Giveaway : “An Abundance of Katherines” by John Green!
When it comes to relationships, Colin Singleton’s type happens to be girls named Katherine. And when it comes to girls named Katherine, Colin is always getting dumped. Nineteen times, to be exact.
He’s also a washed up child prodigy with ten thousand dollars in his pocket, a passion for anagrams, and an overweight, Judge Judy-obsessed best friend. Colin’s on a mission to prove The Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability, which will predict the future of all relationships, transform him from a fading prodigy into a true genius, and finally win him the girl.
I read and loved this book so much, that I just had to share it with more people! And since there’s been a publication for 3.99$, I went and got a second copy just for you! (It’s still a free book for you, and a good one at that!)
You can read my review here!

My type? I’m not really sure what my type is, because I had always thought I had one…until I met my fiance, and he was not what I thought my type was. He was a complete surprise to me, and I love that about him, and wouldn’t change him for the world.

My type is exactly like yours: long hair or completely shaved heads. Except I ultimately prefer shaved heads. Vin Diesel is an example of my type. 🙂 I also like guys who are only almost the same height as I, or juust a little over (an inch or two, or three, at most). 😀 Thanks for this awesome giveaway!
Looks like a fun book! My type. . .the good guys. Ones with great hearts, a solid sense of responsibility, and a secret creative side. Luckily, I married my type!
No need to enter me in the contest, as I already have a copy of this book, but for the entirety of high school and college, my type was 5’10” Catholic boys who were sophomores when I started dating them. 🙂
Mustache and dimples and dark hair – but not overly long and over 6 ft!

My “type” has a pretty broad range but I have to say, I do have a thing for redheads!
Thanks for the giveaway!

Great review and it sounds like a fun book! Please enter me in the giveaway!
Type of man I like would be dark haired and brown eyed with a mustache. Hey I have been heavily involved with 3 Scorpio men who are my total astrological opposites.
I would love to win! 🙂

I have a lot of different types, but mainly, I like dark hair. And I like a guy with a firm hand.. 😉

Makes me laugh, brunettes, and I have a fascination with gray eyes. Sounds like a good read.
Please enter me.
I laughed when I read you post because my guys are usually like that as well. Long hair or shaved heads. I also like a guy a little rough around the edges.. you know.. 3 day stubble compared to a primpy man. I don’t date a man who takes longer than me to get dressed. lol.
I like dark haired guys.
I like family oriented men.
I would love to read this, it looks great!
My type — not blond 🙂 and with a sense of humor 🙂
I would love the opportunity to win this book!
I am actually dating someone right now who is not like any other guy I have ever dated. He’s not my stereotypical “type”. And you know what? He is the sweetest, most understanding, and silly guy I have ever met. We’re getting along great! Maybe going against type is a good thing. 🙂
Sounds great! Count me in:)

My type? I’ve always liked “darker” guys: Dark complexion, dark hair, dark eyes. I was never big on the “blond hair/blue eyes” thing. Growing up, I always went crazy over Native American, Greek or Italian boys with longish hair. Be still my heart!
