Spring Blog Carnival Hop Giveaway!

Welcome to my stop on the Spring Blog Carnival hop, hosted by Candace's Book Blog, Reading Angel, Pure Imagination, and The Book Swarm! There's over 200 other blogs participating as well, so don't forget to check them out on the linky list below, too!

For my giveaway, the winner's choice of one of two books is up for grabs (both of these are brand-new duplicate copies from my personal library). To enter, just leave your e-mail address in the comments section at the bottom of this post. Tell me which book you'd like, too. Extra points if you're a new or old follower, just let me know in your comment. Sorry to international blog hoppers, but this giveaway's only open to people with US mailing addresses.
Squire by Tamora Pierce
This is the third book in Pierce's Protector of the Small series, which is part of the Tortall universe. My extra copy of this is the 2001 Random House paperback edition. Synopsis of it here.





Stones for My Father by Trilby Kent
This is a great middle grade/YA historical fiction book about the 1890s Boer War in South Africa. The copy up for grabs is the hardback edition, published by Tundra Books back in March. My review of it can be read here.




Thanks for stopping by, and happy blog hopping!

    Thank you for the giveaway! I would like to be entered for Squire. (My sister is ripping through Tamora Pierce's books at the moment, and it won't be long until she needs that one.) :)
