WE HAVE A WINNER!!! Okay, we have WINNERS! Thanks to all of you who shared your favorite books with me....now I have some new books to look for;) Okay, here are the winners...
Food4Life because she likes the Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady. I haven't read this, but had recently picked it up at a book sale to sell on Ebay.
QuietCajun because her hubby likes Wheel of Time Series and those of us who follow this involved tale have to stick together!
Heart-N-Soul because she complimented my blog and tole me about a book I should read.
MistressNinos because my kids like the same books as her kids and she loves books like me.
Aslan School...us Narnia lovers and book lovers have to stick together and I loved the Boxcar Children when I was a kid!
Okay, okay...so I picked five winners instead of three...I couldn't help myself...I figured it worked since I asked for five books (and that was as tough a decision to make as coming up with the three winners, so I added more).
So here's what you do...email me with your five choices of books you would like from the list below (in order). I will assign them, first come, first serve. And I am not going to tell you who gets which book...it will be a surprise when it arrives! I go to the post office tomorrow so, let me know today if possible!
JenIg was running a contest asking for 10 random things about you. That is a cool idea and a neat way to get to know people!
So I thought I would run a similar contest. Tell me about favorite books. I would like to know 5 books that your children have really enjoyed. And I would like to know your five favorite books. I will randomly pick three winners and as a winner you will get to choose from these books.
