International Giveaway | Blood Water Paint by Joy McCullough

I recently had a wonderful spurt of five star reads when I finally got around to reading Leigh Bardugo's Six of Crows duology and, just before that, Joy McCullough's wonderful novel in verse, Blood Water Paint which I reviewed here.



Combining historical fiction with poetry, Joy McCullough has brought the story of 17th century Italian artist Artemisia Gentileschi to life. Artemisia Gentileschi is my favourite artist; a woman who took revenge with paint after she was sexually assaulted by a man her father hired to tutor her and, remarkably for her time, chose to press charges against him.

I devoured this book in one sitting and absolutely adored it, I'm confident it's going to remain one of my favourite books of 2018 and beyond, so I'm going to give a copy away! I'd love to see more people reading this book, so if you'd like to win a copy take a look at the giveaway information and leave a comment below telling me what your favourite read of 2018 has been so far!

  • This giveaway is open internationally to anywhere that the Book Depository delivers to
  • If you're under 18, please make sure you have your parent/guardian's permission to give me your address which I'll need to send the book to you (I can promise you I won't share such personal information with anyone)
  • I'll be getting in touch with the winner on the 1st August, so make sure you check your emails if you enter!
  • Good luck!

I also have a giveaway that will be running until the end of the reading challenge; a chance for you to win a copy of Long Hidden: Speculative Fiction from the Margins of History. As this reading challenge is dedicated to reading diverse historical fiction, it only seemed right to give away an anthology that's dedicated to exactly that.
