Now here's a giveaway I'm sure will generate some excitement. Hachette has been generous enough to allow me three giveaway copies of...Stephanie Meyer's The Host! Please note that there is one additional rule with this one. You must leave the title of your favorite science fiction book in your first comment.
Here's a link to the Reading Group Guide. From Publishers Weekly:
"In this tantalizing SF thriller, planet-hopping parasites are inserting their silvery centipede selves into human brains, curing cancer, eliminating war and turning Earth into paradise. But some people want Earth back, warts and all, especially Melanie Stryder, who refuses to surrender, even after being captured in Chicago and becoming a host for a soul called Wanderer. Melanie uses her surviving brain cells to persuade Wanderer to help search for her loved ones in the Arizona desert. When the pair find Melanie's brother and her boyfriend in a hidden rebel cell led by her uncle, Wanderer is at first hated. Once the rebels accept Wanderer, whom they dub Wanda, Wanda's whole perspective on humanity changes. While the straightforward narrative is short on detail about the invasion and its stunning aftermath, it shines with romantic intrigue, especially when a love triangle (or quadrangle?!) develops for Wanda/Melanie."
The rules: Enter by leaving a comment to this post with your email (if I can't contact you, you can't win). This first comment must list the title of your favorite science fiction book. (Vampire and other related subjects count.) You can gain additional entries by leaving separate comments letting me know that you're a follower or have posted a link to the giveaway on your site. The deadline to enter is 11:59pm Pacific on May 22. Winners will be selected at random. Since this is from Hachette the winners must have mailing addresses in the US or Canada; no PO Boxes.
