Randomly Win A Book YAY!

  • Feb. 27th, 2012 at 11:46 AM
Carrie Now
So, um... you know how I said that if I forgot to blog for a week, then I would randomly give away a copy of one of my books - signed, because I like to sign things....

Well. I forgot.

I have not blogged since Feb. 9 and it is now Feb. 27.

Sigh.

I am a bad, bad blogger person. 

So in good news, School Library Journal has this to say about AFTER OBSESSION, which i co-wrote with Steven Wedel:

"Told in the alternating voices of Aimee (penned by Jones) and Alan (written by Wedel), this tale has it all: an eerie setting, a powerful romance, and a terrifying dark force. In spite of the slightly over-the-top showdown, Jones’s fans will devour this one, which, thanks to Wedel, offers a fresh male perspective.”

And the reviewer didn’t make us boyfriend/girlfriend in real life, which is awesome! YAY SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL! No offense to Steve, but he’s married and has like 87 kids or something.

So, in honor of this review, I am going to give away a free copy of AFTER OBSESSION to two random winners who post below in the comments telling me their current obsession, be it Emma Stone or Nutella or Hamsters on Mopeds... 


Good luck! 
I will close the contest on March 1 at noon, EST, which is my birthday and you do not have to live in the United States to win a copy. 

Also, sorry for the blog failure.

Carrie - how could we not forgive you? You can't single-handedly keep the world safe from pixies AND remember to constantly blog.

My super powers are failing me. I am no longer the Queen of the Multi-Task. It is so sad....

I'm obsessed with the Ranger Apprentice series, it's like medieval times but with actual realpolitik.

My obsession right now is kind of silly. But it's these awesome microfiber cleaning products from Norwex! They pick up EVERYTHING and have silver in them so they kill everything and don't cross contaminate! I'm in love. I know it's strange. ;)

I personally have no place to judge when it comes to blog failure. I've been spotty on my blog for 2 years.

As for my current obsession, that is definitely the BBC series Sherlock.

My current obsession is sticky notes, aka Post-it notes. I have 49 on my desk, 32 on my closet and a random number in the kitchen. Also, I'm obsessed with the translations I have to work on!

My Obsession
My current obsession is Sherlock, the BBC show. I've only seen the first season, and am waiting quite impatiently for the second to air in the US. The show is very cleverly written and Sherlock and Watson are great together! Cannot stop watching it.

You can always forget to blog, i don't mind! Have been trying to catch this woman on your book cover lately but she always manages to float away. Hope i catch her this time ;)
I recently got obsessed with checking my e-mail (i literally can't sleep unless i check it), the anime Guilty Crown and it's music, reading (of course, that's how i know your books which are awesome BTW), Kohl and Aaron Johnson (the sly looking one, like in Chatroom).
Only add me if you can ship to India.

Life is busy and complicated and blogs, well. Blogs get lost in the shuffle! :)

My current obsession is watching all of the UK series, "Being Human." There are three seasons on Netflix and I am plowing through them, marathon style. I am torn between the smoldering, broody-yet-funny vampire Mitchell and the geeky, sweet, yet sometimes ragey werewolf George.

Maybe I won't choose, and just love them both equally.

Excellent contest--thank you! My current obsession is Starbucks blonde roast coffee, which my husband bought for the Keurig I gave him last Christmas and which I am all about this morning. Last week's obsession was Thai and Vietnamese food: I spent two weeks in Las Vegas for work, and there was a restaurant called "Sea" that I ate at two nights in a row. Most perfect crab rangoon ever. Also ate pho for the first time. Not quite as big a fan as I thought I'd be.
