HEIST SOCIETY - Ally Carter
SOMETHING, MAYBE - Elizabeth Scott
FALLEN - Lauren Kate
HUSH, HUSH - Becca Fitzpatrick

* Leave a comment below, telling me what book you would recommend I get to read next and rebuild my book piles.
* Post about this contest on twitter, facebook, myspace or on your blog.
* Post the TRANCE countdown widget on your blog.
* Take the DEATH BY DENIM quiz created by 'Paramorebud' and tell me your score.

Each of these will earn you one entry. The winner will be chosen by random drawing on Wednesday, March 31. Apologies to my overseas readers, but since most of these books are hardcover and thus expensive to send, this contest is open to continental US/Canada readers only.
