I’m so excited to announce that I get to be the official blogger for the Fierce Reads tour stop here in Philly this coming Tuesday! (Are you in Philly?? YOU MUST COME!!). This means I get to interview the authors but that ALSO I was given an AWESOME prize pack, courtesy of Macmillan, to get signed for one of you lucky ducks!! I’m jealous of the winner in advance.
So what is in the prize pack?
A signed copy of Cinder & Scarlet by Marissa Meyer
A signed copy of Tumble & Fall by Alexandra Coutts
A signed copy of This Song Will Save Your Life by Leila Sales
A signed copy of The Compound & The Fallout by S.A Bodeen
This giveaway is only open for US mailing addresses.
It will end Tuesday at 4pm EST.
No purchase necessary. I will not sell/distribute any of your info.
To see if there is a tour stop near you, check out Fierce Reads Facebook page!
ALSO IMPORTANT: Do you have any burning questions for any of these authors?? Leave them in the comments and I will pick a few to ask!!
Trina says
What an amazing giveaway. I seriously need to read Cinder and This Song Will Save Your Life already. Hope I win! 😉
Jamie says
I loved BOTH of them!! *crosses fingers for you* I WISH I COULD JUST BE LIKE OPRAH AND BE LIKE … “a prize pack for YOU…a prize pack for YOU…everyone gets prize packs!!!”
Tiffani says
I do have a question for Marissa Meyer: How much research (if ANY) went into your fairy tale retellings? Especially for the world building.
Jamie says
Awesome question! Thank you!
Kelly says
I hope I win. 🙂 I can’t wait to hear about the blog stop! Can’t wait to hear about it. 🙂
Jamie says
I will definitely be livetweeting and blogging it!
Corrissa says
Love your blog! Love to read!!! Thanks for all the fantastic recommendations!!!
Jamie says
You are welcome!! Thank you for reading. xoxo
Sam @ Celestial Carousel says
I agree with Trina–this is an amazing giveaway! I’ve never read any of these books, but I’ve been dying to read the majority of them.
I wish there was a Fierce Reads tour stop near me!
Jamie says
I just recently read This Song Will Save Your Life and it was FAB! And Cinder actually blew my mind that I liked it bc I TOTALLY didn’t think it would be my thing!!
I got lucky with a tour stop this time! Sometimes we get passed over and it makes me sad. Hopefully next season they will come near you!
Jen @ Pop! Goes The Reader says
That’s so exciting – Congratulations, Jamie! 😀 I hope you have a wonderful time and I can’t wait to hear all about it!
I do have a couple of questions, if you have the time to ask them:
For Leila Sales – If she could listen to only five songs for the rest of her life, which would they be and why?
For Alexandra Coutts – If she knew the world were ending tomorrow, what are three things that she would want to do before it ended?
Jamie says
AWESOME questions. Def using them!! This is so fun! I was like “Hmm I wonder if I let my readers help me interview them if they will be down for that?” so YAY! I came up with questions already but yours are better hahah
Riley says
OMG this is the best giveaway ever. I read Cinder over the summer and I LOVED IT SO MUCH. (I actually read it because I saw it on this very blog!) I’m so so so enchanted by her worldbuilding. I wanna know why she picked a neo-imperial China for her setting (is Cinderella originally a Chinese/Eastern story? Was it just a stroke of genius? Is there something about China that works particularly well for the story?)
michelle santiago says
i really want to read all of these books but especially leila sales’ new novel. i have great things about it with all the awesome music
Tiffany- Escaping... One Book @ a Time says
WOW!! That is a seriously amazing pile of books!!! If I were there I think I would try and ask them what the most awkward moment they have had since becoming an author is…
I know it’s not amazing but I have loved the answers authors give 🙂
Amanda @ Late Nights with Good Books says
I hope that someday some YA book tour will make the rounds by me. *fingers crossed* That is exciting news that you get to interview the authors before their event! Also, this is a fantastic prize pack and I’ve been meaning to read these all. Thanks for this giveaway and I hope you have a wonderful time seeing these authors! 🙂
Erika says
Love your blog, Jamie! And all of these are on my TBR list
Kari says
Woo hoo! Thanks for the awesome giveaway =). This is two awesomes in the book blogging world combined: Jamie and Fierce Reads! I can’t steer wrong with either yours or their recommendations =)
Sara at WhatANerdGIrlSays says
I always want to know the different advice that a published author has for writers, and I always like to know what their different methods are.
