Contest Monday: Win a Copy of Shiver

So I hope you're enjoying New Features week, even though it hasn't been too new yet. :-) But here's the Contest Monday post I've been hinting at for a few days. You are playing for a brand new ARC of Maggie Stiefvater's highly anticpated new release, Shiver.

For those of you who don't know, an ARC of Shiver was recently sold on eBay for over $70! I don't know who would want to get ahold of it so much they couldn't wait until it's release on August 1st, but here's your chance to pick up this book for absolutely free. That will make that winning bidder look silly!

About the Book (From Back Cover): "For years, Grace has watched the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf--her wolf--is a chilling presence she can't seem to live without. Meanwhile, Sam has lived two lives: In winter, the frozen woods, the protection of the pack, and the silent company of a fearless girl. In summer, a few precious months of being human . . . until the cold makes him shift back again.

Now, Grace meets a yellow-eyed boy whose familiarity takes her breath away. It's her wolf. It has to be. But as winter nears, Sam must fight to stay human--or risk losing himself, and Grace, forever."
