So, yeah. 100 followers. Wow.
I know that there are many, many people with hundreds or thousands of followers. I know that, in the grand scheme of things, 100 isn't so huge of an accomplishment. But to me, it feels huge. I can't even explain how awesome it feels to know that many people are genuinely interested in reading my crazy rambles. Your comments make my day, and so I wanted to thank you all.
Hence, the giveaway.
The first giveaway will have two prizes:
1) A paperback of Jellicoe Road + one book of your choice from the following:
The Last Little Blue Envelope by Maureen Johnson
Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi
All These Things I've Done by Gabrielle Zevin
The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold
Slide by Jill Hathaway
Timeless by Alexandra Monir
Guys, the review isn't up yet, but I stayed up till 2 AM this morning to read Jellicoe Road. I'd recommend that book to anyone and everyone. If I had only one copy, you'd never get me to part from it, but since I happen to have two, I am offering this up to you lovely followers, plus your choice of the books above.
2) A 50-page critique of your YA manuscript.
I'm not a professional by any means. Not an author, not an editor, not an agent. Really, I'm just a girl who likes to write. But I do think, after over a year of practice, I'm fair enough at critiquing; I've been known to leave critiques several thousand words long on one chapter. So, while I am not a professional, I may have something of use to say.
The book giveaway is US only, but the critique, obviously, is not limited. Enter below!

However, that's not it. If my blogger friends at Teenage Fiction reach 100 followers, we will be co-hosting a giveaway! Two books of your choice $15 or under from The Book Depository. So go follow!
Again, thank you all. I appreciate it, more than I can say.
