Hattery News: Royal Book Giveaway!

Posted on June 10th, 2012 by Ella  |  2 Comments »

Hatters!  For those of you who are interested in the current royal families of Europe (that's all of you, if you're here!), hop on over to my flagship blog, The Royal Roundup, for a chance to win a brand-new book about today's monarchies!

You can read my review of Peter Conradi's The Great Survivors: How Monarchy Made It into the Twenty-First Century over at the blog, but -- spoiler alert! -- I totally loved it.  It's informative, gossipy, and really attention-grabbing.  In fact, I loved it even before I found out that there might be a tiny mention of Mad Hattery in the book itself!  I think we're all officially famous, guys!

To enter to win a signed (!) copy of the book, head over and offer a reason why you think monarchies have continued to survive in the comments section on the post.  The giveaway is open to readers all over the world.  Post your comment by 5 PM on June 15 (that's Friday!) for a chance to win!

(You can also pre-order the book from Amazon here -- its release date is also Friday, June 15.)
