200th Post - A Give-a-way

Some time this week will be my 200th post, and I understand it's traditional to give something away when a milestone is reached; sort of a reverse birthday party. I'm giving away books, wonderful books.

Leave a comment this week about which book(s) you'd like and I'll do a drawing. No limit on where you live, I'll ship internationally.


Here are the books:

A Useful Dog by Donald McCaig

Christopher's Ghosts by Charles McCarry

Before I Go by Riley Weston

The Highest Tide by Jim Lynch

Songs Without Words by Ann Packer, This is an Advance Reader's Copy signed by the author.

The Indian Clerk by David Leavitt, an ARC

An Abundance of Katherines by John Green, signed by the author

Free Food for Millionaires by Min Jin Lee



I have read all of these, and either liked or loved them, I hope you will, too.

Well, let me congratulate you on your 200th post. Since this is my first visit here, I don't feel I should quality for one of the books. However, if I did I would choose "The Indian Clerk". All the books look wonderful.

Congratulations on 200 posts!

A Useful Dog caught my eye to...being a bit of a doggy person!

I've just realised I'm approaching 500 posts so I should sort out a give-away for that too.

Yay books!

I am an avid reader. I love getting lost in the story of a book. These books sound great, not had the pleasure of reading any of them but would love too!

Congrats on your 200th blog!

Congratulations! What a great idea to celebrate! I love books! If I am one of the lucky ones to win, any of them would do. Thanks!

Congratulations on your accomplishment!
I just snowed in for the first time, and I love that I have discovered a fellow book lover. I will read Ann Packer's book when it will become available, but will abstain from taking part in the give-a-way due to my newcomer status and the exhorbitant cost of mailing books to Europe. Thank you very much for your generous offer!

Congratulations! I have been coming back everyday for the last 3 days to leave a comment, and every time a child decides they need something NOW! Anyway, I love to read, so I am sure that I would love any of these. If I win, pick your favorite! Thanks so much!

Good for you and your 200th post! I didn't know that about the give-away, so we'll have to watch for ours. I would like to throw my name in the hat for "Christopher's Ghost". Again, congrats!!

2ooth...I'll be at 300 soon. I am using your idea of a giveway...but mine will be a surprise. I'd love to read "songs without words" sounds interesting to me. I am not a singer but my family is filled with lovey singers.

CONGRATS!
