Giveaway: The Lincoln Lawyer!!

Gooooooooooooood morning, everyone! Ok, so it's almost lunchtime... Sorry! I've been busy busy busy, we have a project go-live for work, and I've been running around like a nut. BUT. Not so busy that I wasn't going to share this lovely giveaway with you...

Thanks to Hachette Book Group and the movie studio, I have for you 5 (yes, FIVE) sets of the movie poster and mass market paperback of Michael Connelly's The Lincoln Lawyer, coming to theaters near you on March 18th!! I want a copy for myself, just for the cover alone... *wipes off drool* I HEART MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY!!

Ok, I'm done drooling. I hope. Back to y'all. Like I said, I have 5 sets to give away. Here's some deets and fun stuff:

About the book:
Mickey Haller is a Lincoln Lawyer, a criminal defense attorney who operates out of the backseat of his Lincoln Town Car, traveling between the far-flung courthouses of Los Angeles to defend clients of every kind. Bikers, con artists, drunk drivers, drug dealers - they're all on Mickey Haller's client list. For him, the law is rarely about guilt or innocence, it's about negotiation and manipulation. Sometimes it's even about justice.

A Beverly Hills playboy arrested for attacking a woman he picked up in a bar chooses Haller to defend him, and Mickey has his first high-paying client in years. It is a defense attorney's dream, what they call a franchise case. And as the evidence stacks up, Haller comes to believe this may be the easiest case of his career. Then someone close to him is murdered and Haller discovers that his search for innocence has brought him face-to-face with evil as pure as a flame. To escape without being burned, he must deploy every tactic, feint, and instinct in his arsenal - this time to save his own life.

  8. I think Matthew is a good fit too, but I like Carol N Wong's idea of Scott Caan--seems kinda scrappy! I think Nathan Fillion would make a great Jim Rockford, maybe he'd be a good Haller too? Thanks for the chance to win!
