Congrats everyone!!! I can’t wait to see the reviews start coming in.
Hey SB Sara-danadan- Can you give us a write up of interesting things from the submissions? Ideas, poetry etc- I think it would be really cool to see…
It’s January 5th, the shopping is done, the gifts are put away, and maybe you’re wearing that sweater someone gave you for the holidays. We’re all back at work, it’s probably cold, unless you’re in the southern hemisphere, and it’s a bit of a bummer.
Not anymore! Want to win an ARC copy of The Smart Bitch Book, also known as Beyond Heaving Bosoms: The Smart Bitches’ Guide to Romance Novels? Sure, why not! I’ve got 10 ARCs sitting in my room with me (I gaze upon them more frequently than is necessary, and I admit it) and I’d like to share them with you. International shipping is fine, because it’s all about sharing the lurrrrrrrve™.
Here’s the deal: leave a comment here, and I’ll pick 10 at random. If you win a copy, however, you agree to (a) read it, and (b) email me your review, reaction, or general impression. Squeeing is optional and not at all required. If you hate it, I wanna hear about it. ARC winner reviews will be posted as Guest Bitch Reviews in the soon-to-be-launched Smart Bich Book section of this here hot pink wonder palace.
Caveat blah blah: it’s an ARC. I know for a fact that Candy and I made big ass changes, because, well, we made big ass changes. Some of the illustrations are different, there’s additional material we inserted (sorry about that, production department!) and errors were spanked mightily. So keep that in mind - this is not the finished product.
However! It is, in our opinion, really freaking cool. So if you want one, you know what to do. Leave your comment, and I’ll pick winners in 24 hours. Ready, set, go.
!!!!!!!!!!
I would love to start the new semester off right with a Smart Bitches ARC! My bosom is heaving already from the excitement. Come on, luck be a lady tonight!
Hey, how about awarding them to the first 10 responders? grin
I’d love to educate myself about heaving bosoms (and why is that not spelled as it is pronounced?)
Count me in! I’m the best review writer this side of the Atlantic (and Pacific).
ARC me, baby. ARC me good.
(spamfilter: came26. As in, 26 times? Bury-me-in-a-Y-shaped-coffin? Yikes)
I have all my fingers and toes crossed and would happily review it on my own blog. Promise :)
I will give it all the squeeeeeee it deserves!!
Arc me too!!
ARC me any time, any place, any how!
I’ve always had a hankering to be a kind of copy editor…though I was always afraid that they’d give me a genre that I hate. I’d love to give this a go - to quote John Cleese as the Pope speaking to Eric Idle as Michaelangelo, “I may not know art, but I know what I like!”
I’d love to give it a review. :) And I will be honest!
heaving bosoms (and why is that not spelled as it is pronounced?)
Huh. How do you pronounce bosom? I’m Australian and say it how it’s spelled. Bo like the first part of bog, Som like the sound of song but with more of an m…
I would love to be a reviewer! This book looks like so much fun :)
Congratulations!
You had me at the cover. But seriously, her shoulder is looking a little dislocated.
ARC would be the coolest!
Don’t listen to GrowlyCub—send one to the first 14 responders.
Count me in please, I’d love to read this and right now april seems so far away.
Fingers crossed and knotted!
-anin
It would be so cool to check out your awesomeness before it is released in stores!
Count me in! I’d love to be one of the cool kids who gets a copy.
A copy would be loverlee. I am so excited at the thought I am coming out of lurkdom to comment for the first time evar.
Oooo, pick me, pick me!
That you’re willing to ship internationally makes me adore you all the more. Thanks for everything, and have a lovely day! :-)
I’ve already got one! Heeheheheheheheheeee!!!!!!!!!!
I wantz it, precious. (Sorry, was recently re-watching LOTR over Christmas.)
I would love to have an ARC!
Wow, I always pick the best times to get my nose out of my study books and come up for air!
Congratulations on the books, by the way.
What is on my mind today?
Ronald Regan: Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
Voltaire : I do not agree with what you have to say, but I’ll defend to the death your right to say it.
Baruch Spinoza: Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice.
I’m in.
