11 Last Week's ARC Winners and a Surprise MARKED Giveaway

“Voice is that mysterious quality, most important of all, that, if it can be cultivated, cannot be taught: Miles Davis’s trumpet is immediately identifiable and the sob in the back of Billie’s throat is hers and hers alone. Voice boils down to a pungent roux of self, the truest expression of who we are, blended and seasoned with expertise, with our tools of choice — paint, light, lyrics, melody, choreography, chords, dialogue, sentences — whatever calls us. Voice is not much without chops, but chops without voice, however virtuosic, amounts to little more than elevator music.”

 — BE THOU VOICE, DINAH LENNEY,
on memoirists, actors, musicians, and other cover artists


Had to share that before I hit the giveaway winners from last Friday. The whole article is worth devouring. Some delicious insights!

Okay, and now to the giveaways. Winners, please email your addresses so I can mail your books!

The winner of Han Nolan's PREGNANT PAUSE is:


Bending Tree Press


The winner of Stephen Emond's WINTERTOWN  is:

And since the House of Night novels were brought up last night on a fabulous #YALITCHAT, I'm going to give away a surprise copy of MARKED: A House of Night Novel.



Comment below by midnight to win. (Sorry, U.S. and Canadian entries only.)

Happy reading,

Martina
