And the Winners Are…

Published by Hava under Contests and Giveaways, Nonfiction Lover Edit This

So I’ve been running my first ever contest here at Nonfiction Book Reviews over the last couple of weeks, and yesterday was the last day for said contest.  Which means that today, we get to have the fun of announcing the winners!

::drumroll:: Here are the winners, in the order they were chosen:

Lynne from Life After Work
Deb from Story Beader
Jo from Fantasy Book Reviews
Anne from Permissions Please
Jennifer from Travel and Adventure Books

Very cool, eh? :-D Congrats to everyone on the list!!

Again, the prizes were:

** 3,000 EntreCard credits Chosen by Deb
** Simplexity by Jeffrey Kluger (a book review: Simplexity)
** Before the Scalpel by Panchali Dhar, MD (my book review: Before the Scalpel)
** $5 gift card to Starbucks Chosen by Lynne
** $5 gift card to Barnes and Noble

A couple things to keep in mind: I am offering the prizes one at a time, going down through the list, so Lynne has first choice, Deb has second, etc, until I run out of people and prizes.

If I get towards the end of the list and someone doesn’t want anything left on the list (which I totally understand - perhaps you did this in hopes of winning the Simplexity book, but it’s chosen, and you really don’t want anything else) then I will simply do a second drawing and pull out another name. At that point, this new person has the choice of accepting or turning down the prize. I will continue to draw names until I run out of prizes or run out of names. ;-)

Last thing: If you live in another country, then you would have to pay for the shipping costs of either of the books in order to receive it as your prize. I’m a poor college student, what can I say?  So if you’re overseas, I’d probably suggest sticking to either the gift cards or the EC credits, unless you’re really in love with one of those books.

Oh, and please note that I am marking the prizes off the list as they are chosen, so you guys can keep track of the prizes left throughout the day. :-)

Congratulations all!! I really appreciate everyone’s entries; I had a lot of fun with this!!! I am already planning my next giveaway.

Hugs,

Hava