I would love an ARC of the book! I’m hoping I’ll get picked!
Please, send me an ARC!
Why does the guy on the cover look like Adrian Pasdar? Not that I’m complaining.
And in an attempt to get some converstation going, why do Iranians get no love in sheikh romances? I’m no expert but the options for place of origin seem to be either a) Egypt/Maghreb, b) Peninsula, or c) Agrabah, by which I mean FakeArabistan, not specifically Faux Iraq, which I think Agrabah is meant to be.
Anyway: why no love for the Iranian stereotypes?
Ooh! Me me me me me meee!
Oooh, me please! *attempts to exert will upon random number generator…*
Sign me up, count me in, I’ll boogey down because that’s awesome!
Please, Ma’am(‘s) may I have an ARC? I promise I’d review the heck out of it!
I cannot wait to read this book! I’ve been enjoying the SB site for about six months now and one of my New Year’s Resolutions is to stop being a lurker - what better way to start than to beg for an ARC?
I’d love an ARC of the book!
Yes Please!!
Yessss!!!!!!
Just a few hours ago I was complaining about how I’ll never survive until the actual release…
I WANT it, I NEED it, and other such sentiments.
Yay!
woo! Count me in!
I love to break the tedium of my master’s thesis by reading trashy books. This would be even better! I would greatly appreciate an ARC! :)
Count me in! I’d love to read some bitchin’ goodness!
Make my new year- let me win this! Looks like a super book- will buy in april no matter what.
I’d love to read it, count me in.
I can’t resist throwing my hat in the ring for this one.
into76 into what?
I would love to win one. Heck, I’d even post a LibraryThing review.
Me, ME, Pick me!!!! I’m already half in lurrrrrrve with the SB book. Who wouldn’t be with that awesome cover?? The manliest of men with a scantily-clad hottie within his grasp, swooning from his hetero heat. I’ve gots to have it! Pleaasssseee!!!
If you are brave enough to let me read it. *insert evil laugh*
Love to exercise my reviewing muscles! Count me in.
Please add me to your list of Raiders of the New ARCS!
Comment! Also, am I the only one who thinks the gentleman on the cover looks a bit like Adrian Pasdar? Or, more accurately, Nathan Petrelli? Just me? Cool.
Yeah, yeah, I’ll buy many copies, but dammit, I want one NOW.
*ahem*
This is my third attempt at posting a comment here… hope this works.
Hope you SBs are having a great new year.
And how terrible is it that when I read the word “heaving”, I usually think of um.. retching?
Oh yeah, sign me up!
Since international shipping is in the books, count me in!
Here’s to playing the ARC lottery!
Hey there!
I would just love to read and review your book before it hits the shelves!! Pick me, because not only will I read the free copy and write you a fair and honest reaction to it, but I will also make sure to buy copies for all of my friends.
I’d love to check out a copy!
I’d love BHB, even if writing a review smacks of homework. And since my ver word is study41, I feel winning is fated…unless I’m meant to learn more about George HW Bush, in which case, shoot me now.
The false copy I made for the videomo has been taunting me, so I would definitely be jazzed to have a real one.
I’d love to give it a read & review, especially as I’m relatively new to the genre. There’s no one I trust more than you guys to point me in the right direction!
Coming out of the woodwork…
Squee!
Um, I mean, uh, receviing an ARC would be most intellectually gratifying.
SQUEE!!! (A high pitched girlish noise). Every other week I check my pre-orders at Amazon.com and there you are, not available until APRIL. I keep checking the date thinking it will change. So… the thought that there are actual copies available for perusal is KRAZY.
I exist among a group of non-believers who think I am squandering precious brain cells, please let me be one who can assist in the support of a most beloved genre.
Ooh, this is fun. I hope I get picked!
Should I win, I’d happily slide this to the top of the to-be-read list in order to send back an opinion. :)
I would love a chance to get an ARC of this, and gladly will give you honest feedback on it.
The tingle started as the postman approached the door. She peeped shyly through the lace curtains, her heart pounding. Was this it? Was the ARC going to show its face? Could they finally sit down and exchange all that pent-up lust and misunderstanding that had been building up pressure these past months? Her mouth quivered, and she caught her breath in a desperate gasp as the postman slid, with smooth precision, his package into her box.
