You know what else I'll be doing on March 2nd...picking someone to send my uber precious arc of the highly anticipated and amazing LINGER, by Maggie Stiefvater, the sequel to the AMAZING SHIVER.
Isn't it pretty???? What's inside is even better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok time to win!
Those of you who have entered my contests before know I do things a little untraditionally...
For those of you who are new, here's the drill!
Become a follower--trust me, it makes you cool! Leave a comment below and tell me what your favorite Maggie Stiefvater scene is (this can be from Shiver, Ballad or Lament). And if you haven't read any Maggie...go get on that!
Want more votes? Bring a friend over to my blog and make sure they tell me you sent them and I'll give you an extra vote! For every friend you send, your name gets entered again. AND if your referral makes a referral than you get more chances from that too because I grandfather in the votes. So please get creative and tweet, blog, facebook, beg, bribe...ummm just figure out a way to get more friends over here so you have more chances to win, ok? :-)
And..now I'll show you how this works in case what I just said makes no sense.
So Alice Cullen follows my blog and she sees that I'm giving away an arc of Linger and she wants it because she really needs to know what happens next with Grace and Sam. She'd totally use her psychic powers to see how it ends, but the wolves in the story are blocking her power So she enters my contest by commenting below, "My favorite Maggie Steifvater scene is in Ballad when Nuala shows up because she has really awesome short hair, like me"
1 entry is awarded to Alice!
But Alice isn't satisfied with 1 entry. She doesn't see herself winning that way, she wants more. So....she calls, Edward.
Edward: She's vegan actually, and she's a real vegetarian. We're not. That's just a joke between us, Alice.
Alice: Edward, I can translate Japanese, I know what a real vegetarian is! Anyway, you need to follow her blog and tell her I sent you, because then I can win an arc of Linger!
Edward: But that book is about wolves! There's even a wolf named Sam! (Epic growl)
Edward: Fine...hang on...oh yeah I love this blog! I'm going to follow, though it may cause me pain...
Alice: YAY!
So now 1 entry is awarded to Edward and 2 entries go to Alice. But Edward wants more...
Edward: Bella, listen, if it doesn't vex you too greatly, I'd be most honored if you could--
Bella: Kiss me!
Edward: Hang on, I'm trying to tell you something. I'm trying to enter a contest and if you enter too I can get more entries.
Bella: If I follow Frankie's blog will you kiss me?
Edward: If you tell Frankie I sent you, and I'm well fed and not too excited, then yes.
Bella: Can we do it if we win the contest?
Edward: Not until we're married.
Bella: Fine...ooooh this book is about werewolves. Yay! I'm going to follow Frankie's blog. And her name will be so much easier to remember then Jessica's.
Edward:...
So Bella has 1 entry, Edward has 2, and now Alice has 3!
Hmmmmm you know what....because I love my followers so much--you all are so cool--if you're an old follower, I'll give an extra entry! Wheeee!
Alright now enter away. Contest ends at 11:59PM on March 2nd (My Birthday!). Good Luck!!




I'm so sad. Happy for you, obviously, but because I've never read any of her books, I can't enter to win the sequel to the book I haven't read. :(

OMG, forgot to write my favorite Maggie scene. Sory! I've read all her book, but Shiver is my fave.
ReplyDeleteFavorite scene: Candy shop scene with Sam and Grace
*dies*
Love it!
<3,
Lena
My favourite scene is when Sam and Grace go to the bookstore that Sam used to work at.
ReplyDeletejosiebakebooks[at]gmail[dot]com
Okay, i'm now following you & i retweeted the contest:)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Maggie scene is actually the closing scene of Shiver when Grace turns around to, SURPRISE...Sam as a human. I cried.
My fav scene is when Sam leaves the note for Grace that has the Rilke poem on it and says "I wish I had written this for you"
ReplyDeletelove it.
Monica

WANT!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you're willing to part with it--you're the best. I'm the most unlucky person on the planet, so I'm not planning on winning, but it doesn't hurt to try.
So, my favorite Linger scene is the bathtub scene, just because that is some seriously amazing writing. (kinda makes me want to throw rocks at my own draft). And...um...I'm pretty sure I've already sent all my followers your way--given my blog war with you, but if I can scrounge up any I will try!
Great contest! :) I'm dying to get my hands on Linger.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite scene is the very last in Shiver when Sam comes out of the woods. SaWOON!
Thanks!

