Competitions: August’s Blind Date With A Book
I hope everyone is enjoying their August. It’s time for this month’s Blind Date With A Book.
It is very easy to judge a book by its cover. I know I do it. The cover is the thing that initially catches our eye in the book shop. It can sometimes completely sell the book or make you walk by it without giving it a chance. Our competition is one with a twist. It’s your chance to win a blind date with a book.
I’m not going to reveal what the title of this month’s book is nor will I reveal the cover. All I will reveal is that the themes include ‘secrets, lies, murder mystery and betrayal.
How to enter:
Comment on this post with your name by the closing date of Tuesday 30th August 2016 at 23.59. A winner will be chosen at random from the entries and announced on the Novel Kicks blog on Wednesday 31st August 2016.
UK only. Winner will also be contacted via e-mail.
Good Luck.

I'm Laura. I started Novel Kicks back in 2009 as I wanted a place to discuss books and writing - two loves of my life. As someone who has anxiety, these two things give me, and I am sure countless others, a much needed escape.
There is a monthly book club, writing exercises, prompts, reviews, author interviews, competitions and guest posts. I cover many genres and I hope there is something for everyone.
I grew up by the sea in Dorset and currently live in Poole with my husband, Chris and three cats. I love writing and have a BA (Hons) in Creative Writing from Falmouth University. I am writing my first book. If only I could stop pressing delete. Chris has threatened to stop it from working. Haha.
I have always loved creative writing since I was in first school and would very much like to meet my teacher, Miss Sayers, to say thank you for all the encouragement she gave me then.
When not writing, I love reading, cats, Disney, singing (I can't sing but this doesn't stop me,) and falling into a good TV show or film. If I could step into any fictional world, it would be amongst the characters in ABC's Once Upon a Time.
I love reading many genres and discovering new authors.

I won last month so pretty sure I won’t win this one but hey, in for a penny and all that jazz, thanks for my last book Laura, was lovely to read something completely new and not part of my usual genre of literature!
Need to try reading something other than romances!! Covers get me every time so I love this idea!
I’ve been reading a lot of Fantasy fiction recently, I think I could do with a good murder mystery! We did the blind date with a book thing at work, it was great fun but also really hard coming up with the ad for the books (^^)
I’ve only just found your website and I love it. I love the idea of this competition, sounds like I would really enjoy the book you describe. Thanks for the chance 🙂
Welcome to Novel Kicks. I’m pleased you like it. Good luck. 🙂
This one sounds right up my street, Murder, mystery and secrets I would love a chance to see what the book is.