I want one too. Please.
Sam
Nothing pithy to say, I’d just enjoy an ARC.
Eek, I want to win a copy!
I had no idea you guys were writing a book. I’d love to read it!!
Me want ARC.
I can’t wait to get my hands on this bok, you gals are so awesome :)
Awesome! I’d love to be entered, too. :) Thanks!
*cough* I meant “book”. Something about typing with a 6 month old on your lap…it leads to many typos.
Would love an ARC to give an opinion. My hubby says I’m a pro at throwing in my thoughts!
I’d love to get my hands on a copy! (And would definitely give a review ... though sometimes the squees cannot be helped.)
Wow! I want me some Heaving Bosums—in a platonic way, of course. I bet it feels great to actually hold a copy in your hands after all the hard work it must have taken. LUV me some ARC.
Oh please do include me in the ARC draw, thank you!
Count me in! Even better, I can give you the added perspective of a librarian who specializes in reader’s advisory ;)
ME! me me me! pick me!
You bitches are so generous! Please add me to the “Me Wantz” list.
YES YES YES! I would bear Smart Bitch babies for the chance to get my paws on one of your ARCs!
I could totally use a guide to romance novels! :D esp. from you Smart Bitches—has to be good!
I can has ARC?
MEEEEEEEEEEE! Oh. I mean SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
I still have it on preorder and will keep that because how cool to have before and after?!?
YES PLEASE
I can’t wait to read this book! So many plots to snark, so little time…
Wheeeeeeeee! I can’t wait to get this book.
I’m not sure I can match the awesomeness of an SB review, but I’ll give it my best shot. Put me into the pot, please!
Me! Me! I want to win one!
Oh, pick me! Pick me!
This looks awesome! Please put my name in the draw.
Oooooh!!!! I’d love one! And I’d totally quote you in my PhD thesis, too! :-)
Oooh, me, too! Me, too! *waves frantically*
Congratulations, bitches! You are now published!
sign me up! I’ll totally take a chance to review the book early!
I’ve ordered a copy from Amazon but I’d lurv an ARC!!!
Want want want want in a bad way.
How’s that for pleading?
I would love to get my hands on an arc.
Hi.
I think I can be honest and do a review if I win. So pretty please enter me to win. I’ll squee loudly if I do.
Ohh! Pick me! Pick me!!! I’d *love* to give a fresh Canadian perspective!! ;p
— Bonz
I want it! But I’ll have to buy a copy even if I win, because of all the changes you said you guys made. That was sneaky and smart.
Do me, Bitches.
Surely being #101 would bring me an ARC!
my word: poor99
Wow, so true!
Sign me up! Would love to have a copy!
Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!!! I’d love to read it!! :)
I want, I want, I want. It’s all about me, right?
I’d love a copy! Count me in!
I sooo want to read this book, like right now!
Oooh! Oooooh! Me!
Have to enter…
Oh, oh pick me. I promise that I’ll read & review it before I allow the grad school monster to suck me back into the world of no reading for fun.
I would love to give it a whirl.
little19 I hope not.
Ooh! What a way to start of 2009 - with some Smart Bitchy action! Totally hot! I would be honored to read and review your new book. Cheers!
I’m drooling heavily in anticipation….gimme…please?
Oh ... so exciting. Everyone I know will be getting this *next* Christmas. :)
Well, the first day back after vacation started off with consoling my mom 4,000 miles away over her dog getting hit by a car and dying in front of her. It was then topped off by having to go to immigration and having a potential of being deported, but no one can give me a definitive answer. It included being questioned in a room with bars on the windows, the overhead lights turned off, and a “translator” guy who’s English rivals the two years of Japanese I took 11 years ago.
But you know what? If I had had a SB book to distract me at any part of the day, it all would have been good. And hey, if I do get deported, this would be great for the 12 hour plane ride! :)
ARC me, baby.
(not the other92)
Ooh, enter me!
Definitely add me to the list!!
