IF YOU WERE HERE + WINNER'S CHOICE! by Jen Lancaster


Winner Announced!
Liz!
This is so there is no confusion of who the winner is because I just so happen to have her profile picture! Congrats Liz! Please email me your full name, mailing address and your other book of choice by Jen Lancaster and I'll get you your ADVANCED READERS COPY of IF YOU WERE HERE and the other book as soon as I can!







Book: If You Were Here

Author: Jen Lancaster

Website: http://www.jennsylvania.com/

Winner Announced Here

This is one I know many of you have been waiting for, me included! Jen Lancaster’s debut FICTION! I know because of the generosity of Jen, many of you are here today. I owe her a lot because of the success of this giveaway so if you happen to pop on over here Jen, thank you, thank you, thank you! Maybe if I keep typing Jen Lancaster, Jen Lancaster, Jen Lancaster, her google alerts will explode and she’ll stop on over and comment, what do you say guys, how about if I make all of you just comment JEN LANCASTER for this one! Hahah. That’ll be good!

Anyway, the book today is IF YOU WERE HERE, by none other than … say it with me, JEN LANCASTER, memoirist-now-fiction writer, and I know you’re all dying to read it. It’s not even due out until MAY, and I’ve got a hot little copy RIGHT HERE that I promise to mail out early. One thing is, I do not know if this one will be in the grand prize lineup (sidenote, some others may also not be, but that’s a post for another day, along with another question – there are so many books—should we have two grand prize winners?)

Back to today’s book! Along with winning IF YOU WERE HERE, I’m also going to throw in another Jen Lancaster book because we all love her so much, and I think I’ll make it Winner’s Choice! So, whoever wins can tell me which other Jen book you’d like and I’ll send that one to you too.

Cool huh?

Do you want to know what IF YOU WERE HERE is about? Okay then, here goes:

Told in the uproariously entertaining voice readers have come to expect from Jen Lancaster, If You Were Here follows Amish-zombie-teen-romance author Mia and her husband Mac (and their pets) through the alternately frustrating, exciting, terrifying-but always funny-process of buying and renovating their first home in the Chicago suburbs that John Hughes's movies made famous. Along their harrowing renovation journey, Mia and Mac get caught up in various wars with the homeowners' association, meet some less-than-friendly neighbors, and are joined by a hilarious cast of supporting characters, including a celebutard ex- landlady. As they struggle to adapt to their new surroundings- with Mac taking on the renovations himself- Mia and Mac will discover if their marriage is strong enough to survive months of DIY renovations.

I love the fact that from page 4, Mia uses Jen’s trademark footnotes in her storytelling too! A classic!

You’ll love this book you guys!

And if you haven’t already checked out some of my archives with Jen, here’s a bunch – you’ll have to scroll through, but some of it’s pretty entertaining, like a video where I annoy her during her Pretty in Plaid book tour.

So to win, I’m making this so easy, comment, “JEN LANCASTER … (FILL IN THE BLANK).”




Miss ya Jen! So glad you're coming to Scottsdale / Phoenix!

*****
Please leave a comment, and all those who do will qualify to win IF YOU WERE HERE! I’ll draw the winner in a couple of days and I will post the winner’s name at the TOP of this post, in the highlighted area.


Come back and read about each book every day in March. Choose the books you'd like to win. Enter for any or ALL the books. Each entry will count as an entry toward the grand prize of winning ALL 31+ books at the end of the month. You can win the book of the day and still qualify to win ALL the books at the end of the month!


PLEASE be specific with your name in the comment section, and IF YOUR NAME is listed as the winner, you must email me at stephanieelliot@gmail.com in order to claim your prize. Email me with your full name and address so I can have your book(s) sent to you.


Thanks, and GOOD LUCK! And come back tomorrow to see what book I’ll be giving away then too!

