Winners of McCarty Griffin Ebook Giveaway!

Hey everyone! :D

Sorry I didn't have this posted yesterday, but I went and saw The Green Lantern (finally!) and it was awesome! :D 

There weren't very many entries for this giveaway, and I'm guessing it's because people don't like entering for Ebooks as much as they do for hard copies of books. Some people might just not have any way to read them though, so I just wanted to say that if you have a computer you can read ebooks. I know that you can download Nook, Kindle, PDF, and Adobe Digital Editions for your computer, so as long as you have a computer...you CAN download and read ebooks. I just thought I'd say that so that people who didn't know about it before can. :)


Now, the winners of this giveaway were:

Skyki
Diana
Rachel Leigh

Keep your eyes open for an email from me! I'll be sending Smashwords codes right to your email, so check your junk folder to be sure that you get it. If you don't receive an email from me, you can email me at ambiepie_6@hotmail.com and I'll send you the codes as soon as I can. :)

If you entered the giveaway, but aren't one of the winners, keep your eyes open for an email. If I fail to hear back from one or more of the winners, you might just get lucky!

Thanks for entering this giveaway, and I hope that everyone is enjoying the weather, wherever they are...surprisingly it's not too bad where I am today. :P 

Happy Reading!!!

Review: Eon by Alison Goodman

Source: Won in a giveaway from The Moody Teenager
Publisher: Viking Juvenile
Release Date: Already Released

I won this book in a giveaway a while back, and I didn't actually pick it up until I was contacted about receiving an ARC copy of the second book, Eona. This was one of those books with a cover that just didn't really wow me, and it was one that I hadn't heard of, so I didn't really think twice about letting it sit on my shelf, but I am so glad that Penguin Canada contacted me about Eona because it got me to pick up Eon, and it was amazing!

I absolutely love dragons, and I wish that I had actually looked at Eon earlier because I was definitely missing out! Alison has created an amazing universe in this series, and it comes with a vast history. I loved learning more about Eon's world, it was amazing and incredibly fascinating! If you've heard of this book, I'm sure you've also heard of the fact that Eon is actually Eona, a girl pretending to be a boy. I kinda loved that she was a girl pretending to be a boy, but I loved it even more when she just let herself be who she actually was. :)

Since I've professed my love for dragons, I'm sure you can already tell that I loved that part of this book. I loved how Eon had to go into the spirit world to see the dragons, the colours and the dragons' appearances were described beautifully and I loved those parts! I also loved the characters. Eon, or should I say Eona, was a complex character and I loved reading about her. The whole book is packed full of action, and political strife, but it's also a story about Eona finding out who she is, and that journey to self-discovery was wonderful. Lady Dela, and Ryko were some of my other favourite characters, as was Prince Kygo.

Eon was an amazing story! If you love dragons like I do, I'm sure you'll love it! Also, the history of this book is splendid, it was addictive, and I constantly wanted to know more!

Do you like dragons?
Do you like magic?
Do you like magic and dragons?

Well, then this is THE book for YOU! ;)

haha Has anyone else read Eon or are you thinking about reading it now? :)

Happy Reading!!!
