Spring Bloggy Giveaway

It's time for the quarterly bloggy giveaway and of course I'm joining in. Like last time, I'll probably spend hours scouring the giveaways trying to win some of the coveted prizes. I came out pretty lucky last time and hope my luck holds out this time. It's also a great way to find new blogs and get some new readers. So check it out.

Since asking for recipes last time worked great, I've decided to use the giveaway to my advantage again. I'm giving away a $25 gift certificate to Amazon.com to one lucky reader. To enter my giveaway, all you have to do to enter is leave me one great book recommendation in my comments. If you don't leave me a book recommendation, I will delete your comment. I'll close comments at midnight on Friday, April 25th. Have fun!!

THopgood said...

My book recommendation is Rockabye: From Wild to Child by Rebecca Wolf....which is why I'm giving away a copy at my own blog. Come see me.

half pint pixie said...

fortyb4forty said...

I love anything by Ann Pursor and Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella is a great book for laughing.

Snowbird said...

Since I live on Sanibel Island, Florida, I will have to say any books by Randy Wayne White are my favorites. Most of his books take place right here or close by so it is fun to be able to picture locations when I read the books.

momof2princesses said...

I just got done reading SAHM I Am, by Meredith Efken. And it's sequel, SAHM I Am @Home for the Holidays. Great books & reminded me of the Mom's message boards I'm a member of.

I am re-reading One For The Money by Janet Evanovich. I own them all in the series, and it makes you laugh with mystery, and its a great book. I highly recommend it.

Lissete said...

I like pracically everything by Brad Meltzer for a good read. For a good laugh, "I Am What I ATe and I'm Frightened" By Bill Cosby.

GrowingRopers said...

Bonds that make us free

its great.

Lizardbreath said...

Have you read Three Cups of Tea about a rock climber who built schools for girls in Nepal? It was riveting and very encouraging -a good non-fiction book that reads like fiction. The Poisonwood Bible is also excellent.

Suzie G. said...

I loved Confessions of a Shopaholic. There's 5 of them in the series now although I don't think the last two were as good as the first three. Even my fiance read them all and enjoyed them- although he'll never admit to that!

Ursula said...

I'm trying to get my hands on "Eat, Pray, Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert.

Ginny said...

One for the Money by Janet Evanovich, the entire series is hysterical & they get better with each book!

Ronnica said...

Since you get to read my book recommendations already, this is a bit shallow. However, I have to conform to the rules if I want a chance at winning! Based on what I think are your tastes, I would recommend "The House of Mirth" by Edith Wharton. I don't know if you have read it or not, but I think you would like it.

Dawn said...

I'm a childbirth junkie, so I'm going to suggest Ina May Gaskin's Guide to Childbirth ....

Amy said...

I love the "Outlander" series by Diana Gabaldon so much that I named my daughter Claire Elizabeth after the main character.

Thanks for the chance!

My name is Michelle. said...

Ohhh if you're choosing the winner by the best book, mine is sure to be in the top picks!

Outlander by Diana Gabaldon

And as a bonus...it's a s.e.r.i.e.s.

And they are thick and long and you can't put them down.

laura said...

These are sort of old news, but if you haven't read them yet, definitely look them up: Good In Bed & Watermelon (for funny, summertime, pool reading), or Pompeii & The Killer Angels (for history and interesting drama).

Favorite all time book: Pillars of the Earth (and KF just came out with a new book, so now's a good time to read this one!)

And an older book that never seemed to be on my radar, but that is now another favorite, is: The Shadow of the Wind.

Happy reading!

mattie said...

Absolutely love Bright Lights, Big A$$ by Jen Lancaster....hilarious...actually both of her books. mengels[at]hotmail[dot]com

Keara said...

The Last Lecture!

Nonnie said...

My favorite isn't a single book, but a series. I adore JD Robb's In Death series. I wait with Waiting-for-Santa-ish anticipation for each book to be released!

Julie and Ben said...

The other boleyn girl by Phillpa Greggory is awesome.

emerzim said...

The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls.

Jenna said...

One book, hunh? That's tough as I like so many types of books and have just stumbled onto your blog and am not sure what you read. I really loved Memoirs of a Geisha. In a completely different, non-fiction realm I go back and read Andy Rooney's book entitled My War. It is his journal/writings from his time as a war correspondent in WWII. It gives you a much greater appreciation for the "crumodgeon" on 60 Minutes!

Patriot said...

Captivating by John and Stasi Eldredge or any books by Francine Rivers. Thanks!!

Nichole said...

Without a doubt...Divine by Karen Kingsbury! That is my favorite book of all time!

Chasing Francis by - Ian Morgan Cron --

great, great read!

Jean at Penny Lane said...

A classic: The Snow Goose by Paul Gallico. Quick read and very moving.

I have a direct contact page on my blog.

Jubilee on Earth said...

Wow, is that an awesome idea or what??? I will totally come back and check out these suggestions. Very creative!

My suggestion is The Household Gods by Judith Tarr and Harry Turtledove. It's about a frazzled mom who wishes things were simpler and then gets whisked back to first century Rome. It's so interesting! I love time-travel novels.

Please enter me in the drawing. Thanks!

chilihead said...

Jen said...

Kabul Beauty School by Deborah Rodriguez was a FANTASTIC read!

Grace said...

"Hinds Feet on High Places" by Hannah Hurnard has got to be one classic in your library.

Annabelle said...

"Hinds Feet on High Places" by Hannah Hurnard is great! Our Women's Bible Study at church just read this together in our group. We got a lot out of it!

Rochirmil said...

Anything written by Gene Stratton-Porter is good but my favorite is Her Fathers Daughter.

Lydia said...

Even though this was written for teen, I think Do Hard Things by Alex and Brett Harris is a must read for everyone!

Rachey said...

Pillars of the Earth.

Marci said...

"Anatomy Of Peace"--it's a great book about how to get out of your "box" and how to treat people!!! Love this book!!

Nicol said...

I just reviewed Georgeouly Green on my blog. Perfect for anyone looking at going green.

Thanks!

Heather said...

I liked Beneath a Marble Sky by John Shors. Something different, and gripping story.

Shannon said...

If I could recommend one book, it would be Martha Peace's The Excellent Wife. Never have I been so convicted and moved as I was when I read that book. It will change your views on marriage and your husband...all within the Biblical confines of marriage.

Thanks for the giveaway!

It is funny, inspirational and a great book to start anytime!

Becky said...

It's always fun to get a new book to read! I'd definitely put this bloggy giveaway prize to use quickly!

A book I just read for the first time - and enjoyed! - was A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin. It's an older fantasy genre book, but a quick read and with a lovely writing style and story.

I just finished The Zookeepers Wife. It is about a couple (and several others too) and all they did during WWII in Warsaw. Excellent!
