GIVEAWAY

I have a large, mass market style (meaning it's not the small mass market paperback) copy of The Strain to giveaway to readers in the U.S. only. I cannot mail internationally at this time due to finances. Sorry! You must be signed up for the read-a-long to enter. This is going to be a fast one so I can mail the book out this weekend.
