WINNERS!

Guys, this last contest was SO. MUCH. FUN. I hope y'all enjoyed it as much as I did--I loved going to your blogs and checking out the books you loved...and I've added an inexorable amount of them to my TBR list! You guys really went above and beyond--I loved how many of you put so much thought into the book(s) you were truly the most grateful to have read. And it put a smile on my face to see the ones written by friends!

In addition to the Thanksgiving contest, I also have a contest for a signed copy of CROSSED by Ally Condie. And the winner of that one is... JEN @ MIDNIGHT BOOK REVIEWS!

But I know most of you are probably the most curious to see who won the big prizes for the Thanksgiving contest.

And I am cruel and like to extend your anxiety...

Hehehehe....

For the curious: the most popular book selected for this was HARRY POTTER. The second most popular book was one or more of the TWILIGHT books. Several of you picked classics, such as CATCHER IN THE RYE, but at least half of you picked books published in the last ten or so years (NIGHTSHADE was a popular title for that, as was the HUNGER GAMES books).

Of the winners: 1 person who won entered on the first day the contest was open, 1 person who won entered on the last day it was open. (Just thought that was a neat tid-bit.) I did moderate the winners and only selected winners who properly entered and followed the instructions.

OK, so there are five prizes total--3 signed copies of ACROSS THE UNIVERSE with swag, 1 signed copy of ACROSS THE UNIVERSE with swag and a box of Turkish Delight, and one Grand Prize winner of all 19 signed books.

We'll start small...

But since you had to tell me what book you're most grateful for in order to win, I thought it might be fun to make you click to see who won based on the book they're most grateful for.

The winners of the signed ACROSS THE UNIVERSE with swag are...

This person, who is most grateful for DELTORA QUEST!

This person, who is most grateful for HARRY POTTER!

And also this person, who is also most grateful for HARRY POTTER!

The winner of the signed ACROSS THE UNIVERSE with swag and a box of Turkish Delight is...

This person, who is most grateful for ANNA AND THE FRENCH KISS!

And...

drumroll please...

The winner of 19 signed books, swag, a box of Turkish Delight, and as much goodies as I can cram in the boxes is....

This librarian, who is most grateful for BOY MEETS BOY!!!

Congrats to all the winners,
