It's Official ... Up For Grabs is moving!!
The response to the new site in the last 24 hours has been very, very positive and so Up For Grabs will be moving to WP. The official move date is 9/1/08.
New site link: Up For Grabs
Until then I will post August giveaways at both sites and September giveaways only at the WP site.
I know it's a pain to update links, blog rolls and readers and for this I apologize but the move is a good thing. Because I'm using pages at WP and not standard blog posts you will have to subscribe to the Comments feed for each giveaway page to receive updates. It's the only solution I could come up with. If you're experienced WP user and have a better idea please let me know though I'm not inclined to move from pages to posts.

It's Your Turn to Let Me Know...
I need you all to weigh in and help me make a decision. This site exists because you all support it so your thoughts and opinions matter to me. No Up For Grabs isn't disappearing I'm staying right here kind of. I'm committed to this site just not my web host. And that's where you all come in. My frustration level with Blogger is growing daily after having moved my personal book blog, The Printed Page, and starting a book club and ARC blog over at WordPress. It may be that Blogger is experiencing some growing pains right now and that I don't need. I've been using Blogger in Draft and the old Blogger and neither fit where I'm at with this site.
Wordpress has one feature that would, I feel, would enhance Up For Grabs and definitely make managing the site easier. The big draw to WP for this site is the Pages feature. Each month would have it's own page for giveaway listings. Instead of a blog post you would select the appropriate monthly page. Posting comments is much easier and more efficient. I don't think that pages have RSS feeds so you wouldn't be able to get updates that way which is a drawback but one I can't do much about if Up For Grabs relocates.
New site link is Up For Grabs (this is the wordpress link)
If all goes as planned there may be a new home for Up For Grabs soon.
Please leave your comments, suggestions, concerns and opinions either here or over at the new site.
Take care,
Marcia

Book Giveaway...Before I Wake: A Novel by Robert J. Wiersema
New Up For Grabs book giveaway:
Rober J. Wiersema
St. Martin's Press, 2007 (Hardback, not an ARC)
320 pages
I received this book from Reading Group Gold at St. Martin's Press
From Amazon: In this impressive debut, Wiersema crafts an intelligent, contemplative supernatural thriller replete with well-rounded characters, artless dialogue and a plot that, while imbued with the unexplained, develops organically, revealing its secrets at just the right pace. In the novel's opening pages, three-year-old Sherry Barrett, an only child, is rendered comatose in a hit and run accident. What follows could have been a typical thriller full of cartoonish villains and escalating peril; it also could have been a treacly fairy tale about God's miraculous healing power. Happily, Wiersema steers clear of these well-traveled roads and, by way of multiple first-person narratives, tells an engrossing story of flawed but genuinely good people who must bear up under the stress of loss, betrayal, unwarranted miracles and unconventional spiritual warfare. Particularly well-imagined is the purgatory of sorts that Henry, the truck driver, must endure after he fails to come forward after the accident. Reminiscent of Wim Wenders's film Wings of Desire, Henry's nature, longings and environs paint a poignant picture of souls in need of redemption. While some readers may find one of the novel's final revelations less original than the rest of the story, Wiersema gets nearly everything else right, and the result is an engaging, emotionally resonant read.
Contest details:
1 ~ leave a comment if you'd like to be entered in the drawing
2 ~ please be willing to pay it forward by sharing it with someone else
3 ~ please have a US or Canadian mailing address
4 ~ entry deadline: Sunday, 8/10. Winner posted Monday, 8/11
Bonus round:
1 ~ if you win this book and have linked back to either this particular giveaway or the Up For Grabs site itself I will include a $15 Amazon gift card. Please include the link in your comment.
