Free Gift for Pre-Orders of All the Summer Girls

Please check out my blog www.megdonohue.com/blog for details on this fun giveaway!

If you let me know that you pre-ordered All the Summer Girls, I'll enter you in the Beach Bag Giveaway, which includes:

*The Lilly Pulitzer Docksider Tote, stocked with goodies the protagonists of All the Summer Girls would take to the beach:
*Dani is an aspiring writer and avid reader, so the bag contains a signed copy of All the Summer Girls as well as three of my favorite, just-published summer reads, The Love Wars by Allison Heller, The Best of Us by Sarah Pekkanen, and The Smart One by Jennifer Close.
*Kate is a lawyer with a secret and a sweet tooth. She'd never go to the beach without a snack, so the bag contains a box of Jersey Shore salt water taffy.
*Vanessa, an art dealer turned stay-at-home mom, is always glamorous, so the bag contains Nars lipstick in a bright, summery shade of pink.
*A $100 donation made in the contest winner's name to the Hurricane Sandy New Jersey Relief Fund, a non-profit dedicated to helping New Jersey rebuild.
*Fine print: One entry per purchase (the more copies you buy, the better your odds!**). The winner of the giveaway must have a US address for delivery. Contest runs from May 1 - May 21, 2013.

Please let me know if you pre-order the book and I'll send you my favorite summer cocktail recipe and summer party playlist! hellomegdonohue AT gmail.com
