Holiday Giveaway, Part One

Today the Advent season starts. The smell of cookies and burning candles is what I associated with this time of the year. And the child in me longs for snow or at least a thick layer of white frost – and a good book, a hot tea, and some quiet music in the background.

Well, we at Ylva can’t bring snow or white frost. Even the cookies would be difficult to manage. But lesbian fiction we can give you as well as some other book related stuff.

Advent_2014_1_EN

So, today we’re giving away one e-book copy each of Heart’s Surrender by Emma Weimann, Under a Falling Star by Jae, Bitter Fruit by Lois Cloarec Hart, and Barring Complications by Blythe Rippon.

And we also bring you one cap with the cover of Ana Matics The Return, one T-shirt with the cover of Bitter Fruit by Lois Cloarec Hart, one cap with the cover of Popcorn Love by KL Hughes, and one T-shirt with the cover of Popcorn Love.

Give Away_eng

If you want to participate in the giveaway, just leave a comment or send an e-mail to info@ylva-verlag.de. Please state clearly what item you would like to win.  The deadline for the giveaway is Tuesday 11.59 p.m. EST, which means 6 a.m. on Tuesday in Germany.

We’ll do the drawing on Tuesday and will then contact the winners. Recourse to the courts is excluded.

The best of luck and a wonderful Sunday wishes

    Here’s to a happy Sunday, first advent and Little Christmas as we used to call it in my childhood.

    If I happen to win, I would love a Popcorn Love tee. 🙂

    Happy holidays to everyone at Ylva! Too bad there will be no cookies to give out but I would happy to have a copy of Under A Falling Star by Jae. For that matter I would be more than happy with any of the ebooks being offered.

    happy Holidays everyone! If I win, I would like a copy of Barring Complications. Thanks!

    Those giveaways really put you in the mood. Awesome ideas!!! If I were to win, I guess I’d like to read Under A Falling Star, but any of these ebooks would do, honestly. And how about you give a popcorn Tee to a local shelter? Someone in need would get a great tee, I would get a great ebook and you would save on postage to France. It’s a win win win for everyone. Not that I wouldn’t want to wear the T, if I thought it could promote the author I would. But it’s the french countryside here. Mostly old people and not many who speak english. Hell, no one in my own family has been able to read my books cause they can’t. lol I just think it would be even more in the Christmas spirit. I currently have no jobs and no money but I have a house, t-shirts and caps while some don’t….

      Are you the author of ‘When the River Floww Out of It’s Bed’? Good book. If you are the author have you written anything else?

    There have so many excellent books released by your authors:-) If I’m lucky in having my name picked, I’d like to read Any of the books, apart from Barring Complications. I bought that one last month:-)

  62. cw December 3, 2014 at 03:30 - Reply

    Astrid, you YLVA and your authors are awesome. Your first novel Hearts Surrender was very good, everything JAE writes is incredible and Blthe Rippon’s Barring Complications was a great read. This is very generous giveaway and the books I’ve read by Lois Cloarec Hart were also very good. I don’t have Bitter Fruit so I would like to be entered for that one please. The hats and t-shirts are cool but give those to someone who will get better use of them.

    Thank you for what you and the awesome YLVA team are doing for your readers.