Wow! I registered for the RT Conference and wanted to check out your blog since I want to attend your workshop. I’m very impressed and would love to read your book before hearing you in April!
Excitedly waving hand—pick me, pick me! :-)
Oh, I want one! :-)
My kids have been Shrekking it again so I’ve got Donkey stuck in my head shouting “Pick me, Pick me, oohh, oohh pick me!
Ooh! I’d love to win this and I would eagerly review it.
if you don’t mind shipping to ireland, count me in!
I’d love to see a copy, I’m getting ready to teach REaders’ Advisory and Popular Literature to library school students again this summer and I’m always looking to get them some new readings, especially on genres like romance, which most don’t seem to understand.
It’s damn cold today up here in the Great White North and I could use some Smart Bitch Lurrrrve (TM) to warm me up.
OMG, want, want!
Oooooooh- pick me! Um, please?
Happy new year gals! I’m looking forward to the new book, fantastic cover!
Pick me, pick me, pick me!
How cool would it be to have an ARC of Beyond Heaving Bosoms? Just the coolest thing ever. Fingers crossed.
Indeed, I will purchase it when it arrives in stores, but my new year’s resolution is to give in to instant gratification. Help a bitch out.
(Though it’s not looking good that my word is never88. Le sigh…)
I would love one! It would give me something practical to do with my English degree besides the thousand papers in store next semester.
...of course, I’d have to buy The Book anyway because of all the additions. But still!
I’m in!! As long as I can post a review at my site, too.
Read, baby, read!
Gimme!!!! Pretty please…???
Me! Me! In the wors of my toddler, pweeeeeezzzz!!!!
Yes. Please. Thank you.
Of course I would love to win an ARC, pre-changes and all!
(Spamblocker: opened69. I KNOW.)
Oh man, count me in!
Squee! I want this book. Please.
here’s hoping I git lucky in 2009…
yes, yes and yes…that may be one yes to many. Would love one!
Me, me! I wanna read it! :)
I want one!
I just realized last night I have one more week off. But… Pick me anyway. I am not only a highly qualified cocksucker I have been known to kiss ass.
I’ve already pre-ordered a copy…but I still would love to get my hands on an ARC!
Security word: been29. Yup, I’ve been 29, and it wasn’t the happiest year of my life. 30 was better, and 35 isn’t starting so badly either.
Here’s a preemptive *SQUEEEEE*!!!!
(If it helps any, one year I did book reviews for Elle magazine—you know how they have a section of “reader reviews” and have a whole “best of the year” thing. It was actually pretty cool, and I read a couple of good books. May try to get on the panel again sometime.)
Must have must have must have. Don’t care if it’s an ARC. Quality will out.
I would love a copy!
Please!
Oh how me wants for my vacation.
Me me me! If I get one I promise to filk a song about it! (Burma Sauce and white hoo-hoos optional.)
I would love to have an ARC of Heaving Bosoms to review and promote on my blog. I’m planning to promote the book,regardless,but
giving it an early review would be great:)
Sure, I’d love an excuse to do more reading!
This was going to be a bad start to a bad week- the first week of classes, but now all can be happy because I have something to rejoice in.
Please? Please!!
OOOoooOoooOoO
Can I has heaving Bosom? Pls.. before I got off into that scary territory known as law school.
*frantically waving both hands*
pick me! pick me!
do hereby solemnly swear that, if chose, I will put aside any and all other reading to focus solely on your ARC—comments and squeeing to follow via return email!
hmmmm, verification is study92—obviously, I’m meant to study your book!
me me me. My stick figures need more data.
spamword: movement98
cuz it’s all about the movement, baby
Ooh, pick me! Pick me! :-) Cool cover & congratulations!
Wants. Precious.
Why, I would love to win an arc for review and thanks for asking, you smart bitches, you. LOL
Deidre
That would make my day! It looks amazing!
Ooh ooh ooh, pick me! Pick me! I will totally be good and squee and say wonderful things about smart bitches!
I’m late to the party! Spend last night LMAO at Videomos. No better finish than an ARC of the subject material.
hmm, second82, I guess I am.
