Lucky Me and a Another Giveaway for You

It's been a really good week for me as far as books go! On Sunday night, I received an e-mail from Heather Summerhayes Cariou. She asked me if I would like to read and review her book SIXTYFIVE ROSES. Of course, I jumped at the chance! I had read the review on the hidden side of the leaf and thought it looked like an incredible book.

Then on Monday morning, I heard from My Friend Amy that I won a copy of A SOLDIER'S FAMILY! I also received IMMORTAL in the mail that day -- I won this book from Iliana at Bookgirl's Nightstand last week. Then on Monday night, I heard from MJ Rose, author of THE REINCARNATIONIST, asking if I'd like to read a copy of her book. She graciously offered to do an author chat with my book club and even an interview on my blog. You will definitely be hearing more about this in the near future.

On Tuesday morning, I got an e-mail saying that I was a winner of a mousepad in the Penguin Classics Giveaway. It's not a book, but I'll take it! Then, the UPS man delivered a package with two more books -- THE KNITTING CIRCLE and THE MEANING OF NIGHT!

Wednesday started out the same way. The FedEx guy brought me FIFTEEN MINUTES OF SHAME by Lisa Daily. It looks like a cute Chick Lit book! Then a few hours later, the UPS guy brings and ARC of NOW YOU SEE HIM by Eli Gottlieb. The book actually came out a few months ago, and I've had it on my TBR list! Yippee!!

At this point, I'm beginning to feel a little panicked about how I'm ever going to read this many books! Of course, it's a good panicky feeling! All I can say is WOW -- I feel so incredibly lucky right now. Should I be playing the lottery?

Because I've had such an amazing week, I'd like to share my good luck with you ! I have an extra copy of THE WOMAN WHO IS ALWAYS TAN AND HAS A FLAT STOMACH AND OTHER ANNOYING PEOPLE by Lauren Allison and Lisa Perry. You can read my review here. If you are interested in winning this book, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post --please include your e-mail so I can let contact you if you win. Want to double your chances? Mention this contest on your blog, and post a link back here! The contest will run until Sunday, March 16th at 11:59 pm EST. I will anounce the winner on Monday morning.
