Giveaway #128 - 3 copies of A Year Without Autumn - closed - winners @chocolateonemse @gumbie23 @beachpebble


I've just posted my review for the fabulous A Year Without Autumn, which you can read here. It's a tale of friendship, family and a mysterious time-travelling lift which is far too good to be reserved for the kids ! Thanks to the lovely author Liz Kessler (who you can follow on twitter @lizkesslerbooks), I have three copies of the book to give away to Madhouse Family Reviews readers.

To be in with the chance of winning, just do the following two things :


(1) follow my blog with Google Friends Connect (over on the side bar on the right)


(2) leave me a comment in the comments box with a way of contacting you (twitter name or email) and tell me : if you could take a lift to any year in the past or future, where would you go and why ? (If I don't hear back from you within a week, I'll have to pick another winner.)

Bonus entries :
You can do any or all of the following for bonus entries - just make sure you leave me one comment per entry so that they're all counted !


(1) I love reading your comments so leave me some extra comments on my other blogposts (maximum 5 - other giveaways don't count !) and I'll give you a bonus entry for each one. Just remember to leave me a comment here each time to tell me you've done so.



(2) Follow me on twitter (@cherylp59) and tweet about my comp - this is now dead easy if you click on the tweet button on the right-hand side bar. Feel free to shorten if necessary, or you can make up your own tweet. Make sure you copy in @cherylp59 so I can track this.


(3) Subscribe to my blog by email (near the top of the right-hand sidebar) so that all the new posts pop into your inbox in a handy digest every morning

(4) I've created a facebook page for Madhouse Family Reviews so I'd love for you to become a follower on there too - http://www.facebook.com/pages/Madhouse-Family-Reviews/144910798898626  


UK only. Closing date : 30/10/11

    The question is hard to answer for me. I suppose the year that I think of as 'the best year of my life' was my A level year when I turned 18 but, now I have my little boy, I don't think I would want to risk never having him so I don't actually think I would press rewind. Maybe I should rewind the last 18 months so I can have my baby's first months again!

  24. A year- well how about 1982. My brother was killed in a car crash, I would give anything to go back and be there to stop it happening. I live the nightmare everyday, and for those who say time heals- no it does not.

    I would go back to 1066 and the Battle of Hastings and go up to King Harold with the arrow in his eye and just say 'you should have gone to Specsavers' Why you ask, no reason, just for the joke.

  81. For me, Adult Brain Teasers are the perfect mental challenge. They provide a lovely combination of amusement and mental challenge. Whether I'm working on them with a buddy or by myself, I always enjoy the process. The greatest thing is how adaptable they are; you can find brain teasers for every occasion and difficulty level. Imagine having a vast collection of mind-bending riddles that are begging to be solved!
