1,000,000 Page Views Celebration!



After a little more than 3 years blogging, I'm very excited to announce that StuckInBooks has gone over 1,000,000 page views!




I'm going to celebrate in the best possible way!

GIVEAWAYS

I have been collecting SIGNED copies of books to use as part of this celebration.  Some I have bought and some have been kindly donated by the author.  Each day, I will feature a book and offer a giveaway for it.  Wanta see what I've got?  See anything you'd like to win?


Keeping partying!


Today I have a signed copy of this!

Your mother hollers that you’re going to miss the bus. She can see it coming down the street. You don’t stop and hug her and tell her you love her. You don’t thank her for being a good, kind, patient mother. Of course not—you launch yourself down the stairs and make a run for the corner.Only, if it’s the last time you’ll ever see your mother, you sort of start to wish you’d stopped and did those things. Maybe even missed the bus.But the bus was barreling down our street, so I ran.Fourteen kids. One superstore. A million things that go wrong.

In Emmy Laybourne’s action-packed debut novel, six high school kids (some popular, some not), two eighth graders (one a tech genius), and six little kids trapped together in a chain superstore build a refuge for themselves inside. While outside, a series of escalating disasters, beginning with a monster hailstorm and ending with a chemical weapons spill, seems to be tearing the world—as they know it—apart.

  2. I love these kind of books, they make me think and they're usually page-turners because there's so much tension around the characters and the situation.
    Thanks for the giveaways, you're amazing! :)

  3. Do you know if they changed the cover for this? I remember seeing it a little while ago with a different one. I'm just curious - wondering if my mind is finally going.

    1. There are a couple versions of the cover on Goodreads. I picked the one that looks like the book I have to give away. The only difference is my says it includes a bonus novella.

  10. I love them. They take you out of what is the norm and bring you into worlds that may happen one day down the road. It's always fun and exciting to read dystopian and I do it more all the time.

  28. I don't know, it's weird, but I kind of revel in them. They sound exciting and hair-raising and I always wonder what I'd do in those situations.

    On the other hand, I'm afraid of them coming true.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

  43. I love end of world stories, but they have to be done right. Monument 14 trilogy is one of the rare ones that do it right, so would love to add a signed copy to my collection! :-) thanks!!!

    ReplyDelete

  50. End of the world stories used to freak me out . . . but I guess I'm used to them now. The more creative the disaster is the more I'm interested.
    Trying to sign up at the last minute, lol.
