Good luck with this round! If worldwide shipping is an option I may play next time. Not that I expect to win but I have books I'm willing to share.

I wanted to have some fun with this, so I made your names all pretty. This is them all printed out and lovely:
. . .
. . .
. . .
and then I cut them out, folded them, and put them in the pretty lemon box
. . .
. . .
. . .
I shook the pretty box, and shook it again. Then I swirled the names around and shook it again. Since I was at Starbucks chatting with a friend I had her pull out a name
And your winner is. . .

Daffodil! Look at you coming in right under the wire and stealing the whole show. :)
Congratulations Daffodil. PM me your address and I'll ship put The Mane Event this week.
Wow, thanks Melinda. Loved the paper, so cute. I'll pm you my address. I'll look through my books tonight and let ya'll know what I've got in the morning. Sorry, still no computer access at home for the time being.
Can anyone tell me the postage difference on a book States v. International? Just to give me a general idea. If there's not an incredible difference, I wouldn't mind opening this up.
Congrats Daffodil! Great timing! :)Melinda: Love the 'high tech' selection process! I;ve been wondering how everyone does it!!
mostly depends on the weight...I think I sent one book to Canada and it was a couple of dollars more - but nothing significant...Daffodil wrote: "Wow, thanks Melinda. Loved the paper, so cute. I'll pm you my address.

@Daffodil: Asia/Australia/NZ might be more of a problem but I don't know the freight costs... Anyone?
Daffodil, Congratulations!!
Postage wise, Canada is usually reasonable. For example, a 7 oz book can get there for about $3.
That's first class since they don't have media mail to any international country. For every ounce, though, the price goes up, and once you get to a pound, you're in priority mail territory which is more expensive; I think it's about $5.00.
Other international, such as the U.K. or Australia is around $7 bucks for the same book. Hope that helps. If you need exact figures, you can look all this up on USPS.com.
Like Melinda, I had to make myself stop. I have a couple shelves of books I've held onto and will probably never reread.Deadline: 11:00 a.m. Central, January 18. I will pull the name on my lunch hour and post that p.m.
Shipping: I'm willing to ship anywhere.

Excellent condition, only read once. Trade size.

Destiny came from the used bookstore and is in a very battered condition, so I'm giving these away as a set. Tempt is brand new and in excellent condition.

put me in for riding temptation!for all you requesting the LJ books (Long Hard Ride) - she is prob one of my favorite authors, but i'm in the holding pattern for her new book
I updated the list in Post #179 to this point. Please double check and make sure I have you down correctly.Photojim, I think you put down the wrong book. Surely a historical fanatic like you would rather read Sleepless in Scotland. LOL
LOL! No I'm trying to branch out into new genres. There are only so many historicals one person can take.

I think he went back and edited his post to not make it look like he was a historical fanatic ;)Daffodil wrote: "I updated the list in Post #179 to this point. Please double check and make sure I have you down correctly.

This is an awesome idea! I have many books on my TBR shelf that are "at the bottom of the list" and I want to give to someone who will love them.Please enter me for Long Hard Ride. I have heard wonderful things about this series!

Just To Tempt the Wolf, I already have Destiny. Thanks!
Hi Daffodil - could you please put me down for the Terry Spear books? In the unlikely event that I win we could work out an alternative if the freight is too much... :)
Hi Dee, I haven't been around much but wanted to let you know I got the book a few days ago. Thanks soo much!!

I agree! Finished the whole series a while ago. Great books!
Valorie wrote: "Drq wrote: "Please can I have Riding Temptation?!?!?!"Riding Temptation was fantastic!!!"
I have Riding Wild which is next after i finish Crave. I've never read Jaci Burton but these books keep popping up so I'm going to give this series a try

I've really enjoyed them. I hope you like them too! Jaci Burton also has a PNR series with demon hunters, which I've really liked also. The first book is Surviving Demon Island.
