Thirteen Reasons Why Giveaway!

To celebrate the paperback release (finally!) of Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher, and to announce the start of the 13RW Project, Big Honcho Media is offering TWO (2) winners the chance to win a paperback copy of this marvelous book! Here's a bit about the book:

Thirteen Reasons Why is the story of a girl named Hannah Baker who takes her own life. But before she does, she records several cassette tapes explaining why and sends them to the people she feels pushed her toward that decision. The story is told from the point of view of Clay Jensen who spends the night crisscrossing his town with Hannah’s voice as his guide. He becomes a first-hand witness to Hannah’s pain, and learns the truth about himself—a truth he never wanted to face.

The anti-bullying anthem was published in hardcover in October 2007 by Razorbill, and quickly became a word-of-mouth favorite among teenaged readers with fans claiming, “This book changed my life.” The novel has been on the New York Times children’s hardcover bestseller list for 65 weeks, foreign rights have been sold into 30 countries and it has been acquired by Universal Pictures and will star Selena Gomez.

Penguin launched the 13RW Project at www.13RWProject.com as a place for fans of Thirteen Reasons Why to record their thoughts, stories, videos and photos relating to the book, and to view what other readers from all across the country have shared. Each review is logged on a map to show the many locations that viewers are posting from, and all content is shareable through Facebook and Twitter.

If you've read this book, or it has affected your life or the lives of those you know, I recommend that you check out the website and maybe even share your own story. To enter the giveaway, please fill out the form below. This giveaway is open to US only, and ends Friday, July 1, 2011. Good luck!
