Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta GIVEAWAY

I can say without a doubt that Jellicoe Road is my favorite book ever. It changed my life (sorry for being dramatic) and I think everyone out there should read it! So, I'm giving away a copy!!! The giveaway will run for 2 weeks (4/29-5/13). Sorry US only.


Jellicoe Road




I'm dreaming of the boy in the tree. I tell him stories. About the Jellicoe School and the Townies and the Cadets from a school in Sydney. I tell him about the war between us for territory. And I tell him about Hannah, who lives in the unfinished house by the river. Hannah, who is too young to be hiding away from the world. Hannah, who found me on the Jellicoe Road six years ago.


Taylor is the leader of the boarders at the Jellicoe School. She has to keep the upper hand in the territory wars and deal with Jonah Griggs - the enigmatic leader of the cadets, and someone she thought she would never see again.


And now Hannah, the person Taylor had come to rely on, has disappeared. Taylor's only clue is a manuscript about five kids who lived in Jellicoe eighteen years ago. She needs to find out more, but this means confronting her own story, making sense of her strange, recurring dream, and finding her mother - who abandoned her on the Jellicoe Road.

  7. I love the whimsical look of the cover. The story line looks kind of interesting not only for my (I love YA) but also for my grandson who loves to read. I might even try to get my 9yr old granddaughter to try it if I win.

  11. Thanks for the giveaway. I don't know how I haven't read this book, I am always tempted to pick it up at the library because the cover just pulls me towards it...yet I never have. I actually haven't really seen anyone gushing over this book before either, but perhaps next time I'll pick it up!
