Make room on your shelves for 2012!
The end of the year is creeping up, and it’s time to clear some space on the bookshelves. What better time to give away books than the holidays? Instead of running out to the stores on Black Friday, stay in and win new or new-to-you books. The hosts for this hop are Heather from Book Savvy Babe, Jenn from The Bawdy Book Blog, and Lisa from Alive on the Shelves. The dates: 12:01 AM Friday November 25 through 11:59 PM November 27. Here are the guidelines to join the hop:
- Giveaway hosts can be any blogger, US/CAN/International, but the giveaway must be book related (books, book depository, Amazon/B&N gift card, etc)
- Must include button with links to the 3 hosts in your post
- Specify if your giveaway is open US or International
- We want this hop to be as easy, stress free, and simple as possible, so no more than 4 entries total per blog host (please, no daily entries either)
- Each host can add their own disclaimers and rules specific to their site, but make sure the post is up at 12:01 Friday and closes at midnight on Sunday
- Be sure that your post is easy to find. Either make it a sticky post or link at the top of your page, or have the button easy to see and link it to your post.
- Either inlude the linky list or link to the linky list of participating blogs in your post.
- We will be checking posts, if your post does not go up on Friday, you will be removed from the linky
- Please try to announce your winners as soon as possible (Monday or Tuesday)
Grab The Button:
The Linky is now closed to new entries. To enter my contest visit my contest post at ENTER BOOK SAVVY BABE’S GIVEAWAY

Wow, I just joined in Queentutt’s World of Escapism. I will be finishing up one and starting another one up – I joined the Gratitude Giveaway Hop which last from Nov 17 to Nov 27th and now I have joined this one which starts Nov 25th thru Nov 27. This should be interesting and fun for me during this time. LOL
September 26, 2011 at 2:05 pm
LOL, lot’s of hops! Should make for lots of fun at your blog and very happy holidays
September 26, 2011 at 2:30 pm
My first blog hop!! I’m sooo excited!! Rage, Sex, and Teddy Bears recommended I join and I’m so glad I did!!
September 27, 2011 at 7:53 am
I keep telling myself no more hop until next year. My budget is taking a hit. LOL But when I saw this one I had to sign up. I’ll have a nice pile of books to clear out by then.
September 27, 2011 at 8:01 am
Yeah, I’m cleaning out shelf space. Plus there are those boxes now, the flat rate priority mail boxes… I will have 1 or 2 of those full of books!

Hi new follower hoping you will follow me back at http://www.beckvalleybooks.blogspot.com thks in advance and love the hopxx
October 11, 2011 at 6:53 am
I’m in! I have several books on my shelf that I’d love to pass on to someone else. Thanks for hosting!
October 14, 2011 at 9:56 am
I have a number of books on my shelf I haven’t even read since I bought my kindle. It’ll be nice to give them to someone else. I may do a amazon gift card or two. Is that allowed?
October 14, 2011 at 11:54 am
Gift cards are definitely allowed. Thanks for joining in!

Hi can I have my giveaway as UK only or does it have to be international?? Thanks x
October 15, 2011 at 10:23 am
Your giveaway can be UK only, that’s fine. Shipping internationally is pretty expensive, we understand completely.
October 19, 2011 at 4:38 am
Thank you for a wonderful hop..I have grabbed your button. I will be working Black Friday so coming home to some great book action will be a great stress reliever . I have also followed your blog!
October 19, 2011 at 10:52 am
I plan on giving away some ebooks but was curious if it is ok to to also add to it things like bookmarks, eyeglass cases, jewelry that is book themed etc.
October 20, 2011 at 9:48 am
Melissa, feel free to add to the giveaway, as long as the giveaway is book related in some way, everything is ok!
November 1, 2011 at 12:27 pm
Are we allowed to donate books that we write? I published an ebook and I’d love to offer it up as a prize.
November 1, 2011 at 12:56 pm
Yes, giving away books you write is perfectly okay
November 7, 2011 at 9:37 am
Thanks so much. I’m in then!

Excellent, thank you! I’m either going to give away an ARC for an upcoming book or an autographed book from tomorrow’s signing once I know what I’m doing!
Thanks for this hop! It’s my second one (I’m participating in my first right now).
November 22, 2011 at 11:53 am
I’ve got my giveaway all set up and ready to go but I’m not sure how to get the list of all the blogs on to my post so that people can just click the name of a blog and enter the giveaway. How would I go about doing that? Can I just tell them to go to one of the host bloggers for a complete list of blogs in the hop? Also I’m still having trouble finding a button for Lisa so I just put her URL. Hope that is acceptable.
November 23, 2011 at 1:42 pm
Hi booksavvybabe!
I was wondering if you could change my link, please?
I am #4 in the Hop, and am Laurie Here Reading & Writing Reviews, and need to change my LINK to this one: http://lauriehere.blogspot.com/p/giveaways.html
This way it will go directly to “the” page that is ALL giveaways and Hops!!
Would you mind jotting me an email off to make sure you get this message before the Hop, please??
I would SOOOO appreciate it!!
thanks!

So I was working on my post and I’m getting confused. Is it just me or are the dates off? Nov 25th is on Sunday and Nov 27th is on Tuesday. But the rules above say Friday through Sunday. Did you mean to Friday 23rd through Sunday 25th??? Or am I missing something?
