YRAH Bday: Ink GIVEAWAY


I promised you guys I will have an awesome event and I keep my promises!

YOUNG READERS blog is now 2 years old!

And 

THAT

calls for a celebration!

I'm going to post giveaways, excerpts etc. weekly from now on!

FIRST up is the giveaway of a book that I'm very interested in....

I looked down at the paper, still touching the tip of my shoe. I reached for it, flipping the page over to look.

Scrawls of ink outlined a drawing of a girl lying on a bench.

A sick feeling started to twist in my stomach, like motion sickness.

And then the girl in the drawing turned her head, and her inky eyes glared straight into mine.


On the heels of a family tragedy, the last thing Katie Greene wants to do is move halfway across the world. Stuck with her aunt in Shizuoka, Japan, Katie feels lost. Alone. She doesn’t know the language, she can barely hold a pair of chopsticks, and she can’t seem to get the hang of taking her shoes off whenever she enters a building.

Then there’s gorgeous but aloof Tomohiro, star of the school’s kendo team. How did he really get the scar on his arm? Katie isn’t prepared for the answer. But when she sees the things he draws start moving, there’s no denying the truth: Tomo has a connection to the ancient gods of Japan, and being near Katie is causing his abilities to spiral out of control. If the wrong people notice, they'll both be targets.

Katie never wanted to move to Japan—now she may not make it out of the country alive.

Harlequin TEEN was amazing enough to offer a FINISHED copy of Ink for giveaway.

Unfortunately, the giveaway is for North American addresses only.

Not to worry I have loads of INTERNATIONAL giveaways coming up as well my international peeps!

  3. Happy Blogiversary! I've seen this book around but I never knew what it was about. It sound amazing. The whole idea of moving to another country fascinates me so I hope that Ink has a lot of details about Japan!

  10. I love that this book takes place in Japan. It's so interesting and it must be quite a culture shock for the main character. On a shallow note, the cover is just so pretty I think I would pick it up without even knowing what the book's about :) Thanks for the chance to win!

  16. They can psyche out a person and let them think that they have no
    chance of winning. I strongly advise which you use the first suggestion to figure out your number of outs after which it
    double that amount. It is just experience that allows some of us to hide them better then others.
