more giveaways

1. Go check out Fashionista Piranha for this awesome contest. Here's what she says:

"I am a sucker for good historical fiction (perhaps you have noticed?) and I am especially fond of historical fiction centering around kings and queens. The intrigues of royalty fascinates me, and besides, all the princesses always have the nicest, jewel-encrusted dresses!

I haven't done a big contest in a while, so it's time for another extravaganza - for every fifty entries I receive, another book will be added to the lot. There will be multiple winners in a random drawing, and each winner gets to pick one item from the following:

1. The Last Queen by C. W. Gortner
2. The Heretic Queen by Michelle Moran
3. The Tsarina's Daughter by Carolly Erickson
4. The Other Queen by Philippa Gregory
5. Helen of Troy by Margaret George (added 10/20/08 after receiving 50 entries!)
6. A Constant Heart by Siri Mitchell (added 10/23/08 after receiving 100 entrie!)
7. ...find out after 150 people enter!

The contest will run until November 15th, 2008."

There are multiple ways to enter and the contest is open internationally.

2. Trish at Hey Lady! Whatcha Readin'? is giving away a copy of The Likeness by Tana French. You can read her review and enter the contest by clicking here. Trish states, "Let’s just cut to the chase, shall we? THIS IS THE BEST BOOK I’VE READ THIS YEAR." That's enough of a recommendation for me.

3. Julie at Booking Mama has two more giveaways. One is a copy of The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent. This giveaway is in connection with a Blog Talk Radio show on October 29 with the author. Read more about the show and enter the contest here. Open until October 29.

Second, Julie is giving away two signed copies of The Heretic Queen by Michelle Moran. Click here to enter. This one is open until November 14.
