This Monday = FIVE WEEKS TILL THE NEAR WITCH.
And that means a GIVEAWAY.
In case you’re just joining me, I’m counting down the weeks until my debut, THE NEAR WITCH, with a series of Monday giveaways. Because giveaways make Mondays suck less. And because they help distract me both from real work and from the number of days left until my release.
TODAY’S THEME:
The Beautiful and Haunting.
I’ve read three books in recent months that earn this label, that have not only transported me while reading, but clung to me long after I’ve put them down. I gave these clues on Twitter: One book stole my heart. One book gave me chills. One book dragged me under.
These three books, as well as some swag, compose Week 5’s prize.
THE PRIZE:
STOLEN by Lucy Christopher (signed bookplate)
IMAGINARY GIRLS by Nova Ren Suma
BETWEEN SHADES OF GRAY by Ruta Sepetys (signed)
THE WINNERS:
ONE person will win these fabulous books as well as the swag seen with them.
Also, ONE person will win a batch of chocolate cake cookies (because who doesn’t like cookies?).
THE RULES:
1. Fill out the form below.
2. Spread the word! And eat a cookie.
3. Leave a comment if you want. They make me smile.
Things you should know:
*IF you want more entries (up to 10 for Twitter) you can complete the form again as needed, only filling out name/email and checking the right box).
*You can find the NW widget HERE.
*I like you.
*Giveaway runs from 9AM CST on Monday until 9AM CST on Tuesday and is open to North America and Europe.
Woot! Only five weeks left 😀 Thanks for the awesome giveaway. ❤
Love, Carina
Hi Victoria!
Thank you for the opportunity to win.
All the best,
RKCharron

Wow. Books AND cookies? You must be getting excited! Of course, I am. I read the beginning of NW galley but got super busy at work, so I couldn’t finish it before time ran out. I’ve been really excited about it for a while, though. Can’t wait!
I can’t wait to read the Near Witch! Congratulations Victoria!
Seriously, you’re contests are made of awesome and sprinkles 😀
What a great giveaway to start the week!
Thanks for the Giveaway!!!! Can’t wait to read The Near Witch!

Ah! Epic contest! Thanks for the giveaway!! 😀
Oh, I’m in love with the IMAGINARY GIRLS cover, and I have heard the most delightful things about BETWEEN SHADES OF GRAY!
I like you too!! 😀
I follow a few YA book blogs and a couple of people were mentioning your debut novel as well as showing off their Near Witch book marks. So I decided to investigate. Turns out your book is something that’s right up my alley!
A very nice giveaway! Thanks for the chance. 🙂
5 Weeks left! :D:D You do such awesome giveaways 😀
OMG I HAVE BEEN DYING FOR ALL OF THESE. Have I mentioned that you are awesome, Victoria Schwab?

I didn’t check the pre-order box because I am OCD and VERY meticulous on my books!! I always go to the bookstore and make sure there isn’t any bent page, scuffs on the cover, rips/tears, and marks….lol is that too anal? =)
Thanks so much for hosting these giveaway, and YES it really does make mondays more bearable lol…. i filled out the form, but i wanted to place the info. here for verification….
Thanks again!! and I hope your enjoying as much summer sun!! ^_^
