    Awaken The Pleasure Palace Before Midnight, Crazy Nefertiti.

    My picture is comprised of an IMM post because my computer crashed/died/burned on me today, as did my ability to upload new pics. My mums laptop is a pain to edit on.

    Here is the post:

    I'm pretty darn proud of how clever my sentence turned out:

    Being polite to Hitler, Nigella bites Dracula in love. Check out the picture and post here.

    Nightshade would be my book of choice and I honestly have no preference on the swag. It all looks cool.

    My sentence is The Unidentified Grace Dust City, and I'll be emailing the picture since the lighting is terrible. Should I win, I would like Nightshade and probably bookmarks (especially the signed Body Finder) for swag.

    This was so much fun!!! I did two, but I could have spent all day trying to do this!!!!

    My sentences:
    1. Daddy Long-Legs, who gets the drumstick? Jane and the damned Mr. Roberts burned the dark half.

    2. My Fair Lady, let's elope on the beach.

    As for the books--It's hard to choose!!!--They all sound fantastic, I'd love any of them!!! But Nightshade might be my top pick, just because of the cover.

    I think the 3 pieces of swag I would want the most would be a Claire de Lune sticker
    A signed Tension of Opposites bookmark
    An Iron Fey Flyer

    Thanks again for the fun challenge!!!!

    Thought this was pretty clever:
    Fallen rebel angels deadly little secret, ruined the summoning.

    Picture:

    Fallen by Lauren Kate
