Alright so here’s the deal: I have a lot of books. A lot a lot of books. And now it looks fairly certain that we’ll be moving back to England when our lease is up at the end of January. PANIC MODE IS OFFICIALLY INITIATED.
What does this have to do with you? Well, it means I currently have a lot of books that need to go! So I’m having a book giveaway because this is better than giving them back to the thrift shops. Wanted to try a book out but couldn’t afford it? Now’s your chance! Want to try something entirely different? What an opportunity! Don’t have enough books? Of course you fucking don’t! Have enough books? Don’t fucking lie!
I will ship this shit pretty much anywhere. If you have any questions about whether or not I’ll ship to whatever rock you live under, just feel free to ask!
Rules:
You gotta be following me. I ain’t quite that charitable that I’ll give away shit to strangers, y’see.
Likes do not count. Only reblogs count.
Multiple reblogs are allowed; I will literally never turn down extra exposure to more people I can irritate.
Deadline is 11:59pm EST on 7 December, 2015. Reblogs after that receive only my appreciation, not my consideration.
Three (3) randomly selected winners will be announced by no later than 5:00pm EST 10 December, 2015. You’ll be tagged in the announcement post, so make sure to check on that shit.
I am only giving away books. Don’t ask for any of the props in the pictures cause that’s all they are.
Don’t like how I categorised the books? Great! Send me an ask and tell me how far I had my head up my ass! They will be answered publicly.
Prizes:
First Prize – Four (4) books of your choice. You get first pick.
Second Prize – Three (3) books of your choice. You get to choose after the first winner.
Third Prize – Two (2) books of your choice. You choose from what’s left over.
