Don't get me wrong--I have nothing against birthdays. Birthdays are cool. Turning 56 is a little yawnnnnnn... but mostly, I'm just not doing anything in particular, because, well, me.
For instance, my friend John is coming over tonight for a BBQ and to help me out in the garden because my twisted knee is still, you know, twisted. We'll hang out, eat yummy food, and watch a movie. But it doesn't have anything to do with my birthday. We would have done it anyway.
And the closest I came to getting myself a present was to spend money redoing my driveway. Yes, it is distinctly possible I suck at this. (pictures of driveway to follow)
Which is why the closest I am going to come to an actual celebration of my birthday is by giving away stuff to y'all. Just because that's the way I roll. I asked on Facebook if I should do a giveaway with a VEILED MAGIC theme, or a WICKEDLY POWERFUL theme, or one focused on the upcoming first Rider book, DANGEROUSLY CHARMING
and it was a tie between Veiled Magic and Dangerously Charming. (Thanks. Jeez.)
So here is the prize pack:
Birthday giveaway! |
In case you were wondering what I wanted for my birthday (I know you were), I'd really love to get a few more reviews for Veiled Magic and Wickedly Powerful. So if you've read them, pretty please? Let everyone else know that you liked them?
And now, happy my birthday to you!
a Rafflecopter giveaway
You are so wonderful to us! Veiled Magic is on my TBR list so it would be great to win it. Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteSadly, I'm not giving away the book itself, just a notebook with the cover on it. But you can buy it for only $4.99 :-)
DeleteI have not read Veiled Magic but want to! I am excited to see the Baba Yaga books continue in any which way! My wonderful library has ordered Wickedly Powerful after I requested that they do so and as soon as it comes in, I'll read/review it!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHurrah!
DeleteGood news! Wickedly Powerful is on its way to me! I'll be reading/reviewing it soon!
DeleteHurrah!
DeleteI hope you have a wonderful non-celebratory Birthday!
ReplyDelete:-)
DeleteLooking forward to seeing how the Riders tie into the Baba's world.
ReplyDeleteThe Riders were already in the Baba Yaga books...now they get stories of their own. (Don't worry, the Baba Yagas will show up too.)
DeleteI can't wait. I am starting the series from the begining and can't wait to read all the books.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
DeleteHappy solar return, girl!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a wonderful day filled with love, laughter and magick!
I'm happy anytime an author I enjoy reading gets to continue a series or do a great side read of the supporting characters.
ReplyDeleteBTW I haven't observed, celebrated or acknowledged a birthday in over 35 years. Family members just quietly happen to just send me money at that time of the year.
Gee, could you talk to my family members?
DeleteHappy Birthday, Deborah! I know the driveway seems a "not so sexy" gift, but it counts. I once gave myself solar screens on my house for Mother's Day. :D I hope it's a great day for you, and I'm in the middle of Wickedly Powerful - will review when I'm finished reading. :)
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, the driveway didn't have anything to do with my birthday either. It just happened to get done the day before. And I hope you enjoy Wickedly Powerful!
DeleteHappy birthday! Can't wait for Dangerously Charming!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your birthday! I was not particularly thrilled with birthdays until I lost someone who fought valiantly to reach each one he could. Now I appreciate them and party the entire month! (May) Enjoy the afternoon in the garden. Celebrate with a nice glass, or two, of a really good wine.
ReplyDeleteI just got wine as a present. Great minds...
DeleteHappy early birthday month wishes!
Happy Birthday!

ReplyDeleteYou'd better start reading--you're falling behind :-)
