The competition has now closed.

Congratulations to our five winners:  Tara O’Connor, Kelyann, Elise de Tourtoulon-Adams, Peter Thompson and Carolyn. We’ll email you all directly.

Everyone gave us some great Edward/Bella/Jacob moments – it was hard to choose! Sounds like Team Edward is still out in front though. Thank you all for entering and see you back here soon for more giveaways! We’re off to watch New Moon again (half price for rabbits on a Thursday down our local flicks).

Happy reading!

We know, we know. This is almost getting embarassing. Another sparkling little give away…

But how could we possibly ignore the biggest book-to-movie release of the year – New Moon? Well, exactly. We couldn’t. (We feel a moral obligation to our furry friends in Team Jacob).

So, we’re giving five lucky winners the chance to win a tasty little bundle – a copy of the new tie-in edition of New Moon (including free poster); New Moon: The Official Illustrated Movie Companion – an exclusive behind-the-scenes guide featuring full-colour photos of the cast, locations and sets, as well as storyboards, interviews, details of the special effects and much more; and Nightlight: A Parody of Twilight – a glorious riff on the teen fiction sensation. We have five sets to give away.

The competition is now closed. Our two winners are… Shawn A. Meriano and Neil. Congratulations! We’ll email you directly for your addresses so we can get your copies craned to you (it is a seriously heavy duty hardback!)

We had a fur-raising time reading through all your scariest Stephen King moments – thanks for giving us the chills! We really hope you enjoyed reading everyone else’s comments.

Don’t forget to check out our Stephen King author profile and there will be a review of Under the Dome on the site shortly. Please add a review if you’ve already read it.

And you’ve still got time to enter our New Moon competition!

Happy Reading BookRabbiters!

Great excitement here at BookRabbit HQ this morning when a massive box arrived from Hodder & Stoughton, and we mean massive. Our first thoughts were… a year’s supply of Krispy Kreme doughnuts, GET IN! Sadly, it’s still carrots on the menu for us, as there wasn’t a glazed, powdered or custard-filled offering in sight.

But even though we would have loved an edible present from those delightful publishers (send us the festive dozen… send us the festive dozen… you’re feeling very sleepy… you want to send us doughnuts as well as nice big books) we were equally, if not far more hoppingly excited to find instead, when we lifted the lid of the magical box… two behemoth copies of Stephen King’s latest book Under the Dome!

And we mean behemoth… a whopping 877 pages. Which btw has a really satisfying THUD when you drop it on the desk from a great height (Sorry about the fingers Dan. Ouch).

Anyway, what do we decide to do… give them away to you lot of course!

The competition is now closed. The big moment has arrived… our winner drawn from all our blog and Twitter entries is… Alexander!

Thanks everyone for entering. Coming up tomorrow is a treat for all you Twi-hards – we have some very special New Moon giveaways, so hope to see you back here tomorrow.

To mark the explosive return of reluctant teenage super spy Alex Rider in Crocodile Tears, we have a signed copy to give away! Plus an Anthony Horowitz goodie bag courtesy of those very nice folk at Walker Books.

Crocodile Tears is the eighth title in Anthony Horowitz’s internationally bestselling Alex Rider series. Targeted by a hitman and under threat of his past being exposed by the media, Alex Rider reluctantly turns to MI6. Their help doesn’t come cheap: they need Alex to spy on a GM crop research centre. There, he spots Desmond McCain, the high-profile head of an international charity who seems too good to be true. He is. Kidnapped and whisked off to Africa, Alex learns the full horror of McCain’s plot: to create an epic disaster that will kill millions.

Some very nice editor types over at Little, Brown have given us 10 copies of Anita Shreve’s new book A Change in Altitude to give away to you lucky little BookRabbiters. Yes, you heard us right – 10. How generous is that? Well, we can tell you (having spoken to lots and lots of these editor types) it’s really rather generous. So smile a lot and bow at the screen and clap your hands, and maybe even do a little jig. Ha ha, we can seeeeee you!
