Along with drinking green beer and partying it up at the St. Patty's Day parade, I'm celebrating St. Patrick's Day by giving away a book set on the cliffs of Ireland itself. I just recently listened to The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater, and though many reviewers have given this book a lukewarm reception, I absolutely fell in love with the story. You can find my review HERE. If you're a fan of Maggie's, or you're just curious to see how she handles a stand-alone story after the wonder that was The Wolves of Mercy Falls series, read on to enter to win your own copy of The Scorpio Races, plus a signed postcard from Maggie.

Author: Maggie Stiefvater
Series: n/a
Publisher: Scholastic, Inc.
Publication Date: October 18, 2011
It happens at the start of every November: the Scorpio Races. Riders attempt to keep hold of their water horses long enough to make it to the finish line. Some riders live. Others die.
At age nineteen, Sean Kendrick is the returning champion. He is a young man of few words, and if he has any fears, he keeps them buried deep, where no one else can see them.
Puck Connolly is different. She never meant to ride in the Scorpio Races. But fate hasn’t given her much of a chance. So she enters the competition — the first girl ever to do so. She is in no way prepared for what is going to happen.

I listened to the audio but I have a hardcover of my own. You won't be getting that one, though, because I loved the audio so much that I'll definitely be going back for a re-read. :)
