Only One Week Until the GBGB!

Don't forget that the Great Book Giveaway Bonanza starts next Monday!  If you've been thinking about signing up, there's still time -- the official page is here

You don't have to give away only books!  Book-related items of any other sort are also welcome.  That would include movie adaptations, book-themed jewelry, etc.

All participants, please note that you need to do the following things:

  • Notify me that you're participating so I link to your blog on the official list!
  • Start your giveaway on June 15
  • Include one of the GBGB buttons in your giveaway post
  • Link back to the official page OR link to all the other participants

It is totally up to you how you want to run your giveaway.  You decide if you're opening it up worldwide or doing US-only (or UK-only, etc.)  You set your end date.  You decide whether you're doing a drawing or just saying these books are up for grabs and the first person who asks for a title gets it, etc.  You decree how people can enter.  

And above all, have fun!

  2. Do you have an end date for it? I'm trying to figure that out for the Rafflecopter thingy.

    1. You set your own end date -- I'm doing mine through the 24th, but you can make it a week, two weeks, whatever suits you. We just all start on the same day :-)

  3. So excited! I've got about five items right now; trying to decide whether or not to add more...

    1. This is the trouble with giveaways. They are addicting, and they grow and grow and grow.

    2. Oh, I know! I grabbed "a few more things" to add and ended up with over ten. I think I'm going to cut it down and save a few items for a future giveaway.

    3. Right now, I am in need of just getting things Out Of My House, so I'm giving away 20 again. I had ten, and then I went through my books again and had 19. And I must confess that this time around, I actually bought a book at the thrift store specifically to give away, only because a blogging friend mentioned she couldn't find it to read, and so I was like, "Oh! For fifty cents! Maybe she'll win it!" Heh.

    4. I did that, too! How funny! My library had their semi-annual book sale last week, and I grabbed a copy of A Room with a View there. Since I decided to go with the classics theme, I just wanted to spread the love on that one.

    5. Hee. I also had several instances of seeing a copy of a book I own, thinking, "This is nicer than the one I have -- I could give the other one away during my next giveaway," and justifying buying a second copy that way.
