Awesome Book Trailers & eBook Giveaway

I absolutely love book trailers, but most suck BALLS. I mean seriously, most have stupid photos going by with some funeral music or even worst soft porn melody (not that I've ever seen soft porn or know what that is)

Then there are some ridiculous sentences that accompany the photos like "Meet Toby. He loves riding horses, but doesn't have the right woman to ride along with him."

Well, maybe that's because Toby is a DICK (not that I've ever seen a. . .oh nevermind)

Anyway, my mission in 2013 is to revolutionize the book trailer! I want them to be the next big thang! So in my efforts to succeed  I'll be revealing my top five book trailers every month! At the end of the post there will be an ebook giveaway where the winner can choose to win any of the five books from the Top Five Trailer List. Plus, if you want to check out the book just press on the book's title. 


TOP FIVE BOOK TRAILERS FOR AUGUST



NUMBER FIVE:


Blackbirds by Chuck Wendig

I admit that it doesn't have a bunch of footage and music, but this trailer is haunting and makes me want to read the book. I put the novel on my TBR list after watching this pretty scary trailer.







NUMBER FOUR:


The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater

Apparently, the author did her own animation, which is freaking amazing. I don't usually read her books, but I would check this book out just based on the trailer.








NUMBER THREE:


The Perfect Mistress by Victoria Alexander

I don't read historical romance, but seeing this trailer makes me want to give the trailer a try. I love the music and the simple scenes that sort of give me a sensual vibe. 








NUMBER TWO:


The Women by T.C. Boyle

Dude, looking at this trailer makes me want to pop some pop corn sit down and watch the trailer all over again. I mean I'm not even sure I know what the hell this book is about, but dude. . .dude? This trailer rocks!









Number One:


Dark Possession by Christine Feehan

I can't even lie to you. This may not be the best trailer of all five, but it's the only one that has some action scenes and features a blackish chick. I'm gonna confess that when I saw the blackish chick I was like, "Whoa, Blackish Chick!"






So out of all FIVE which one made you want to rush and buy the book? Why did it excite you? What do you think makes a great book trailer?

  1. Love Love LOOOOOVE the trailer for Blackbirds. I even had the Mr. watch it. It's so simple but that's what I love about it. I hate book trailers because they always look like a B movie's worst nightmare. Even though I'm more a romance person, his trailer makes me want to drop what I'm reading, just so that I can see what happens in the book.
