This book is part of the huge Sizzling Summer Nights 5 book giveaway ending on 9/1/2010, so go enter there if you didn’t win here (or if you did, but want to win some of the other fabulous books).
Thank you to Forever and thank you to everyone that entered– a particular thanks to those of you that provided a favorite contemporary romance to add to my list to explore. Some of these include
Some of these authors I know, some I don’t… yet!
The Disappearing Spoon is one of my favorite books I’ve read this year (see my review), and I think it will have a very wide appeal. I’m very excited to be able to pick 2 people to win a copy, thanks to Little, Brown and Company/Hachette Books. I strongly encourage everyone else to obtain a copy from their book provider of choice, and support the production of fantastic books like this one.
Sam Kean will be interviewed next week on Blog Talk Radio next week, and I’m including the announcement at the end of this post.
The lucky winners are:
Thank you to everyone that answered the bonus question– I enjoyed reading the responses, particularly the punny ones (“My favorite element is Iron because when you put a lot of Fe in a circle you have a ferrous wheel.”) . All together, 16 different elements were mentioned, with gold getting the top spot (with 5 people including it), followed by iron.
(I’m including this announcement because I want to support the book. I don’t know anything more about it that is listed here, I’m aware there is an issue with the date listed. I think it’s Wednesday, not Thursday, but I’ve sent e-mail to clarify!)

Thanks to Hachette Books/Forever, I was able to offer a giveaway for 5 copies of To Surrender to a Rogue by Cara Elliott.
For a bonus entry in the drawing, I asked what style of romance people prefer. Unsurprisingly, there were a variety of answers. I did have some company in liking books where the characters spend time getting to know each other, then fall in love. However, many of you like the fireworks at the beginning, and I think you will really enjoy this book.
Thanks to random.org, the winners are
I’ve already sent them e-mail, and hope to hear back quickly! Thank you to everyone that entered.
Congratulations to
They’ve each won a copy of To Desire a Devil from Hachette Books via my giveaway. This was probably my favorite romance novel of the year (I’ll be looking back over my 2009 reads soon, and will confirm), so I suspect the winners will enjoy it as well.
Thank you to everyone that entered my giveaway and to Hachette Book Group for allowing me to host it. (See my review for Life After Genuis.)

Thank you to everyone that entered!
There are some clear favorite chick lit authors out there:
I’ve already read (and enjoyed) many of Marian Keyes, Meg Cabot and Jennifer Weiner’s books. I’ve picked up Sophie Kinsella’s books at Costco many times, but never actually took one home. I think I’ll try one next time. I also was intrigued by the comment about Girl From Mars, so that one will go on my list. I liked the looks of Knickles and Dimes. I’ll look at even more of them later.
The winners of The Smart One and The Pretty One by Claire LaZebnik are

Happy Reading!
I said I’d give away at least 5 bookmarks during BBAW. The mailing of the first 5 was uneventful, so I’m sending out 5 more to those that entered. I went ahead and added 5 to the selection, so here is what these 5 have to choose from:
