GIVEAWAY – GIFT VOUCHER FOR YOUR CHRISTMAS WISHLIST
Unless you live under a rock, by now you’ve probably started thinking about Christmas shopping for family and friends…. I know I have. So it got me thinking – who wouldn’t love a gift voucher right now to buy yourself a little present when you’re spending all this time and effort spending on others?
And, what about your Book Wishlist? Have you got yours in order for Christmas yet? I’ve decided it’s time to update mine, and I’m after your help to make sure I put some great titles on my Wishlist this year.
THE GIVEAWAY: I’m offering 1 gift voucher to the value of $25.00AUD from either Fishpond (Australia & New Zealand), Amazon (US) or Amazon (UK, Europe) to a randomly selected winner. Based on exchange rates as at 19 November that’s roughly 23.00USD or 13.50GBP. Exchange rate on date of giveaway close will be used to determine gift voucher value.
To enter simply tell me what books you would purchase with the voucher if you won!
Here are links to what other’s are wishing for near you:
Australia & New Zealand – Fishpond’s Most Desired
United States – Amazon US Gift Ideas for Book Lovers
UK, Europe and international – The Book Depository’s Top Fiction Titles
To be a valid entry you must be or become a follower and provide your email address and book title(s) and author, to help me and other readers check out the books you’re wishing for. Enter by comment or email bookwordlover@gmail.com. Giveaway closes at 5pm (Brisbane, Australia) on 11 December 2009.
You can increase your chances of winning by

Can’t wait to hear what books you are wishing for this Christmas!

Great question & Giveaway! One of my favorite authors is Joyce Carol Oates so I might buy her new book "Little Bird of Heaven" or one of her older novels that I haven't read yet such as "Gravedigger's Daughter". I also would like to buy "Goldengrave" by Francine Prose and there are still a few books by Richard Russo that I haven't read such as "Nobody's Fool" and "Mohawk".
Thank you for this opportunity!

So hard to pick, but if I won, I'd buy "Hunger Games" and "Catching Fire" by Suzanne Collins. I've read them both, but I typically don't buy books, so I'd use the voucher to add two I truly love (and would reread and share) to my shelves.
