End of the World Giveaway Hop
Which books would you save
if the world was coming to an end?
There are a few books that do jump to my mind that I would grab. Who am I kidding? I would try to save boxfuls. I would save my Mary Stewart books and my Trixie Belden collection (I have up to book 38!) I would grab my Jayne Ann Krentz first edition Guinevere Jones series written as Jayne Castle and my Elizabeth Peters Vicky Bliss series… I could keep going and if the end of the world TYPE of disaster, cause it would really depend on the end wouldn’t it, I would save as many as possible! lol I love my books.
So, I’m going with the spirit of End of the World and giving away a book about the end of civilization as we know it….

The Queen of Tarts
Sounds cheesy probably, but I’d save Pride and Prejudice. Or maybe all of Austen’s books since there aren’t that many!
Hmmm. I would probably save Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows…
Flat-Out Love
the harry potter books
I totally want Shatter Me! 🙂
I’m doing this hop too (and the Junco site) and I’d save my first edition Vampire Chronicle books. I have three, all of them except Interview with a Vampire. i started reading Anne Rice with The Witching Hour back when that first came out…and I read my way through everything she ever wrote. It’s been a long time since I picked up an Anne Rice book, but Lestat is one of my all time favorite characters.
I was considering getting a portable solar panel kit so that I can charge my nook and not lose 900 books in case a huge disaster happened. If I only had a chance to save one, it would be The Passage by Justin Cronin. The book is also about the end of the world and at 784 pages, big enough to keep me occupied for a while. I highly recommend it. Truthfully, the idea of not having access to books even for a day fills me with anxiety. I will get that solar kit!
What a great idea! I’ll check into that too and The Passage. Thanks for the recommendation.

I would bring Little Women by Louisa May Alcott it’s one of my favorite books and I reccomend Tui Sutherland’s Avatar series!!
I love this book and already own it but was hopping thru and became a new follower
I would save the passage and the twelve by Justin Cronin 🙂
I would do what I could to save my Kindle, 🙂 , but I would try and save as many of my Sherrilyn Kenyon Books that I could . I can’t choose just one its impossible .
I’d try to save Catching Fire. I think it would inspire me to survive against all odds and was my favorite book out of the three. 😀
I’d save The Catcher in the Rye because it’s one of those book I grew up with that I hold dear to my heart.
I would save The Vampire Lestat by Anne Rice.
I’d save the complete stories of Sherlock Holmes 🙂
If I had to choose one book, I think I’d grab my husband’s complete works of William Shakespeare. It contains some old favorites, along with some that I’ve never read!
I’d save the Lux series!
Too many books to choose from, I’ll just grab my kindle and save them all!
I forbid the world to end!! I have way too many books on my TBR list!!
Merry Book-mas to one and all!

One of my favorite post-apocalyptic books is Poison Princess. Thanks and Happy Holidays!
The Harry Potter series
I would try to save my Mercy Thompson series first, but then I would go for all my other books. It’s too hard to just save one book. I would just bring my iPad, but the battery would die and then I’d be without ANY books.
I would save Pride and Prejudice.
I would really want to save a series and that would be either The Hunger Games trilogy(but I could survive with the first book ;)) or Kate Daniels series or Dark Days series.
Thanks for the great giveaway!
I don’t have a favorite to save because most books are favorites to me, so I would just grab the biggest one.
Happy Holidays!

I highly recommend “The Pledge”. This is like the second dystopian book I read and after reading it I was hooked on the genre!!