Nothing cool and/or scintillating to say here. I just want a copy. ;)
looks like a fun read!
Count me in.
Hey, cool! I always send your cover-snark entries to my mother, to cheer her up. I know we’d both enjoy this book, and I plan on buying a copy when it comes out. But to get it for free would be sweet-times-ten!
Ooh, totally. I’ve always wished to review something! *pleading eyes*
Congratulations on the book! I can’t wait to read it!
oooh! me, please!
Ooooo! Me wants!
I want! If it’s anything like SBTB, I imagine it will be a riot… pick meeeee!
Huh. How do you pronounce bosom? I’m Australian and say it how it’s spelled.
In the UK we say the ‘bo’ with a U sound, to rhyme with ‘to’, and the ‘som’ as ‘sum’ (ie when you total up numbers).
As for why it’s spelled one way and said another, that’s just English for you. Formed as one written language from many, many different spoken dialects. Added to which, pronunciations have changed over time: witness some of Shakespeare’s rhymes. When he wrote them, the words sounded the same, but now one or both words are said differently.
I’m a Smart Bitch, so I need this ARC! (By the way, congrats on getting it published!) Love the cover!
Not only would I read it and post a review, but the review would also go up on my blog, Deep Thoughts, which I turned into a book review blog last year. 510+ reviews and counting…
I’d love a copy!
Pleasepleaseplease! :)
Oh, man! An ARC would be fabulous! And it’s my birthday! That would be the best birthday present of all!
I would love to add this to my libraries collection!
*perks up with interest*
Chance at getting something that I want anyway for *free?*
OVER ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY COMMENTS IN LESS THAN TWELVE HOURS?????? ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME????????? sorry. i’ll stop shouting now. BUT I REALLY REALLY WANT ONE OF THOSE BOOKS! EVEN WITH ERRORS THAT NEED TO BE SPANKED! no, really. i’ll stop shouting. maybe a little squee.
squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Count me in! I’d love to read it, review it, and squee about it. :)
I’d love to read your ARC and give feedback on it. Pick me. Pick me!
Ooh, fun! I promise to read it and send reactions! There might even be a play by play involved! Can you imagine?
With trembling fingers, I tore open the package, hoping beyond hope. My fierce bosoms heaved as I saw what I had long awaited…
Ooh, I waaant. I do review ARCs! I have a LibraryThing account (Cynara) with seven ARCs reviewed.
Of course I"d love a copy….
Cross my heart and hope to throb, heave, sigh, shudder, or whatever the descriptive word of the day might be—if I get an ARC, I will read and review!
Thanks in advance if I’m picked! :D
Please send this former English major/ Creative Writing minor an ARC.
Ha! Now you know that you’ll have well-written review!
WANT!!!!!!!
Many congrats!!
Winning an ARC would be a great way to start off the new year.
I’d love to read it !!!
Count me in !
I’m so excited, I’m coming out from the shadows of lurkdom.
I think my high-pitched squees have lured all the neighborhood dogs to the door.
I would lurrrrrve to review your book (can I use that word since it’s trademarked?).
Snowed in…Need more books….especially of the lusty variety.
Do I stand a snowball’s chance in hell after ~199 previous, and somewhat more pithy, responses to the challenge?
You send, I’ll review. Promise.
why33? Why on this night of all other nights… Oh wait… There’s only 4 of those.
I want one! My spam word is before88. I want mine BEFORE everyone else!
Eet’s a race! Eet’s a race! Ah hope ah ween! Ah hope ah ween!
I would love a copy!!
PLEASE pick me! This is the book release I am most excited about this year. I’ll write a review, I promise.
Here’s hoping! :) Do reviewers from middle-of-nowhere Atlantic count?
Squee now, review later! Oooooooh, I would love to win!
I’ve been lurking for a few months (I get the blog feed on LiveJournal), but you’ve forced me out of the woodwork with an offer too tempting to refuse. I cannot wait to read this book :D
i want to be one of those people who really win at SBTB.. !
pretty please? i can has book?
probably not, but hope springs eternal.
