When I was at ALA just a few weeks ago, I managed to grab an extra copy of The Iron Trial. The Iron Trial is a brand new book coming out this fall, from well-known YA authors, Holly Black and Cassandra Clare. I’m about 80 pages in and I’m loving it. Its middle grade but these are two authors that I absolutely love so I’m enjoying it.
I have no idea how I ended up with an extra copy but I did and of course, I don’t need an extra copy! SO! I’ve decided to have a quick giveaway for this book!
Here are some pictures of what it looks like!

If I could invite any fictional character it would be Magnus Bane. You know he throws a good party.
Cassandra Claire is my favorite author!!!
Well this comment is perfect since my birthday is Monday! I think I would choose either Jem or Will…then I would make Will play duck duck goose XD
Percy Jackson. Simply because I love him
Thanks so much for offering this! I would invite Dumbledore because he would be a riot at a party.
I would invite the characters for the Mythos Academy series by Jennifer Estep because they seem like the greatest people to hang out with because they have each others back and take up for each other. Thanks for the giveaway!! :)
I would invite Magnus Bane from the Mortal Instruments, as he is very cool and sexy plus he knows how to party!
Well Cassie is one of my fave writers ever so I’m really excited to read her new book! :)
It’s written by Cassandra Clare and Holly Black, need I say more? :)
Im so excited for this!!! Thanks for the chance!
I completely and utterly love your blog! There is always something interesting and amazing to read about. You are an amazing blogger, and in my own personal opinion; you are one of the best bloggers out there.
Though I have entered the giveaway for the Iron Trial, and I cannot even comprehend how much I love Cassandra Clare’s writing. I loved all of her Shadowhunter series, and I am excited for TDA. So I was thrilled when I found out that The Iron Trial was coming out! :D
Holly Black in herself is amazing, and I love her books! Together they will be phenomenal! :D
I REALLY want to read The Iron Trial because I have a very VERY big obsession with magic and the elements! :D I can’t wait to meet Callum! The story sounds to amazing! What’s not to like! :D
Thank you Laura! That made me smile so BIG. I’m so glad to know people are out there, reading my stuff!
You’re very welcome lovely and I’m glad I made you smile! :D Keep up the amazing blogging! You always make my day! :D <3
I want this!! I love Cassie, and I’m curious to see a story from her that doesn’t take place in the shadowhunter world. I’ve also never read holly black and would love to be exposed to her!
Because I am on a journey to read everything Cassie Clare writes also this one looks promising x Thanks for this xx
I want to read The Iron Trial because I love reading. Its what I love to do and besides, you can never have too many books:)
Cuz. It’s Cassandra Clare and Holly Black. The dynamic duo.
And I want itt
I just really want to read this book. :)
I want to read the Iron Trial because I’m a huge fan of Cassie and Holly’s work! :)
I would control Water, because I live on a river and it would make for some really neat party tricks. Thanks for the giveaway!!
I’d be the Avatar so I could have the power over all four elements. Duh. :)
I choose Earth, because it is a lot to control, and you may be able to help the environment with the power.
I would choose water because it is everywhere and can be easily accessed for use. Katara even used her own sweat in an episode of avatar.
It’s kind of ridiculous how long and how much thought I’ve put into this, because I’ve actually considered this many times before. Haha I would choose air because I’m a total baby and don’t want to accidentally hurt myself while wielding my element. Air is pretty much as safe as you can get, unless it’s a tornado or something. Plus, it’s still a pretty powerful element and very versatile. I could probably figure out how to use it to fly (like Aang used his glider), cool myself down when it’s too warm for my liking, or suffocate someone by taking all the air around them like they did to Lissa in VA.
I seriously love this answer haha. Its so well thought out. I also love that everyone is answering in regards to Avatar, which, incidentally, I’ve never watched, when I’m actually referring to The Iron Trial haha
I would want to have power over water or earth. I’ve always loved Katara and it would be so cool to be able to bend and play with water.
I have thought about this a million and four times. I would love to have the power over earth. I feel like controlling earth would be absolutely amazing. To be able to bend the earth at your will and to never have to hire a landscaper would be a great plus as well.
I don’t know. I would choose between Fire or water, it seems cool to wield with, as a weapon (even though I don’t fight XD) but those are just such cool elements.
I would choose to have power over either water or fire. Both elements are always in motion, always changing, always being unpredictable. I think those would be useful qualities.
I would choose power over water. I have always felt more comfortable with the element of water than anything else.
Water because almost everything contains water. And because katara was a water bender and she was pretty rad :)
ummm yeah I need this. Thanks for the opportunity to win it!! <3 LoveLove<3
I would choose to have the power over water, because I’m a cancer (which is a water sign) and I’m obsessed with the sea.
Well, if I had fire I’d probably hurt myself because of how klutzy I am… I’d want control over water. I just think that’d be cool :)
AIr because I can make a thin ‘blade’ with it and it can be visible and invisible.
I would have power to control water, so then I could be Percy Jackson. Only female.