I'm a follower and I will tweet! my fav scene is the candy shop with the bookstore close behind!
ReplyDeleteHi! New follower here! Hard to choose a favourite scene - I was going to pick the candy store scene but another commenter reminded me how much I cried at the final bit of shiver!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite scene from Shiver is the very end. I'm sure Grace thought she would never be with Sam as a human and when she saw him, I stopped breathing! I literary had to go back and re-read that scene over and over again because it was just beautiful! Can't wait to read Linger!
ReplyDeleteI'm an old follower. That is, I was already a follower, but of I'm not old. LoL!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite scene is the very last one in Shiver.
"Say something."
"Sam!"
Squee!
New follower here.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the scene in Shiver where Sam and Grace are in the bookstore
hehehe, I love that Alice, Edward, and Bella are all following your blog :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to win a copy of the Linger ARC!!!!
My favorite scene is the bathtub scene in Shiver when Grace is trying to warm Sam up. So well written.
Congratulations on finishing this part of the process.
ReplyDeleteI am a follower and my favorite Maggie scene is when Sam takes Grace into the middle of the woods and she really see them for the first time.
Wow! That is so cool that you have that and are willing to part with it. You're a doll.
ReplyDeleteLet's see - My favorite scene is from Shiver, it's when Grace and Sam are in the book store and she's on the loveseat and he kisses her. It's such a touching scene.
Going to tweet ya right now! Will post about it too ;o) BTW - your Twilight version of the contest rules is priceless :o)
Scene: Candy shop from Shiver.. :)

You rocked my socks chickadee with that dialogue. Hmmm...who shall I send over, cause it seems all the cool ppl are already followers. I will hopefully hunt someone down!
ReplyDeleteNext...favorite scene. OMG has to be the scene with Sam when he is working in the book store and spots Grace for the first time human. How Stiefvater describes the taste of summer just blew me away.(Shiver)
I am putting the win grisgris on this because my most precious book possession is my signed ARC of Shiver...soooo a Linger ARC would just complete my collection and then I could die a very happy Maggie fangirl.

ReplyDeleteMy fav scene is in Lament, the ice cream shop where James comes in, scoop in hand waving it like a samurai and he's wearing a t-shirt that says "get off my planet" I LOVE that scene.

Though it was a close tie when I read Beautiful Creatures..... enough favorite scene!!! Where do I start....
ReplyDeletepg 64

My favorite scene is from Shiver where Grace uses what small amount of werewolf she possesses to get Sam to change back into a human for a few seconds before injecting him and he changes back into a wolf.
O and forgot sandyg02 sent me forgot that in my original comment
ReplyDeleteO....M....G! Sign me up! I'm a follower. My favorite scene was the ending. It was so sweet and totally romantic. Monica sent me. I tweeted about it.
ReplyDeletekghobbs@gmail.com
Uhm, awesome prize.
ReplyDeleteI loved the ending of Shiver, so I'm looking forward to Linger because I'm hoping it will capture a lot of what I saw at the end of Shiver. You were right, it has kind of stuck with me. My favorite scene is definitely the end, because I wasn't really sure if Sam was real or not and then he's there (I listened to it on CD, and hearing his voice was a very cool effect) and it's really just amazing.
Awesome contest! I'm so anxious to read Linger. I loved Shiver.
ReplyDeleteWhile the candy shop scene is vivid and absolutely astounding, I think I really like the opening of the book and the way the same scene is told through both Sam and Grace.