;)
I want it! I want it! I want it!
the cover of this book is wonderful; heaving bosoms,the promise of forbisdden sex…...the distant rustling of crinoline imagined. Yes, I would like to read this book and leave it laying around to scandalize my daughters and their husbands!
I’d love to win a copy of your book. I might even read it in public!
(And I’d definitely post a review!)
So excited for this! And if I don’t win, I will definitely buy. Rare for me these days, but hey, you guys are so smart and cool and Sarah loves my glasses. Which will be employed in the reading of the book, actually.
Count me in, please! :)
I love all contests that ship internationally :). And what a nice way to start the new year.
That’s one of the best ARC cover designs I’ve seen, and I’ve seen quite a few of them lately. Kudos to the printer!
Good heavens, 215+ comments so far and no end in sight. I’m thrilled for the SBs and wish you many printings.
I want, I want!!! I will devour, and then with your permission, give the copy away on my blog!
Oh, hit me with it, babies! ARC me good. :)
Wow, look at all the responses! Well its worth it for sure.
Squee!!!! Add me too please!
I’d love a copy! Even if I don’t get one, I’m going out to buy one for myself. :)
(spamfilter: good25. Good chances of winning one, or good luck, maybe?)
Random comment!
If I’m lucky enough to bet picked to win an Arc, I promise to buy a final copy.
Congratulations on the book.
Oh man, I want this!
Well, I’m trying to do 50 books this year, across lots of genres, so I’d love to add this to the list :)
Ooooh, me please! (Even though I doubt I have much of a chance, heh)
spamword is order68. Can’t I order a 69 instead? ...I mean, uh…
Pick me! I’d love to read it. Congrats!
Ooohh!! In my whole life I’ve never even touched and ARC. This is my big chance…pick me pick me pick me.
Really, thanks for the chance for the possible preview.
Hey this book sounds like some serious kick a*s!!
I’ve been on a smart girl crusade all year and i’d love to read this book. Will definitely review it on my blog.
After being snowed in and still managing to make a videomo, all by myself (nearly, there were a few survivors of the snowy roads), not to mention figuring out how to make music that would be legal (yay for music mixing programs). I think I should totally be in the running to read the most delightful ARC in existence. Ooohhh how thrilling, ARCs!
I am soooo buying this book if I don’t win an ARC. This is just the funniest title I’ve seen and I have to add this one to my collection. Oh, I will happily review it as well (since I have finished my current review books)
I’m eating a ham sandwich and have nothing clever to say.
Please add me to the draw - I can’t wait to read this!
My bosom is heaving at the thought of owning my first ARC, especially this book! Send me a copy and some smelling salts, I’ll loosen my bustle and give you an honest, critical review!
Me me me me me…and I want to write a review of something when the section goes up….
I would love to be entered!
I’ve been reading lot’s of parnormal romance in the hopes of meeting my craving for knights in shining armour without decreasing my IQ. I’d love to check out this book and review it on Gather and AC.
It took about 2 minutes for my scroll bar to fully load so I could scroll down to the bottom. :D
Not that I ever win these things, but still….
I want a copy! I’m capable of the most awesome SQUEE!!! you’ll ever hear, I promise!
I can’t wait to read this book—ARC or no.
Yippee!! It’s so exciting to think that it’s already in proper papery form!
me, me!! i’d LOVE to read and review this. congrats on finishing the book!
Count me in! I would love to get my hands on this beauty.
Ooo a Smart Bitch ARC, how it is coveted! :D I’d be happy to read and send you a review (and hey even post review on my blog!) Congrats again on the book!
Yikes…...fantastic…...count me in! :)
Pleeeeease give me a copy because my brain has gone to sludge over the holidays and at present I have no better defence for my reading habits than… “because I like them okay”. Can’t wait to read the book.
Me memememememe! PLEASE????
My spam word is great31. I’ll leave 31 great reviews :)
Heaving Bosoms? Want. The ARC, that is.
Comment made. ARC now please?
Do want!
So excited. Will leave comments whether or not I win an ARC.
I’m random. Pick me!
I’d love to read an advance copy!
