Thanks to Overwhelmed With Joy for allowing me the use of her Pay It Forward button! She’s running another great giveaway this month, with THREE books to Pay Forward!
(Mr. Linky doesn’t seem to be working for me today; I may add him later …)
I am a HUGE Michael Connelly fan and have read all of his books. He’s usually a :must go out and buy” author the day the book comes out. I’ll add to my blog in a sec, and if I were to win
I’d definitely use it for one of my monthly pay it foward exchanges.
My husband and I both enjoy Michael Connelly’s books. I have a book blog and would be happy to give it away through Planet Books once the hubby and I finish it. Please put my name in the hat for your giveaway!

That sounds interesting. And my kids are now out of school and the noise is driving me crazy, and I think I need to hide in my room and read a book.
I havent read Michael Connelly yet, but would like to read a good crime fiction. Please do include me in the draw.
Thanks,
Archana.

Oooh! I’ve read all the Harry Bosch books but none of the Mickey Haller. PLUS I’ve never had a giveaway before.
I AM a huge Michael Connelly fan. My husband picked him out one year and gave me a few. After that I was hooked. I don’t have this book though, and it would be a nice treat, I’m sure.
Thanks for the opportunity, I collect ARC’S. I also enjoy Michael Connelly’s books, so count me in.
i’m into Michael Connelly ever since my hubby introduced him to me. Right now, I’m collecting his books.
do toss my name in the hat please.
Michael Connelly is one of my top five favorite authors of all time. I simply cannot get enough of his iconic hero Harry Bosch. Additionally, the Lincoln Lawyer is in the top 25 of my 100 favorite books of all times. I would consider a chance of a life time to win your copy of The Brass Verdict, which puts two of my favorite fiction heroes in one book.
The enthusiasm for this book giveaway is great! Interesting that two of the female entrants were introduced to Michael Connelly’s books by their husbands; I discover new authors that way, too!
BSMiers, I’m curious … who else is in your list of “top five favorite authors”?
Please enter me! Thanks!! Also, stop by and enter my giveaway.
I am new to his books and would like to check it out! Count me in!
I haven’t read anything by him, but it sounds good!
I have a copy of this heading my way – so you can remove me from the contest. I’d hate to take it away from some one
I did hear it’s his best one yet and I can’t wait to get it and read it 
Thanks for letting me know, Lori. Yes, you’ll enjoy the book; I’m glad you’re getting it, somehow! You were the first one with your name in the giveaway, so I know you’re enthusiastic about it!
Oooh ooh! Pick me, pick me!
I love, love Michael Connolly’s books. Definitely one of my favorite authors.
I blogged about the contest. But ignore all the folks who enter from my blog – cause I want to win.
I’m a fan of Mickey Haller…not Harry. I am really curious about this one.
I love love love Harry Bosch! I have had such a crush on him since the very first book – The Black Echo. Michael Connelly definitely a “must-buy-new” author – in fact, I’ve even had the great fortune of meeting him and getting a book signed by him!
So definitely, if I get this ARC, I’ll read it right away and pass it along to another great fan

I LOVE Michael Connelly, and I spent all my book money last week in a love-fest at a major bookstore. HELP!
I haven’t yet read Michael Connelly’s books but I enjoy crime/detective novels so his name is on my ‘someday’ list. Maybe someday will be now. I know that he is the creator of an LAPD detective. Having lived most of my life in that southern CA area, an LA locale is a definite plus in my being interested in his books.
I don’t have a blog so can’t share this giveaway with anyone nor can I later offer the book as a giveaway prize.
However, if I win I’ll be happy to read it and pass it on to someone else. So please enter my name in the drawing.
Thank you.
Mary Kay (and all non-bloggers) -
I’m glad you found the giveaway page! I should have noted that non-bloggers should just share the book with a friend or donate it somewhere when you’re done with it. Pay It Forward however you can!

I would very much like to read this book, because I have enjoyed other books by Michael Connelly. I know this one will be great to.
I have read nothing but dry, dusty reports for ages(reseacher) I should love a chance to read SOMEthing else!
i want to read this book because while browsing through amazon.com Michael Connelly was given a whole bunch of 5 stars from other readers and you can’t get better than that. now i’d like to find out if i give the same rating.
I like the Harry Bosch character and like mysteries in any case. Please enter me in the contest.

I finsihed this last night and it was FANTASTIC! One of his best to date. Good luck everyone.
I’d like to win because I am just a huge reader and love to get my hands on new books!
Haven’t read any Connelly yet but would be interested in starting. I am about finished with my current read and looking for a good one to begin next!
