Book Giveaway: Wool

Since July 2010, TNBBC has been bringing authors and readers together every month to get behind the book! This unique experience wouldn't be possible without the generous donations of the authors and publishers involved.  


I'm excited to be partnering with Hugh Howey 
to bring you next month's Author/Reader Discussion Book!


We will be reading and discussing
Wool and Wool Omnibus with Hugh!


In order to stimulate discussion, 
Hugh Howey has agreed to an INTERNATIONAL give away of 10 copies of either: 

A signed copy of Wool 

-----or-----
 
The eBook version of Wool Omnibus (Wool 1 - 5)


Winners choose which option they prefer!



Here is the Goodreads description:

 This is the story of mankind clawing for survival, of mankind on the edge. The world outside has grown unkind, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are given the very thing they profess to want: They are allowed outside.



This giveaway will run through December 8th. 
Winners will be announced here and via email on December 9th.

Here's how to enter:

1 - Leave a comment stating which you format you prefer - a signed copy of Wool to be mailed to you, or an eBook version of Wool Omnibus (Wool 1 -5) to be sent to you electronically. 

2 - State that you agree to participate in the group read book discussion that will run from January 15th through the end of the month . Hugh Howey has agreed to participate in the discussion and will be available to answer any questions you may have for him. 

 *If you are chosen as a winner, by accepting the copy you are agreeing to read the book and join the group discussion at TNBBC on Goodreads (the thread for the discussion will be emailed to you before the discussion begins). 

 3 - Your comment must have a way to contact you (email is preferred). 


Good luck!!

  37. OK, so i tried random.org and realized that it's not random enough to pull 10 numbers in a row. So I did this my usual way.. throw your email addresses into a hat and yank out the first 10 my fingers touch. Can't get any more random than that!!

    Thanks to everyone who entered. If you're name is not listed below as a winner, I do hope you still pop into the discussion that will take place next month - January 15th-30th - and help make Hugh Howey feel welcome.

    And now... congrats to the winners:

  38. I have recently scheduled in time for reading.. I used to read two books a month when I was a stay at home mom but now working 40+ hours and three kids doesn't give me much time. I wish I had a book club so I went back on to goodreads and started up again. I would love to participate in the discussions and the bonus would be getting a hard copy would be FABULOUS.

  41. Ted, maybe you didnt notice that this giveaway ended over a month ago? Also, the new S&S book was not a giveaway option. But I appreciate the comment, and interest.
