Hope you brought your water wings. There's an undertow.

Yes, it's time for the moment you've all been waiting for: the moment where I give away the first ARC of One Salt Sea, the fifth book in the October Daye series. Today seems like a good day to open the contest, being as it's the summer solstice and all. Longest day of the year means free stuff for somebody! So...

Who wants to win an ARC? About what I figured. I'll have some more effort-intensive contests in a little bit, but first up, it's our old favorite, the random drawing. To enter, please do the following:

1) Leave a comment on this entry. Leave it as a comment on the entry, please, not on someone else's comment. Comments left on other comments cannot win.

2) That's all.

Please don't comment going "pick me, pick me," if you could be so kind. I don't pick anyone. The random number generator picks the winner, and it is a cruel mistress which has never yet picked a comment containing "pick me." Instead, why not tell me why you're excited about this book? I'd really love to know.

I will choose a winner at 2PM PST on Friday, June 24th.

Game on!

ETA: Y'all, please remember that I won't answer questions posed on a random number giveaway post. It messes up my ability to cleanly locate a winner, and that just makes things frustrating for everyone.

I would love to get an ARC because:
1) It is a new Toby Daye book!
2) Am in Canada and our bookstores don't get shipments sent off until 2-3 weeks after the US release date - my local independent bookstore is now trained to carry all the books under both names and had pre ordered Deadline, but it did not get shipped to them until June 10. Would love to beat the system once!!
3) Want to know more about Amandine - the little glimpses we have had so far are so tantalizing...
4) Water. Mer people. Selkies. What is not to love? (perhaps there is something to this astrology stuff - I'm a Pisces)
5) They keep getting better and better and I keep getting more invested so need a fix!
Whether I get an ARC or not, thanks so much for writing them. We all appreciate it!
