A Victorian Celebration Contest!
Greetings, Victorian Celebration Participants!
Giveaway Closed: Congratulations to the Winner:
Jean from Howling Frog Books!
Jean chose to receive a copy of the Penguin Clothbound Edition of The Mill on the Floss.
Welcome to A Victorian Celebration Contest! This Contest is open ONLY to registered participants of “A Victorian Celebration,” hosted by A Literary Odyssey.
The contest is simple! Starting today (Wednesday, June 27th) and until 10pm on Wednesday, July 3rd, participants in the celebration can Take This Quiz on Victorian Literature.
After the deadline, I will review the answers and the person with the highest score will receive a prize!
If there is a tie for the highest score, I will randomly select a winner from that group. The winner will be e-mailed and will have 48-hours to respond, before a new winner is selected.
Simple Rules:
1. Be a participant in Allie’s “A Victorian Celebration”
2. Take the Quiz (You can use any available resources to help you find the answers).
The Prize:
Any Victorian novel of your choice (to be shipped from the Book Depository) up to $15 USD!
If more than 25 valid (i.e. from registered participants) entries come in, I will add a second winner!
Good Luck, Challengers!
My Victorian Celebration Reading So Far:
The Autobiography of Mark Twain
Germinal by Emile Zola (currently reading)

I know, right?! That’s what I’m here for… random, useless factoids a-plenty! Although, who knows, maybe someone will read this, appear on Jeopardy, and win something nice. haha

P.S. Hope you are enjoying Germinal, I read it last year for Paris in July and thought it was a masterpiece. One of the best books I’ve ever read!
