By now you’ve probably noticed that pinkish-purplish button in my sidebar. I wanted to thank the readers of my blog by participating in the fourth Literary Giveaway Blog Hop, hosted by blogger Leeswammes.
The Literary Giveaway Blog Hop is an event taking place from Saturday, February 18 until (and including) Wednesday, February 22. Please stop by and enter my official contest between those dates! I’ll be announcing the giveaway book then. Good luck! :)
Here’s a clue: This author of this book struggled for two years to secure a publisher, and upon landing a deal, the book was not expected to sell. The author blames the trouble on the gender of the protagonist, which was contrary to what was expected of the genre at the time.
Fun trivia: The character Sawyer from the television show Lost read this book while stranded on the island.

Hmm, I’m thinking! Could it be a chicklit book with a male protagonist? Or a dystopian book with a female character? I’ll be looking out for your giveaway, Stephanie!
Stephanie
Thanks! :) Hmmmmmm, what could it be. Speculate away!

Oh gosh. I used to watch LOST all the time and I can’t remember what he was reading. There was even a lot of fan discussion about it. This is going to bug me . . .
Stephanie
Haha! Lost has that effect on all of us. :) I used to watch it, too.

Mmmm…I’m terrible at trivia.

Consider it something interesting to know once you find out what the giveaway book actually is!

didn’t watch the prog, so have no idea, but that’s my default setting.
