I will post this on my not very popular blog.
When the book comes out I will buy it, read it all in one sitting without stopping, then shove in my friends faces and tell them that they have to read it. I will also tell everyone on my horse games I play that they have to read it. I will also go on my schools morning announcements and tell the whole school to read it and visit canterwoodcrest.com

(Emily and Aladdin4ever!@!)HIIIII!!!!! For the release for initiation, (I do this every book) I will order it on my kindle, wake up on January 3rd at 12 A.M. and read the book till I have to go to school. (5:30 A.M.) Then I talk with my friends, and we will have a sleepover talking about the book, and ask for the paper back book for my bday (January 26th) and my bday sleepover will be themed by initiation. I next will reread the book till I can recite the first three chapters. (I can with every book, and bought a signed copy of city secrets on ebay) I REALLY WANT TO WIN!

When a new book comes out, I usually reread all the other books just for fun, then I start reading the book. Once I finish, I carry it with me nearly everywhere and keep rereading it until I've memorized lines of it. I set "Initiation is coming out on Jan 3rd!" as my status =) Email ~ toboggan.bella@gmail.com

What I would do to celebrate is get my favorite kind of icecream and COFFEE/TEA:)Would lock myself in my room and read the whole book.And freak out that I got a free book from Jessica Burkhart<3<3:):)!!!!My e-mail is ospiering@yahoo.com!!!

Sophie said...

When Initiation comes out, I will follow the exact routine I follow for each new CC book. I will first wake up super early and go online to see the store hours for Barnes & Noble. I will tell my dad to "Get in the car we're going to the bookstore!" and get there *as soon* as the store opens. On the drive home, I force myself not to take one look inside and wait until I'm home. I will lock myself in my room. Then I'll either reread the series to catch up or just skim over parts that I want to remember (I spend all of my time in between the CC books coming out rereading and rereading them over and over again!!). After I've done that, I'll (EEK!) start on Intitation and read it in, like, an hour. Then, (surprise surprise) I'll reread it! Once I'm completely satisfied, I usually go downstairs to tell everyone about it over gmail and see which of my horsey friends wants to borrow it first. Then I'll go upstairs, go over my favorite parts, and then go on your blog as I do like every day (read: every hour). Then I'll call up my most-CC-obssessed bff and we'll plan a CC sleepover for that Friday (a CC sleepover usually consists of talking about the book A LOT, reenacting the latest CC book scenes (yes, we did make a gossip blog and pretend to read it for #11), and slathering on waaaaay too much lip gloss. Then, I will not sleep that night because I'll be thinking about the book (its really true!) and wake up in the morning, tired, obsessed with the series all over again, and thinking about my sleepover on Friday night.
If I could get the book early I would be SO EXCITED!!!! I could do this whole routine early and let my friends borrow it sooner! I can't wait until January 3rd anyways and I know that all of these guys deserve the early book! <3 to you all

I will not look from the book all day because i will be enthrawled by reading it!
Then, read it again and get made fun of by friends for being such a book worm over a horse book (they just dont understand)

First, I'll probably scavenge my piggy bank for any remaining cash, then head over to the brick-and- mortar Barnes & Noble. Next, securing my place in the long line, I will buy Initiation. After reading it in one sitting, then re-reading it to make sure I didn't miss anything, I'll get on my computer and buy the Kindle version! After all the heavy but exciting drama and lip gloss, I will crash, dreaming up a wonderful world of Canterwood Crest.

I'm going to head to the barn and hang out with Atticus, the horse we ride. I'll probably end up reading aloud to him while drinking hot cocoa. :) I have told three of my friends about all CCA books and about Initiation!

Connie said...

On Initiation release day, I'll wake up and be like "Ohmigosh Initiation is here!!!" And I'll sit around, tapping my foot impatiently as I wait for Barnes And Noble to open. Ten minutes before the store opens, I'll drag my parents over to the store and wait until it opens. And then I'll rush in and snag the book! If htey don't have it in store, no big deal. I 'll buy it on my Kindle and wait until it comes out in paper version. ANd then I'll call all my friends and be like, "I have Initiation!!!"

Hope I made the contest!
