My First Giveaway - 50+ Followers!!!

I am so excited to host my first giveaway. I promised that I would do this as soon as I hit 50 followers and this happened much sooner than I expected. There are so many great books being released in the next few months that it is an exciting time for book lovers everywhere.

Now on to the contest:

The rules are very simple.
1) Simply comment on the book you wish to win. (You may change your mind later.) Please leave your email address with your comment or your entry will not count.

  1. Tag you're it!

    Congratulations on the 50+ followers. I'm a follower not too. Great giveaway, it's almost impossible to pick one book that I'd like. Maybe Alexander McCall Smith Corduroy Mansions or something else by the same author.