I'm slightly embarrassed to say this, but I've never read one of Jen's books (although you have blogged about her so much)....I guess I never thought of her or remembered her name when I was browsing through new books to buy. Embarrassed! So really....any of her books sound great (I just checked out jennsylvania). I hope to win one of these days...you have such great taste in books...all ones I would love to read.

Thanks, michelle jagow

Jen Lancaster....the best accidental find ever! My son had to study for finals in middle school and fighting me tooth and nail. I took him to the book store to study thinking we would both keep our cool in a public place (pathetic right?). He had such an attitude I had to leave the table. While wandering around the store I noticed the cover to Such a Pretty Fat. I snatched it off the shelf, started reading and was belly laughing out loud. Seriously lightened up the mood for me. Finished within a day and went hunting for more of her books. I have read them all at this point and check her blog everyday.

Thx Jen for all the laughs!

Jen Lancaster is my absolute favorite author. The first book I read was Such a Pretty Fat and I was immediately hooked. I devour her books as soon as I get them and raved about her so much I've converted some of my friends into the Jen fan club!
And to demonstrate how much I love her, I usually donate all the books I've read to local libraries EXCEPT for my Jen Lancaster books!

It would be awesome to win her new book to add to my collection :)

Autumnn D said...

JEN LANCASTER is my absolute favorite author and the reason for much of my snarkiness. *LOVE* is all that I have for her work--Pretty in Plaid had me reminiscing of adolescent outfits long ago lost in the resale fray; Such a Pretty Fat motivated me to get my butt to the gym (and also to download her kick-A playlist). My Fair Lazy let me know that I wasn't alone in the freak-show-addicted/reality-TV-fan world. Anxiously awaiting her new book has made me stabby (favorite Jen-word) and I would LOVE to have an advance copy!! I mean...ya know, just whatev; I'm totally calm about this giveaway and all.

Annette said...

At the risk of sounding a little psycho-stalkerish, all through reading Such A Pretty Fat, I kept saying, "OMG! That's so me!" as I found we shared so many of the same quirks and views, attitudes, and behaviors. Jen Lancaster had me laughing aloud (which few books do). I'm currently reading Bitter Is The New Black and looking forward to her fiction debut---though the premise sounds A LOT like her experiences in a certain neighborhood she blogged about. Fiction or not, I'm sure it will be hilarious.

Sherry Bercu said...

Jen Lancaster and coffee what else gets your day off to a perfect start. Sometimes I find myself laughing all day long about her blog. I have all her books well except this one so if I am chosen I would like the other book to go to someone who has never read her work because everyone needs to read her books.

ChristineCet said...

First this is the most amazing book giveaway. You are not giving away 31 books this month...so many dailys are doubles. Kudos!
Jen Lancaster had me at 'fucktard'. probably not completely appropriate but seriously when I read that in reference to her babysitting I laughed my ass off. rang so true!

Jen Lancaster is an author I can rely on to make me laugh no matter how many times I read her books! Such a Pretty Fat or Bitter is the New Black are my favs

My favorite of her books is Bitter - I laughed out loud and my husband thought I was insane.

Jen Lancanster....I puffy heart you. I do. I love that's she has ventured out into fiction. I'm stingy with her books and I don't care, in my mind no one loves them as much as I do. If I don't win this one, it's okay it's on my order list so it will soon be in my greedy hands (insert evil laugh here)....

Tracy Lynn said...

Jen Lancaster cracks me up!!

Wullo said...

Jen Lancaster...and Fletch are so much like my husband and I, it's crazy! From the infatuation with infomercials and NEEDING that product, to the fear and worries that anything and everything bad can and will go wrong! I LOVE her books! :)

Jen Lancaster... is so incredibly funny. I "introduced" her to my book club. We read Pretty in Plaid and the ladies loved her book. They rushed right out to get the rest of her books.

Jen Lancaster and I would probably be bad influences on each other. Oh and since this will show up as Jen posting, I should probably say Jen Sharp here at least for more specificity.

is so funny. I cry from laughing often when reading her books.
