41

 Wolfshowl!

 

The winner of the silver epic fantasy is:

the winner is curlygeek04!

The winner of the blue monster book is:

Congratulations to all the winners!  I’ll be e-mailing you shortly, please watch your inbox for an e-mail from redhead5318 at that g mail place. As soon as you reply with your US mailing address, I can send your wrapped blind date.    Winners, keep the fun going! When you receive your book, leave a comment here and/or tweet or e-mail me a photo of what your blind date book turned out to be!

[…] The Little Red Reviewer, a blog I’ve followed since I started my own, had the brilliant idea to do a blind date with a book giveaway a few weeks ago.  For those of you who don’t know, a blind date with a book is when a library/bookstore/person wraps a book up and puts a few clues about what the book might be about on the cover.  The idea is that you’re matched by concepts instead of cover or blurb.  I hadn’t seen this in giveaway form before, and I thought it was super brilliant of Redhead to use it for a print book giveaway.  Imagine my delight when I won one of the books!

some of the books reviewed here were free ARCs supplied by publishers/authors/other groups. Some of the books here I got from the library. the rest I *gasp!* actually paid for. I'll do my best to let you know what's what.