I'm a new follower. Heather from See Heather Write referred me and I've enjoyed checking out your blog.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite scene from Shiver has to be the scene with Sam and Grace's first kiss. I love Stiefvater's descriptions - I felt like I was right there and it was happening to me.
AAHHHHHHHHHH! Want to read Linger!
ReplyDeleteAlso, loves your illustration of the contest. Very nice dialogue. Especially love the Bella and Edward scene.
Okay, my favorite scene in Shiver, because I haven't had a chance to read Lament and Ballad yet, was, oh gosh, there are sooo many!!!! However, I will be completely honest and say that my favorite part is when they make love. I adore how much love they have between them and I think that makes it such a beautiful and passionate scene.
I am a new follower and AmyAnneS sent me to enter!
ReplyDeleteFav scene in Shiver...there are two. The candy store scene with the chocolate and the warmth....sigh.
The other is the very last scene where Sam comes out of the woods and she says, "Sam." I cried and was angry that I couldn't find out what happened next.
I am twittering this contest as part of L8BloomerOnline
Hey Sister! You know I haven't read those books yet... next on my list is your book... so i hope you understand why I will not be entering this contest =)
ReplyDeleteKeep up all the hard work!!
Also nice lesson on how to enter using Twilight characters!
I'm now a follower and my favorite scene is when Grace gets ticked off at Sam for thinking she made love with him out of pity, not love. It was handled well.
ReplyDeleteThere should be a warning about spoilers in the comments.... I have not finished Shiver yet and now well I at least know to look forward to something that WILL be my favorite scene. lol
ReplyDeletePlease enter me though! I love Maggie's writing!

Hello! I am a new follower. Erica Chapman sent me the link to follow you. I loved Shiver.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite scene is when Sam is working in the bookstore and Grace is there with her friends. The moment Grace looks at Sam and realized she had seen those eyes before. Obviously Sam knew who she was. I kinda gave me shivers!

ReplyDeleteOkay- one of my favorite scenes (there are many) is from Ballad when Sullivan calls up James from class because he overslept. I think James is such a character! I love him and his comments!
Oh gosh! My fav Maggie Scene. I really like the scene in the bookstore, when Sam is watching Grace, but she doesn't know she is the wolf yet...

"if I'm well fed and not too excited" hahahahahahahahaha! You are brilliant.
ReplyDeleteI'm a follower of old, and one of my fav scenes is in BALLAD when kick-ass Nuala sneaks into James' dorm and bed, placing his arm with its iron band around her so he protects her.
'Tis most cool of you to hold this contest.
Oooh! I want it! And I haven't even gotten my hands on Shiver yet. Bad Karen. (It is on my to-read list, though...I have this thing about waiting until multiple books in series are out because then I don't have to be as patient once I fall in love with the characters.)
ReplyDeleteI'm already a follower.
Oooh Linger! Kat wants so bad!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite scene is in Shiver when Grace lies to the nurse to get Sam out of the hospital. It's the first time they meet (as humans) and you can already tell they have a strong connection. I love it!
Of course I am an older follower, so yay for that!
Also, when are we going to get another installment of the The Real Writers? I'm dying here not knowing what's going to happen!
I haven't actually read any of the books yet. Not because I haven't wanted to, I just haven't had time. Sorry!

Woohoo! I'm IN ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh woops --forgot my fave scene!
ReplyDeleteSPOILER ALERT
Shiver at the very end when Sam breathes out and Grace finally notices him... Her reaction, as described by Sam... Oh man. *DIES* LOVE IT.
Hey there, new follower here but this blog almost made me fall out of my chair laughing so I look forward to future blogs :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite scene from Shiver is when Grace tells the candy shop girl that "it was love at first sight" and describes the look on Sam's face when he hears her say that. I'd love to win the ARC! Have a great day!

Llehn sent me over. (Points for her :D :D)
ReplyDeleteMy fav scene in SHIVER is the second book store scene. When Sam gets the poetry book and Grace waits on the couch.
My fav scene in LAMENT is basically all the kissing scenes. >:D
My fav scene in BALLAD is when Nuala finds the music notes on James's arm. V. sexy!
Favorite scene is when Sam and Grace are hanging out. When he's in human form and they can be together.

