So, you're a blogger and you wanna review Still Sucks to Be Me…
So I’ve got this big shiny box full of ARCs of Still Sucks to Be Me. Some of them are earmarked for my fellow author peeps. And there’s a few I’m reserving for a special fans-only contest (coming probably in March), but some need to go out to book bloggers. I’d started a list but then lost it in The Great Computer Transfer of ‘09 (read: I got a new MacBook for Christmas, but it didn’t like my old e-mails). So…I thought I’d try something I’ve seen a lot of other authors do…
If you’re a book blogger / reviewer and you’d like an ARC of Still Sucks to Be Me to review, here’s what you gotta do…send me an email at kim @ kimberlypauley.com (remove spaces) or fill out the contact form and tell me:
- Your name
- Your blog / site URL
- Link to your review of the first book (Sucks to Be Me)
- Anything else you’d like to tell me (like why YOU should get an advance copy)
I’ve got a limited supply, though my publisher will also be sending some out.
As an added thing…remember back when Sucks to Be Me came out and I had an online launch party where I featured other authors and their books for two weeks? And gave prizes? Well, this year I’m planning something similar, but I want to feature book bloggers / reviewers…so anyone I send out an ARC to, I’m gonna be interviewing you too and featuring you on my blog during the month of May. 
UPDATE: This is basically ongoing until I run out of ARCs…(and I just got some more…)

I have a blog, but I don’t really review books, every once and a while I’ll talk about a book I’ve read and how much I liked it or didnt like it, but, I guess that doesn’t count
Oh well, I’ll just have to wait until the fan contest in March 
So exctied for SSTBM
Hi Kimberly,
You signed my copy of Sucks to be Me at ALA in Chicago! Here’s a link to my blog post about it.

You even commented! It circulates nicely at my middle school. I know fans will be thrilled to read Still Sucks…

Oh good! Did you email me about getting a Still Sucks ARC yet???
Darn it! Can’t believe I missed out. Oh well maybe next time?

You’re not too late
In fact, I just got another box of ARCs in the mail. Just follow the instructions above… 
Ooh… I want one. To make up for my lameness in not keeping up with your activities related to the new book, I pre-ordered the hardcover version from Amazon.com… yet I don’t want to wait for May to read it.
And darn my lameness again, I didn’t think about using a link to Amazon from your website… I could have given you a big commission since I didn’t just buy your book, I bought a huge raft of other books around the same time.
I’m going to put a note on my monitor when I get home to start out at YA Books Central from now on when I get bitten by the Amazon bug… which happens all too frequently of late.
Anyway, I did a post on the Sucks to be Me Launch party
http://blogs.delphiforums.com/n/blogs/blog.aspx?nav=main&webtag=dragonviews&entry=20 (which was a lot of fun to write) and, after I finally got the book in my hot little hands, I wrote what I still think is one of my best ever reviews, http://blogs.delphiforums.com/n/blogs/blog.aspx?nav=main&webtag=dragonviews&entry=29 which was lots more fun to write than most of my reviews.
Also, if I know about the launch party for Still Sucks to be Me, I’ll join in on that too.
Note to self: Stop being a lame Dragoness and mail a SASE to Kim for the Still Sucks to be Me loot. I’m away right now, but intend to see to this when I get home from my vacation.
Hey Lady D! Of course! Is your address still the same?
