March Debut Contest!

4/1/10 note: If you got here through and old link, go here for my April contest.

Wow! February is toast. Gone. Poof. It’s March 1st! Time for a new debut contest! You can’t wait, can ya?

This month there are a TON (literally—I weighed them) of really amazing YA debuts. I had trouble choosing just four, but I’m happy with my choices and I’m so totally going to read them all! (You guys don’t mind a gently used prize, do you?)

So…a reminder of the contest and the rules:

Below, I’ve posted my four debut picks for March. All you have to do to enter to win one is comment on this post before noon pacific time on Friday, March 26th. One winner will be chosen using the randomizer and I’ll post the winner after noon on the 26th. The winner will then be allowed to choose one title off my picks list OR a signed ARC or copy of PERSONAL DEMONS (when I get them)! Yay!

In addition to commenting (for which you get one point) you can earn extra points each month as follows:

Old follower: +3 points
New follower: +2 points
Link to my contest post on your blog or twitter: +1 points
Dedicated post with link to my contest on your webpage/blog: +3 points
Add me to your sidebar blogroll: +2 points

Also on your entry, please remember to tell me how to find you (email address).

And remember, there will be no rollover points. Points start new every month.

*drumroll*

My March debut picks are as follows:

Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver
Forget Her Nots by Amy Brecount White
The Line by Teri Hall
The Body Finder by Kimberly Derting

Good luck everyone! Remember to enter early and enter often. (Joking—only one entry per person please.) And spread the word!! The more the merrier!