Sarah m says
Cool contest!!
Niki Hawkes says
Awesome giveaway – thank you for the opportunity! 🙂
Steph McLain says
If I win these will be donated to an auction for an animal shelter!
Sarah K says
Amazing giveaway! Wish I was in Philly so I could go to the event!
Ana Jordan says
Awesome giveaway! Thank you!!!!!!
Kaitlin Michelle says
Wow! Great giveaway!! My question to each author would be if they could only carry one book with them during the apocalypse, which book would you take?
Ashley says
So excited, I’ve been dying for Leila Sale’s book.
Jennifer Ward says
Would love this for me…I mean my classroom library. 😉
Christine @ The Bookish Daydreamer says
So incredibly jealous of you, Jamie! There seems to never be any big tours like this near me. I did find out that the second leg of the Fierce Reads tour will be about 2 hours away, however, but I haven’t read any of those books in the series so I probably won’t go. This first leg has some awesome people! Did you read THE COMPOUND? I read it when it first came out back in 2008 and am so incredibly excited about THE FALLOUT. I’ve heard that THIS SONG WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE was amazing and am looking forward to reading it eventually. This is a great set of books so thank you for hosting the giveaway! Can’t wait to see your post about the tour! Have fun!!
Angie says
This Song Will Save Your Life is amazing! And I’m super excited to meet Marissa Meyer myself in a couple of weeks at Wordstock in Portland. I’m pretty eager to read Tumble & Fall because I’ve heard so many mixed reviews of it, I want to see for myself.
Alexia @ Adventures in Reading says
Awesome giveaway!
I need to read This Song Will Save Your Life. Everyone is telling me that I need to.
Becky says
Great giveaway!
Wendy @ Wensend.com says
Only US. Whyyyy? 🙁
No, I totally get it Jamie. I’m just a little sad I can’t participate, since I’m in The Netherlands! But the winner will be one lucky bastard. 😉

Leticia says
I’ve heard some really great things about Cinder, Scarlet, & This Song Will Save Your Life! This is an amazing giveaway!! Good luck to all those entering! : )
Nae says
Awesome! Thanks for the giveaway 🙂
Leandra says
Woo-hoo! I always enter these giveaways thinking I’ll never win- but ya never know! =) Lets see a question… I would ask the authors if they ever have characters come to them in a dream, and if they do, do they feel more strongly about the characters that come to them in that form, than they do if they just sit around and brainstorm them up?
Thanks!
Sydney says
What a great giveaway! I really need to get on with reading Cinder because it looks fabulous and I’ve heard such great things about it. My TBR pile is becoming obnoxious, really.
Unfortunately Fierce Reads isn’t stopping in Las Vegas. 🙁 Ah, typical.
Amy says

David Harlow says
I like turtles.
Helen @ My Novel Opinion says
What a great giveaway! I’ve been wanting to read Cinder for the longest time (even checking it out at the library) but I had to return it before I got to read it. And I HAVE to read This Song Will Save Your Life after all of the awesome reviews I’ve been reading!
Andrea @ Beauty but a Funny Girl says
So jealous of you right now! Really wish I could go to this tour, but it’s just a smidge too far away. 🙁
Jessica says
I have been wanting to read Tumble & Fall and This Song Will Save My Life. Thanks for the “fierce giveaway”
Ariel says
Thank you for this amazing giveaway! I’m going on the Fierce Reads Tour this Friday, I’m so excited! The only book I have read is Cinder though, but I’m about to start Scarlet! I heard This Song Will Save Your is REALLY good, so I look forward to reading that one too!
