Hi, Mariana :) I tried to buy a copy at that store (my ARC got lost), but it only accepts credit cards from USA or Canada... But I just discovered that BN.com is already selling the book, so I cancelled my Amazon order, and ordered it in BN, choosing priority international mail :) I cannot wait a minute longer, auch...
I can't wait to read this story! I've been DYING since Clay's story. You can't crank them out fast enough for me to read.
So I entered the contest and here's my link:

The countdown is on!!!! I haven't entered your comp but I did blog about you!!! Roll on next week because this one is going straight to the top of my tbr pile!!!

I love this contest! A chance for book money AND content for my flippin' blog. Nalini, you are a genius. And a wonderful writer too!

Ciara's Hostage to Pleasure Post
Wow, this is really fun! I found this on Amanda Ashby's page, and she was saying you're from NZ too! Yay, go kiwis! I get really, really excited when I see fellow NZers or even Aussies on the blogs- they're just so rare! I hail from Auckland but I'm at Otago Uni at the moment. (Hehe, I've always wanted to say that whole 'I hail from' thing!) I was looking at your website, and it is so awesome! You are so lucky that you get to travel to so many places around the world, and write awesome stories- it sounds like a dream life. =) I think I'm ranting now, so I'll just say that I blogged about this contest here:
http://teenreaderwatcherlistener.blogspot.com/2008/09/nalini-singhs-hostage-to-pleasure.html
Thanks so much for reading this really long comment- I sort of go off on a tangent sometimes, whoops!
Hope you have an awesome day!
