Russo-Biblio-Extravaganza Giveaway- 3 *signed* copies of RUSSIAN WINTER

As part of November's Russo-Biblio-Extravaganza month of Russian books and reading, I picked up THREE SIGNED COPIES of Daphne Kalotay's new novel RUSSIAN WINTER to give away.

RUSSIAN WINTER is an exciting new novel about a Russian ballerina, her jewelry collection and her collection of memories, memories that she lingers over one by one as she auctions off her precious jewels, collected over a lifetime. It goes back and forth through time and has garnered many rave reviews.

I have three copies to give away to three lucky winners. Here are the rules:
  1. This giveaway is open the U.S. only.
  2. To enter, leave a comment here with your email address. No email address, no entry- no exceptions.
  3. Link to the giveaway on your blog, Facebook or Twitter and leave me the link here for two extra entries each.
  4. Followers old and new get two extra entries.
  5. The contest is open until midnight EST November 30. I will select the winners with Random.org. You have the whole month to enter. I will contact the winners sometime the following weekend; each winner will have 48 hours to respond with a US mailing address. If I don't hear back in 48 hours I will select another winner.
BiblioSue reviewed Russian Winter here.
See She Is Too Fond of Books' review here.
Boston Book Bums reviewed it, too. 
    If you have reviewed the book and would like me to link to it on this post, leave it in the comments even if you don't want to enter the giveaway and I will update the post periodically with your reviews.
    Good luck!

    How perfect for your theme...there's nothing like Russian writers espcially as Winter approaches. Literally. Thank you for the opportunity to win, how very generous of you to give away three copies! (Don't you have people on your Christmas list who'd love them? :)
