~My Very First Giveaway~ April 23, 2009






I have 3 gently used books that are gathering dust on my over-crowded shelves that I would love to give away. This is my first giveaway, so bear with me, and hopefully I can figure out how to do this! The 3 books that I have to find new homes for are:





Time Lottery by Nancy Moser: "If you could go back in time, what would you change? After winning the Time Lottery, people will answer that question for themselves. "




Sanibel Scribbles by Christine Lemmon: "In a single, shocking moment, Victoria Brightman learns that life doesn't always go the way she planned, and this haunting realization turns into insomnia, a preoccupation with her own mortality and full blown panic attacks. She struggles through nights, weeks, months - the kind of struggle that either lays to rest the dreams a woman has for her life or inspires her to re-evaluate those dreams and stride out on a new path."


Innocence by Kathleen Tessaro: "It is 1986, and eighteen-year-old aspiring actress Evie leaves Eden, Ohio, to study theater in London, England. Almost immediately she falls in with new female chums Imogen (born-again Laura Ashley poster child, frustrated virgin) and Robbie (gorgeous wild-child bohemian, far from virginal). The world is thrilling and new, and anything is possible . . . until love intervenes.
It is 2001, and Evie's a single mother teaching drama to night students. Robbie is dead, killed in a car accident. And Evie is doing her level best to forget the past, the lost opportunities, and the dreams that exploded . . . until an old friendship comes back to haunt her.
Literally."

    My husband just told me he had my page pulled up on his work computer and couldn't figure what the "noise" was in the background. LOL