My favorite scene in LINGER, are you mad?!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I love when Sam and Grace visit the candy store in Duluth and he teaches her how to fully experience all the shop has to offer. It was so vivid.
Also, the times they spend lingering at Grace's house, they feel so real to me. Their bodies intertwined and Sam reading, Grace daydreaming

ReplyDeleteI can't pick an overall favorite part YET, since I'm in the middle of Shiver and it's the first book I've read by Maggie Stiefvater. But I like the part where Grace says that Sam smells the same as when he's a wolf. Or....Did she say his eyes? >_< Well, I like the parts about smell, I just think it's cool.

My favorite scene was when Grace turns around at the end and Sam was standing there. I was so happy.

ReplyDeleteGreat contest. ; )
My favorite scene is the end. No wait, it's when Grace burrows her hands in Sam's fur. Or, the dashboard kiss. Or... Do I really have to choose? :) I loved it all!
ReplyDeleteAnd - Ninja Fanpire sent me over!
Ahhh! Linger! People getting their hands on all these amazing ARC's lately have me absolutely drooling in envy. (Spirit Bound and Linger in particular!).

ReplyDeleteMy favourite scene, as I am yet to find Ballad or Lament in NZ bookstores, is in Shiver and it's the end scene in which we discover all is not lost and a certain someone is standing there- which I won't say for fear of spoilers to those who may have not read yet, as well as the candy shop scene. That scene totally rocks everyone's socks, it appears :) I also agree with Monica when she says 'when Sam leaves the note for Grace that has the Rilke poem on it and says "I wish I had written this for you"'- How are we supposed to choose?! So many absolute 'awh' scenes. I think we all may need a Sam. Can that be your next contest? :D

ReplyDeleteThis excites me.
I'm an old follower.
My favorite Maggie scene (I've read both Lament and Shiver so far) is probably...when Grace reunites with
Sam at the end. So. Pretty.

ReplyDeleteGah! I put the wrong friend referral. I think I need more sleep!
ReplyDelete- - - Hi! Old follower, and Jessica Secret sent me! I
I love any scene with James... Ballad p. 121, with Dee, on the balcony, *kills me*.
When I read Shiver again (soon) I will end up with a heckuva lot of tape flags marking favorite scenes.
YEAH!!!!I'M SOOO EXCITED!!!!Um...let's see...I think my favorite part is when Sam and Grace are in the candy shop. Oh and Jessica Secret sent me!
ReplyDeleteThat scene was awesome! Thanks for the entertainment!! Haha!
ReplyDeleteWithout spoiling it, my favorite scene of Shiver was the last. I was tearing through the last pages to come to an ending that I wished I had been able to immediately go out and get the next book!
I <3 Maggie!
I haven't read the first yet, so I'm not entering. However, I just had to tell you that the explanation via Twilight was hilarious. Thanks for that. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm Maggie's crit partner, so I've already read LINGER, but this was so hilarious and awesome I am totally following you now, too.
ReplyDelete:D

Jessica Secret sent meeeeeee! =)
ReplyDeleteOK, so I'm now a follower, time for my favorite scene. My favorite scene would have to be the candy shop scene from Shiver between Sam and Grace, it was amazing! ^_^
Hi! I am a new vegan follower:) cuz Jessica Secret told me to come on over so I could be cool too!! Great Blog!
ReplyDeleteHmm...Can I say any scene with Sam was my favorite scene? No? Okay, how about when he's reading Rilke to Grace. Lovely.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite scene is from Lament.
ReplyDeleteWhen Luke and Dierdre are walking out of the Sticky Pig. Dierdre catches Luke off guard and kisses him.
"Caught of guard, Luke took a moment before he wrapped his arms around me and kissed back, his fingers crumpling my shirt. There was something honest and raw in our kisses; a gasp of fear or impending loss that we couldn't or wouldn't acknowledge in conscious thought. He held me tightly, lifting me off my feet and sitting me on the hood of the car so I wouldn't have to stand on my tiptoes to reach him, and I tasted the skin of his neck and his face and his lips until I had no more breath, and then linked my legs around him and kissed him some more." pages 224-225
I love all of Maggie's books and make sure to recommend them to everyone I know.
Thanks,
Cari

