UPDATE!
Welp, I made it past 250 follower thanks to you all! As promised, I am upping the prize and the contest has turned into a 300 Follower Giveaway. Here is what I have decided to add:
'Dat's right....a hardback copy of Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare. If you haven't heard of the this book or Cassie's Mortal Instrument series...get out from under your rock and enter to win this book! ;) If I reach 300 followers....the winner will receive Matched and Clockwork Angel. Ohhhh, ahhhhh.
PS, for those of you that want an extra point - you need to comment who your "match" would be on this blog post. Not just on the form. If you already entered and didn't do this...do it now, and I will make it count. I love hearing your answers!
Now.....get to it!
******************
Awe, sounds precious doesn't it - just 250 followers? To me, that's fantastic! I started this blog for school and since August, I have been able to use I READ BANNED BOOKS for me and my little book addiction. So here we are, almost at 250.
Here is what I have up for grabs when I hit 250:
My coveted ARC of MATCHED by Ally Condie - out November 30th. I read this book and was instantly hooked! Here is a little of my review:
"Personally, I rank this book up there with other wildly popular
dystopian YA novels - The Giver, The Hunger Games, The Uglies, etc...
It really is that good and one of my favorite books of the year. "
If I get to 300 while the contest is still going on...I'll add something extra. Something good (book, signed swag, etc..), maybe even put it up for a vote. If I get more than 300 follower...you can pick me up off the floor!

ReplyDeleteI'd hope to be matched with Edward Cullen, Patch Cipriano, Luc Cain, Ren Laroche, and Ash :) Ooh soo many! I want them all ♥
ReplyDeleteThanks for the awesome giveaway! Good luck with making it to 250!
Congrats on the followers :D
ReplyDeleteI'd love to be 'matched' with Jace from the Mortal Instruments. ;) lol
Thanks for the chance to win Matched, it sounds like a fantastic book :D
Good luck and thanks for the giveaway! I'd love to be matched with Daniel from Fallen.
ReplyDelete-Danna
Thanks for the giveaway! I'd probably be matched with Daniel from the Uglies series.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway! I would love to be matched with either Jace or Patch. But I think Jace will be too much for me to handle (in every way possible...lol) so I'll go with Patch. :)
ReplyDelete-Len of Musings of a Reader Happy
I'd love to be 'matched' with Clayton Danvers <3 (Women of the Otherworld)
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway! I've been dying to get a copy of Matched but I guess I have to wait until it releases, or if I win this contest... *crosses fingers*
ReplyDeleteI'd love to be matched to Alex from L.A. Weatherly's Angel!
Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThis is a tough question so I'll answer it a few ways...
Ultimately I'd like to be matched with my husband because we are perfect together and I couldn't imagine loving anyone the way I love him.
Literary Guy- Going go with either Edward Cullen or Ren from Nightshade.
Actor- Craig Horner!
Ohhh... matched with who? Ummm. That's a hard one. But probably Peeta. Well, if you've read Mockingjay, not the Peeta in the middle of the book. ;o)
ReplyDeleteI'd like to be matched with Eric Bana=)
ReplyDeletek_anon[at]hotmail[dot]co[dot]uk
I would want to be matched with either Jace from TMI series (I do love a bad boy) or Mackie Doyle from The Replacement. Huge crush right now.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be matched with either Johnny Depp or Damon Salvatore.
ReplyDeleteI would like to be matched up to Peeta from The Hunger Games.
ReplyDeleteI'm already excellently matched to my husband. So that's what it would be. Unrealistically though....Edward for the win.
ReplyDeleteIdeally, I'd like to be Matched with someone who is nice, funny, and just a little bit sarcastic.
ReplyDeleteBut since we have to pick a person or character... I'd pick Joseph Gordon-Levitt for the looks, or Jace from TMI for the attitude.
Hmmm, tough question! Truthfully, I'm matched to my significant other and wouldn't change a thing... But if we're talking fictional world, I'll go with;
ReplyDeleteCharacter wise, from the Vampire Diaries TV show (as I've not read the books) I like Damon Salvatore. Yes, he's a bit of a bastard, but he's not all bad.
Book wise, I think I'll have a handful of Kresley Cole's leading male characters - Ok ok, I just can't choose!
Visually - Henry Cavill. Mmmm.
Match me up with Brad Pitt? Looks and a heart. ;) Eric Northman? Yea... that sounds good too. :)
ReplyDeleteI'd like to be matched with Jace Wayland from the Mortal Instruments! :)
ReplyDeleteI'd like to be matched with Jace, too:D Haha he's just stunning! Other choices would be Sam Roth, Will Herondale...:)
ReplyDeleteFrom a book ~ Edward Cullen or Mr. Darcy!
ReplyDeleteFrom tv ~ Damon Salvatore
Jay Heaton from the Body Finder. <33 He's surpassed even Edward on my crush-scale. :)
ReplyDeleteOooor mmm, Denny Duquette from Grey's Anatomy.
I would love to be matched with Damon Savatore. Love a good bad guy. or Jasper Hale... Simon from the Mortal instruments.... so many choices!! :) What a tough question!
ReplyDeletei just finished reading the book thief, so id have to choose rudy steiner. there's just something about him, i dont know. but itd definitely be him!
ReplyDeleteoh, and i just realized im the 250th follower! :D
Hey, thank you for the giveaway:)
ReplyDeleteMy current obsession is Ben Barnes (as I'm reading Vampire Academy and he is my Dimitri) So I guess he is who I'd like to be matched with :)
Congrats to 250 followers! (I'm follower no.251,yay!)
I'd want to be matched with Jace Wayland, Will Herondale, Peeta Mellark, Patch Cipriano, Sam Roth, and Damon Salvatore. :">
