My Birthday Giveaway!


Well today is my birthday and along with being older, I'm hoping I'm a little wiser also!  I'm not sure where we will be going for dinner yet tonight, but today I plan on spending the day shopping in Duluth with my daughter. 

For my birthday I decided to have a giveaway that allows one winner to choose one of the following books that are gently read from my personal collection.  You can click on the title to read my review.


31 Bond Street by Ellen Horan (this is a hardcover I received from the publisher)












Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger (This is a paperback ARC I received from the publisher)











The Age of Orphans by Laleh Khadivi (This is a Trade Paperback edition I received from the publisher)












A Change in Altitude by Anita Shreve (This is a trade paperback edition I received from the publisher)











Now for the giveaway!

To enter this contest you must be at least 18 and live in the U.S. or Canada. No PO Boxes please.

For one entry leave me a comment including your email address below.  No need to decide which book you want right now, as I will only be selecting one winner.

For two additional entries, blog about this contest or add the link to your sidebar.

You will have until August 17th to enter and I will draw for a winner on August 18th.

Good luck everyone!
