I am very jealous of Michelle Moran. Not only has she walked through the The House of Augustus (my favorite historical figure), but she is an amazing writer who has brought life to women and eras that have fascinated people for centuries. Nefertiti… Cleopatra… the names are synonymous with beauty, femininity, and tragedy. Despite the tabloid like rumors of history, those very interesting stories that historians tell to make history worth knowing to those who otherwise would not care for it, these women were once real, alive, and complex. Not only does Moran talk about well known women, but she gives us the names and characters of some unknown but still impressive women: Nefertari and Selene.

I have been DYING to read Michelle Moran, especially Cleopatra’s Daughter because it takes place in my favorite period of history. And my heart does go pitter-patter when I think of Octavian (Augustus).

Which is why it brings me so much pleasure to bring to you an amazing contest, which has been offered by Michelle Moran herself. It’s awesome the way that Moran respects and values the book community, and you can tell that she loves to give to her fans because she has offered up TWO books to TWO readers of Morbid-Romantic.net.

Up for grabs is: a SIGNED hardcover copy of Cleopatra’s Daughter (synopsis) or a SIGNED paperback of The Heretic Queen (synopsis)!

There are a number of ways you can win this book, each good for one entry each. For each entry, leave me a separate comment. Also, make sure that you leave me a way to contact you if you win.

1.) Leave a comment below telling me that you’d like to win.
2.) Blog about this contest and leave a comment with the links.
3.) Add me on twitter (@morbidromantic) and Tweet this contest, then comment with a link to the Tweet or your username.
4.) Stumble this giveaway or my main site and comment with your StumbleUpon username.
5.) Rate my blog at Blogged. Click here or find the graphic on the sidebar under ‘ranks.’
6.) Add my RSS reader here and leave me a comment telling me that you subscribe to my feed.
7.) Comment on and rate (rating is found in the header of the post) any of my previous book reviews and leave me a comment telling me that you have.
8.) Add me to your Technorati favorites: .
9.) Add me on LibraryThing, Good Reads, Shelfari, Book Blogs, or BookBlips and leave a comment telling me where you’ve added me and (if you can), your username/name.
10.) Answer this question: Who is your favorite historical woman?

If you do all of the above, you will get ten entries. That’s ten chances to win.

Winners will be selected on 11:59pm EST on September 10th. I will be using Random.org to select the winner. The first winner will get his/her choice of the books offered. Whichever one the first winner does not choose will be given to winner number 2. This contest is open internationally.

    Helen Keller is my favourite historical female figure because she’s an inspiration for people who think they can’t do things.