Happy Valentine's Day and happy almost birthday!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great offer. I haven't read Maggie's books yet but I just got Shiver from the library.
I'm a new follower and I followed a link to your contest from The Book Junkie.
Well, Edward, Bella and Alice sent me, even though they don't need and extra votes because they probably have a trillion already.
ReplyDeleteFavorite Maggie scene is in Lament when Dee finds out what Luke really is and she goes off on him...because, really, that's what you would do if you found out your boyfriend was a soulless fairy assassin, you know?

Thanks for such an awesome contest! I just became a follower after following the link from The First Novels Club where I'm already a follower.
ReplyDeleteI've read all of Maggie's novels, and my favorite scene is in LAMENT where Dee and Luke are eating at The Sticky Pig. She's thinking to herself about how their relationship would evolve if they were a normal couple - going to the state park, losing her virginity under the cover of fall leaves, etc. - but she realizes that none of that will ever happen.
awesome contest! I was sent over by Ellz blog and now I am following your blog too. :) Please enter me to win. Thanks!

My favorite scene is from Shiver when Sam and Grace go to the Candy Store.
ReplyDeleteNew follower here! I got referred by Cari, aka mariacarisoto@gmail.com.
ReplyDeleteMy fave scene is from Shiver, at the very end when you find out that Sam is in fact now human again. I srsly gasped out loud.
Thanks so much for this contest! ;)
I haven't read any of her books yet. I have Shiver on my bookshelf waiting for me, and I'm so confident that I'm going to love it that I'd love the chance to win this one, too!

justeena_25(at)yahoo(dot)ca
very cool blog. new follower. just in time for a chance at Linger!
ReplyDeletefav scene in Shiver is in Grace's bedroom and Sam starts out on the floor, then moves to the bed.
That was the funniest explanation for how to enter a contest that I've ever read... I was cracking up! :-)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite scene was when Sam and Grace went to the bookstore together and he offered to buy her a book... can we all have a Sam?
Thanks for the great contest--I'm so excited about this sequel. I'm a new follower.

My favourite scene is the one that happens in Shiver with Sam and Grace in a bookstore.
ReplyDeleteI was referred by Monica.

I'm so excited for this contest!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Maggie Steifvater scene is in Shiver at the end when Sam comes out of the forest. I absolutely loved that part, and I did cry. Can't wait to read Linger!
Finished Shiver.... I can now agree with favorite scene(s) last one and the candy store.... Oh how I MUST read Linger *crossesfingersgrinsandbegswitheyelashfluttersandpoutylips*
ReplyDeleteOK, so my last post went wacky. This is attempt #2.
ReplyDeleteSo hard to pick a favorite scene out of three fantastic books. It was hard to decide, b/c I love James so much, but then Sam and Grace just broke my heart. So I guess I have to go with the very last scene in Shiver. When he walks out of the woods and she's there & it's him, alive....oh the things to come!
BTW, new follower here, found you on twitter :)
Oh!I lov Shiver. I's love to win an ARC of Linger. So, my fave scene?
ReplyDeleteIt's either when Sam bought Grace a book, or at the end, when Grace went out, and Sam's there, and he's human! ;D

Oh I forgot the most important part!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite Maggie S. scene is the end of Shiver
SPOILER alert: When Sam and Grace are standing face to face :))
I'd love to win this! booksobsession(at)gmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI'm already a follower.
My favorite scene in Shiver is when Sam first becomes a human, and shows up at Grace's back door! :)
Okay, I just became a follower but I haven't read any of her books. So it would be impossible to give you a favorite scene without cheating and I won't do that. So if I'm not eligible for the giveaway I understand. I would like to read her book though.
