Follow Friday #9



This weeks question is:

What character in a book would you most like to be, what character in a book would you most like to date?

This is a toughie!
I think I'd most like to be Shay in Scott Westerfield's Uglies series



I think Shay is pretty underrated as a character in these books, in fact I think these books themselves are completely underrated, I loved them!

As for dating - Urm I honestly don't know. I don't think I can choose, please don't make me choose!

September Indie Author Giveaway!




As a lot of you will already know I do try very hard to work with Indie/Self Published authors when I can. I believe that Indie authors work a lot harder than authors who go down the traditional publishing route and most of the time the do not get the recognition they or their books deserve.

Because of that I have teamed up with some awesome Indie authors who have very kindly agreed to donate e-copies of their books for this giveaway!!

There will be one winner, who will win a copy of each of the books listed below.
The giveaway will run from September 2nd until September 16th.
You must be over 13 to enter.
You must be a blog follower to enter.
Give is open worldwide as the prizes are e-books.
Winner will be chosen by rafflecopter and announced on the 17th of September.

So what can you win?
There are 10 awesome books to be won by one lucky winner!


Antara by Marilena Mexi, Take This Regret by Amy Lichtenhan, Moon Spell by Samantha Young, Unlovable by Sherry Gammon, Violet Midnight by Allie Burke, Every Last Kiss by Courtney Cole, I Wish... by Wren Emerson, Remembrance by Michelle Madow and Loramendi's Story by Angela Davis.

Please note that I will be passing the winners email address onto each of the authors so they can send the winner a copy of their book themselves, if you do not wish to have your email address passed on to the authors then please do not take part in the giveaway. Your email address will be deleted after the giveaway is over, or if you win - after you have received your prizes.