Oh, my… I’d love to read this early! Please enter me :)
Excellent! I want to read this one (as an ARC or when it hits shelves) and then pass it around to all my friends who don’t like to read romance novels. So yeah. PICK ME PICK ME !!!11!!one!!!1!!!!eleventy!!!
Jessica Anderson, I voted for you! If you folks didn’t click on her I Can Has Cheeseburger link, run, don’t walk. Right now! http://mine.icanhascheezburger.com/view.aspx?ciid=3038602

I’m all aflutter with desire over this. Count me in, please!
Been trying to leave my ‘Count me in!’ comment all morning—maybe fifth time’s a charm?
This will be epic! I want one!
I can’t wait to read this! ARC me up! (I’m still buying it, for me, for friends…maybe some strangers…)
W00000t! Congratulations on the awesome coolness of getting the book out!
Even if I don’t get one of the fabulous ARCs, I will breathlessly anticipate reading what other folks have to say. *grin*
JD
Pick me. Choose me. Love me. (Channeling Meredith Grey).
I’d love the chance to read and review the new book! I’m looking forward to reading the final result as well!
Congrats, guys! And count me in!
I’m doing graduate work on the intersections of orality (cough, cough), genre fiction (especially romance), and the internets. ARC a poor grad student out?
Ohh, ohh, pick me! You won’t regret it! Train them while they’re still suspectible!
I could really use some red hot reads right now up here in the great white north. I guarantee a honest opinion and all the sweaty details.
I would LOVE to get a copy of this. Methinks it could be a good source for my thesis.
Come on random number generator!!! Love me for once or I shall use more exclamation points than you can stand!!!
Me, me, me, me, me!!!!!!!
I WANT I WANT I WANT!!!!
Pretttttty please?
I have my fingers and toes crossed, as do all my family and friends. So please pick me magic random number generator.
Will the SBs be snarking their own cover?
Goodness - everyone wants this book!
So do I.
:-D
I would love to be considered for the free ARC if I am not too late. It has been a long first day back to school and this would go a long way towards cheering me up! :)

Added to which, pronunciations have changed over time: witness some of Shakespeare’s rhymes. When he wrote them, the words sounded the same, but now one or both words are said differently.>

I’m from the US and hear it pronounced mostly to be an assonance with “could” or “would”, but have also heard it pronounced as “booze ‘em”.
Wow, is there still time for me to enter? I can count the number of romances I’ve read on one hand, but it doesn’t mean I wouldn’t enjoy the book any less than I enjoy the site…
random comment! choose me! although i wont be here to recieve it, i’ll have to get my mom to mail it to me in Israel :-D
i wannnnnt!
Am I too late? Oooh, shiny ARC! WANT!! :-)
My verification is perform33: I shall perform 33 cartwheels if I win. :-)
I really, really NEED this book. ‘Cause I’m having the Official post-holiday/pre-PMS/I-am-REALLY-sick-dealing-with-crazy-relatives blues.
I’d love an ARC and I’d be happy to do a review!
Oh oh oh! pick me! Pick me…pullllease. :)

Anyone else impressed at just how many people must read this blog?! Don’t normally see quite so many comments on a thread!
I have already pre-ordered one from Amazon in the UK…. and moreover, should the Randomizer pick me, I will not cancel my pre-order but lovingly compare the before and afters! :D
Attempts to woo the Random Number Generator are no doubt futile, but I can’t help myself.
I could use this book; my knowledge of romance novels is virtually non-existent.
I spent last night watching all the videomos and they really made me excited for this book!
Want! Tried to comment 138 comments ago, but it wouldn’t let me post for some reason!
Ladies, you are the best! Not only entertaining but generous. It would be lovely if the ARC goddesses happened to find me worthy ...
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh….free stuff, I hope I win!
Baby needs a new book…. come on random number generator
Winning this would so cure my back to school blues. Failing that I plan to resort to chocolate.
Lay it on me, babies! It would give me something to do beside whinge and pout on these long, cold Illinois nights.
Book me, Bitches!
I’d luuurrrvvvee to get an ARC! So, ARC me please…and thank you!
I would love a copy of your ARC.
I would love one!
