Hi lovelies, I haven't posted a giveaway here for a while so here's one for you! (^_^)
Incase you don't know, I like reading :) I love reading anything from a good book, literature, biography, even wikipedia and blogs! I don't really enjoy newspaper though because I hate reading criminal reports, etc - it makes me paranoid (*cringe*).
Anyway, for those of you who also love to read or knows someone that would like a good book, you can join this giveaway that's brought to you by Michelle Moran, a fabulous renown writer. I have one of her books, Cleopatra's Daughter (and did a giveaway on that book too!) a long time ago, and I enjoyed reading it. She specializes in writing about historical female character - and all her books have amazing titles and beautiful book covers worth to be showcased in your coffee table or bookcase (^_^).

Michelle's new book is "Rebel Queen".
It tells a breathtaking story of Queen Lakshmi, India’s Joan of Arc - who against all odds defied the mighty British invasion to defend her beloved kingdom. Michelle spent a long time in India to do some research for this book so you will find lots of details from interesting places and historical background in India that relates to this book. That's how serious Michelle is ... and I always appreciate a thorough historical details in a book (because I love history as well).

Q: Along similar lines, what was the research process like for Rebel Queen?
A: With each of my novels, the research always begins in the country where the novel takes place. In this case, it was India. Because I married an Indian man, the research for this novel was considerably easier than it would have been without someone to translate Hindi documents for me or take me on a tour of various sites within India. As with each novel, the research involved a lot of traveling and reading, which for me is one of the best parts about writing historical fiction.
