Reading Road-trip - Hawaii!





Reading Road-trip time!  In this giveaway hop hosted by I Like These Books and Icey Books, each stop visits another state in the great US of A to feature a book either written by an author from that state or that takes place in that state.

I'm the last stop on the Reading Road-trip tour and interestingly enough, my state is the only you can't actually reach by road... HAWAII!




I will be giving away a copy of The Raft by S.A. Bodeen, or rather I will be preordering a copy for you since it doesn't come out until the middle of August.  The book tells the story of a teenage girl who's in plane crash in Hawaii and ends up in a raft in the middle of the ocean with just a bag of Skittles and the plane's copilot.  Sounds awesome right?  Enter with the Rafflecopter below and be sure to check out the previous forty-nine states by clicking here for the schedule.

  17. I want to know if she survives. I would hope so, but you never know. NOt every story has a happy ending. The situation in The Raft is one of the worst possible. I would be horrified. Not only did she just witness death on a large scale, but now she is on a raft in the ocean. There are sharks. That is bad enough. But with only skittles and she can't drink the ocean water because it will severely dehydrate you but you have to stare at water all day while you are incredibly thirsty. I am very interested to see how this is handled.

  21. The cover got my attention first, I'll admit it. But holy cow this sounds awesome. Stranded and not even sure if anyone knows you are missing? YES!!! This is the #1 spot on my wish list so I am crossing my fingers big time here :)
