I would loved to win a signed copy of One Wish because this book sounds exactly like a book I would read, it looks really good!
PS- I didn't exactly email this, but I sent my friends a link to this, considering that most of them don't really check their emails! I hope that's okay, too. :)

4. I'd love to win because books are such a huge part of my life, and finding new authors with amazing books is incredibly exciting for me. =]
Mission Accomplished!~ (VICTORY!)
There's actually a kinda of unusual reason I'd really love a copy of "One Wish"- I'm 5'2" and fat, just like Wrenn, haha. I remember when I was about 11 and really getting into reading, I kept asking myself "Why aren't there any good books about fat girls?" Of course, I know now that there are good books about fat girls, but at the time it felt like every "awkward girl" book was about a girl who didn't have boobs (I got them early and there was NOTHING great about them), who was too tall (I'd have killed for another 2 inches to be tacked on to my height!) or had red hair (what was wrong about having red hair? My sister had red hair and she fit in just fine). So now that I'm older, anytime I find a good "fat girl" book, I get a copy of it and keep it on my shelf to reread any time I'm feeling not-quite at my best :)
I know that's a long reason- sorry >.
Mission Accomplished!

after reading the first 30 pages I would simply like to read more, and I would love to be lucky enough to have a signed copy of this book.
Thanks
