Contest: Mackenzie, Lost and Found
I have a signed copy of Mackenzie, Lost and Found up for grabs.
The description is:
Fifteen-year-old Mackenzie Hill knows something is up when she arrives home to find her father making a home-cooked dinner, instead of his standard delivery pizza. But nothing prepares her for the bombshell announcement: Mackenzie and her dad, alone since the death of her mother a year ago, are moving to Jerusalem, where her father has taken a position as a visiting professor at a university.
The adjustment from life in Canada to life in Israel is dramatic - though it's eased somewhat when Mackenzie is befriended by an American girl in her new school. The biggest shock of all comes when Mackenzie faces the wrath of her new friends, new community, and even her own father after she begins dating a Muslim boy.

ReplyDeleteOkay and I was distracted at the time of entering so I thought I answered the question and didn't. I would not want to move to California. It seems really pretty but it is way too crowded and I just wouldn't be comfortable there. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteI'm a follow and review commenter :)
ReplyDeleteI would not want to move to an island! I'm a small-town girl, but even I have my limits. I have to be near people and civilization ! :)

ReplyDeleteThe jungle. Any jungle with snakes and spiders and other poisonous things. Where it's humid and sticky and gross. No jungles for me!

It's a tie between the swamp and the desert. BUT the ocean would suck too. I'll probably end up drowning...
ReplyDeleteam a follower -insert Hawaiian dance craze-

I would never want to move to Florida. It seems so blah to me, for some reason. Also, I commented on your review, I'm already a follower, and I have a link to this contest on my blog's left sidebar under cool contests.
ReplyDeleteI'll try just about anything! I think a dying industrial town would be incredible depressing though. So I'm going to pick Gary, Indiana.

Awesome contest! I'd love to be entered.
ReplyDelete-I'd never want to move too...hmm...this is hard! I'd say, Hawaii just because I get hot really really easily and I would hate to live by the beach...though yes, I'm sure it's not all like that in Hawaii and I probably sound crazy, but I'd much rather move to England or something.

I would not live in Columbia, IL again because it is sooo crazy small townish. I didn't hate it while I was living there that much, but now I don't want to join in on the drama again. I enjoy being away from as much drama as possible.
