Win-It Wednesday: Secrets of My Suburban Life

Thanks for sharing your summer plans last week and indulging my inner busybody! The randomly chosen winner of Not Anything is... Katie in NC, my East Regional Library friend! I know you're off with your grandparents, Katie, but let me know your address when you return. Now, this week's contest is for a signed copy of Lauren Baratz-Logsted's Secrets of My Suburban Life. This book got to me because the main character, Ren, has such a great voice. And she writes letters to her mother, who died in an accident involving Harry Potter books. Not kidding. The plot was fun and intriguing, and the letters themselves broke my heart and then put it back together again. So, to win a copy of this book, just comment below and tell me what you'd like to see during release week for Violet in Private. I'm thinking of daily contests, natch, but anything else you'd love? Let me know! Or just say hi if you don't have an idea, that counts too. Happy Wednesday. PS-If you want to get a copy of Violet in Private on August 5th, ask your bookstore or library to pre-order it for you. That will ensure they have it... (for those of you who've had trouble finding the Violet books). Also, that will make me really happy. Thanks! PPS-If you give me an idea that I end up using, I'll send you an advance copy of Violet in Private... I just thought of that. And I'll do it! PPPS-If you post about this contest, in a myspace bulletin or on your blog or wherever, I'll count your entry twice... just let me know in the comments below. Ok, I'm done!
