This is a two-parter.
I know you love the title of this contest. Who doesn't? So here's the scoop. The holidays are awesome and what-not. It's been a long time since I did one of these mega-giveaways, and this is the right time of year for it. This will run from now until Dec 15. Why? Because it's a random date in the holiday season, kinda smack in the middle of everything, regardless of how you celebrate your happy days or what you call them.
Let's get down to the the nitty gritty.
Part One: Thunderdome
First, I'm offering a chance for Jax fans to go head to head with Deuce fans. That's right; I went there. Who do you love? It's time for some girl on girl action, a regular cat fight! Right now, Grimspace has 88 reviews on Amazon. Enclave has 182. If you can get Team Jax to 100 or Team Deuce to 200 before December 15, a random commenter from the winning faction will receive … the ebook reader of his/her choice. For real. 
I'll also have a custom T-shirt printed up that reads DEUCE ROCKS or JAX RULES, depending on which faction wins. If BOTH factions reach goal by Dec 15? Then I guess I have no choice but to give out two e-readers, one to each faction, and two winning T-shirts. Feel free to trash-talk each other in the comments. Yeah, girl fight is gonna get ugly. There's gonna be hand-slapping and hair pulling… ehm. Anyhow.
The rules are simple. If you already posted a review for one of these books, that's one entry. If you posted for both, well, you're a bi-factional reader (and I adore you and think you're cute), plus you get TWO entries. Obviously I don't mind if you're bi-factional, and it increases your chances to win. Likewise, reviewing one or both books nets you one or two entries after the contest starts, for a total of two. DO NOT create dummy accounts to post fake reviews. If you rally people in support of your faction, that's fine, but don't spam people's Facebook walls or inboxes, please. Reviews should be honest. Post a comment telling me which book you reviewed (or both) and what your username is on Amazon. That's all to enter! Oh, and mark your total entries for me.
+1 if you tweet about the Big Honking Holiday Contest
+1 if you put it on your Facebook wall (but don't put it on other people's, please!) So final tally could be, like so:
Reviewed Enclave & Grimspace. Username: Imtoosexyformypants. 2 entries. Tweeted for +1, Facebook for +1. Total of 4 entries.
And that's it for part one. Which brings us to…

Damn, that's a lot of loot.
Here's what you need to do for part two. Answer the following question in comments: What's your favorite holiday memory? (Yes, it can be any holiday. Feel free to wow us with Arbor Day awesomeness.)
Yes, you can enter both contests, but the part one entries should be posted in a separate comment from the part two. Part two will have multiple winners, obviously. Part one, a single winner gets the e-reader. Unless both make goal. In which case, TWO big winners. ZOMG, it's too much excitement.
Yes, you can use the +1 for contests tweets and +1 Facebook wall posts. The same NO SPAMMING rule applies. Tell people about the Big Honking Holiday Contest but don't annoy them.
Sample entry for part two:
My favorite holiday memory is when Uncle Albert drank all my mom's cooking sherry and set his toupee on fire. I tweeted & facebooked the contest. Total of 3 entries.
Got it? Now get ready to win some swag!
