Week 1:
What’s black and white and re(a)d all over?
Hint:
The king came before the pawn.

review of the Twilight Saga

Week 2:
Why did the wolf cross the woods?
To meet the girl in green.

my rant of Linger

Week 3:
Why are your eyes so red Mr. Wolf?
The better to look at you Little Miss Red
with your cloak to hide.

Week 4:
Hey, you! You with the blond hair
Yeah you in the blue!
What’s that in your head?
Are those…horns?

We had 116 entries and only 4 of them were wrong this month! Everyone's getting better at this! And the winner is...Marg K.!! (gosia...) Please email me your address Marg. I do not plan to hunt you done.

Next Saturday we're starting a new contest. The prize will be my ARC of Dangerous Neighbors so be on the lookout for that! Since everyone did extremely well this month that means I'm making it too easy for you ;) Just in case it's the latter, next month is going to *hard*

Books by its Cover July Winner

It seems as though Week 1 was the easiest by far. Week 2 and Week 3 proved to be a big challenge (that or not many seemed to care lol). Below are the correct answers, but I will admit that some answers I received could have worked except for one or two words.

Week 1:
Fire, passion, anger
Endless cycle—
a snake eating its own tail

my review of The Eternal Ones will be up shortly

Week 2:
The bright neon;
Hazardous;
Both design and font.
Osculate

you can read my review of Crash Test Love here

Week 3:
Mutated slime
Tendrils search,
Then embed.

you can read my review of The Gardener here

Week 4:
Space, void, nothingness;
Thorny heart;
Hush—it’s—!

you can read my review of Forbidden here

And the long awaited winner is... ALLISON (killer___@hotmail.com)!

Next month is a new start for Books by its Cover so hopefully this served as a good practice! The prize is my ARC of Sea by Heidi R. Kling so if you are interested watch out for next Saturday. Contest is open internationally and past winners are allowed to enter again for next month.
