Win “The Disappearing Spoon” by Sam Kean

I’ve never done a giveaway before, but I LOVE Sam Kean’s “The Disappearing Spoon: And Other True Tales of Madness, Love, and the History of the World from the Periodic Table of the Elements” and I know you’ll love it too (check out the reviews.)

I seriously could not put this book down, so I’m giving away a brand new hardcover copy to one lucky winner on July 28, right after I get back from BlogHer13!

To add to an already sweet deal (like I said, the book is awesome), I’m throwing in a $25 Amazon gift card.

Must be 18 years of age to enter. Void where prohibited by law. No purchase necessary to enter.

Thanks for sharing this on the Bloppies FB page. I love finding out about new books – since I don’t get to the bookstore like I used to – and anything with love and madness!

  There’s plenty of madness in this book and it’s some juicy stuff. I never really thought of the personalities and personal lives of famous scientists before… lemme tell ya’, CRAZY.

    Oh absolutely! If you think about what they have to do to invent and/or discover things, it’s no wonder some of them go mad. And love will make you do crazy things!

Even the title of the book is interesting and begs to be read!

  I know! The title looked awesome but the book looked like a huge block of words. I decided to read it anyway after someone recommended it to me. Amazing book, though, seriously!

That book sounds great ~ my kids are starting to ask more questions about the natural world that this history teacher struggles with…. can always use refreshers on science!!

  That’s perfect! The author of this book does an amazing job of conveying his knowledge in a way that makes it interesting whether you love science or just want to know some pretty awesome history.
