I'm Feelin' 22 Giveaway

I'm not really one to usually be all, "OH, HEY, IT'S MY BIRTHDAY," but--"OH, HEY, IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!"


And while I am most certainly not a big fan of Taylor Swift--I like some of her music, but cannot stand her--she has one song with a title that is quite fitting since I'm feelin' 22 (years old!). And what better way to celebrate than with a giveaway?


I wanted to do something kind of big for my birthday giveaway, and give away something bookish that I love and that you might love, too. SO. One lucky international winner will win this fantastic prize:


If you haven't read this series--oh my gosh, how have you not, seriously?!--or even if you already have, you want these pretty UK editions (including a preorder of Queen of Shadows) on your bookshelves. (I only have the UK Throne of Glass and Crown of Midnight and it's not enough.) I didn't start this wonderful series by reading The Assassin's Blade, but it's a nice set of prequel stories that's definitely worth reading (you might want some tissues). I liked Throne of Glass more so than not, but the second book made me love it. And Crown of Midnight--I seriously cannot even. Then there's Heir of Fire--oh my gosh, I cannot even with it again. I am so excited to read Queen of Shadows that, you guessed it, I cannot even. These books? You need them.

Entering to win these books is actually pretty easy! You just have to do two things: Fill out the Rafflecopter, and follow the rules.

When Rafflecopter randomly picks a winner, I go through the entries to make sure they all follow the rules, and sometimes I have to go through multiple winners to find one who followed all the rules. So please, please follow the rules--then I won't have to pick a new winner if you win! And so, here are the rules, in as much detail as possible.


-This giveaway is international, so long as the Book Depository ships to you for free.
-No cheating whatsoever; cheating entries will be disqualified.
-No shady/suspicous entries; if something about your entries doesn't add up and/or seems shady, you will be disqualified (I check them all).
-No private or giveaway accounts; if I can't find your entry I can't confirm it.
-One entry per person, must be 13 years or older or have your parents' permission, and the winner has 48 hours to respond to an email/tweet or else a new winner will be chosen.

And now, enter away, and the best of luck--I'm jealous of this prize! Happy Birthday from me to you!

    Also, I am super excited for this giveaway. I am a huge Sarah J Maas fan and the only true collection I have is her books and Victoria Schwab's books and the only books I am missing for Sarah are the UK editions! I have ARCs, hardcovers, paperbacks, and different covers of every book Sarah has written EXCEPT for the UK covers, so I am crossing my fingers super tight!

  35. I just finished reading (and loving!) Book 1, and was disappointed when yesterday's library trip didn't facilitate the immediate borrowing of Book 2. Winning the whole gorgeous set would make it up to me, probably. ;D Happy birthday to you!

  38. I haven't read all of the books. I only read Throne of Glass. I just ordered every single book that has been released in the U.S. hardcovers because I loved the first book so much. Is it stingy of me that I now want the UK covers too ?!?! I hope it's not. Thanks for this amazing giveaway and I hope you have an amazing 22nd birthday!!!

  68. Happy Birthday! My 22nd is 5 months from yesterday (Sept. 17th) (:
    I actually just read the 1st three Throne of Glass books (borrowed from the library) and loved them! Still need to read the Assassin's Blade, and I can not wait for Queen of Shadows!
    Also, not sure if you noticed already, but the GFC option is set as repeatable every day for more entries, thought changing it at this point probably wont make much difference, lol.
    Hope your birthday was swell!
