It's My Birthday Week: Today I'm giving away The Winner's Curse by Marie Rutkoski!!

Hello guys!

To continue with my birthday celebrations, today I'm giving away yet another book and this one is another of those books that has really made a big impression on my this year!

All the giveaways are of course international, everyone is welcome!





The Winner's Curse was on of my first 5 stars and author discoveries of the year. The writing in this book is absolutely gorgeous, and I loved the world building of it, I had seen it as fantasy, but I think the best to describe it is as historical fantasy. Marie Rutkoski has created her own unique world with two kingdoms that can remind us of other ancient history civilizations, the Valorians are for me a mix of Romans & Spartans (because of their focus on the military) and the Herrans that could be more a mix of Greece and Cartago. All the details and the richness of the world she created is one of my favourite parts of the book! Also, this was one of hell of cruel book for my heart, the romance is a slow burn and forbidden and just amazing! For more of my ramblings, you can read my review HERE.

And if you want to win a paperback copy of this book, enter the rafflecopter below!!

  1. Pili I've been away too long. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! And you're so sweet to be doing this give away. Somehow, despite the hype and the fact that Mari got to this one, I still haven't read it. My best birthday gift is my phone. I know, not all that creative, but I love technology and I always spend ages researching exactly what new piece of tech I need. :p

  5. A city bicycle I got from my dad 3 years ago! I love bicycling around town so much with my friends especially during sunsets and night times. I got kind of depressed when my previous bicycle developed some kind of defect because of oldness, it was the very first bike I rode since I was 12. So yeah thankfully my dad had it replaced 2 months after.
