One Book a Week, Week Seven

The Fine Print, in normal-sized print:
Summer, everyone knows, is for reading. Well, so are Winter, Autumn and Spring, but especially Summer.
So every week, from here through the end of August, I'm going to be giving away a book*. Some of them may be mine, some of them may be by other people. They may be just-out, or entry-points to an on-going series. It will be a totally random and whimsical choice, to keep things interesting.
How do you get in on this? Simple: you comment here on why you need something new to read. Vacation? Stuck in bed with a bad cold? Totally out of book-buying funds? Captured by aliens who insist on a new story every night or they'll eat you?
Tell me.
(you can enter every week, but only once every week. And you MUST identify yourself in your post, either via log-in or a name and contact point. I'm not going to choose anyone who doesn't identify**.)
Ready? Go.
Seventh Book: The Crow God's Girl by Patrice Sarath
Kate Mossland has accepted her new life as foster daughter to Lord Terrick ,and is engaged to be married to his son Colar.
But all is not easy in the House of Terrick. The servants distrust her, the men-at-arms disdain her, and learning how to be a great lady is harder than it looks. Every misstep brings her closer to ruin, and Kate must walk a fine line between independent teen and modest noblewoman.
Then in a single blow Kate learns that her life is truly not her own. As Aeritan teeters on the brink of war, and promises once made are so easily broken, Lord Terrick demands that Kate submit to a new role.
But Kate is not so easily managed...
(this is not the first book in the series, but it's easy to slip into the world and pick up the action, so don't be afraid!)
*yes, a real, actual, PAPER book.
**the post will 'open' on Monday, and 'close' on Friday. Winners will be chosen over the weekend, and informed the following Monday
