I have sooooo many books!
The This or That Giveaway! feature that I post every Saturday is a way for me to cull my collection and to share some of the many books I have. I get to clear off some of my shelves to make room for more books and give someone else the chance to enjoy these treasures.
Good luck and be sure to stop back next week!

The Little French Bridal Shop
by Jennifer Dupee
Hardcover ~ Published March 2021
Jennifer Dupee's debut novel is a delight...a story about discovering your authentic self when things get hard, and the joys you can find when you live from your heart. --Louise Miller
Is a lie of omission still a lie? Larisa Pearl didn't think so and it got her into a heap of trouble.
When Larisa Pearl returns to her small seaside hometown in Massachusetts to manage her beloved great aunt's estate, she's a bit of an emotional mess. She's just lost her job and her boyfriend and she's struggling to cope with her mother's failing health. When she passes by the window of The Little French Bridal Shop, a beautiful ivory satin wedding gown catches her eye...
Now, to the delight of everyone in town, Larisa is planning her wedding. She has her dress, made floral arrangements, and set the date. The only thing missing is the groom. How did this happen? All she did was try on a dress and let her fantasy take flight. But word about her upcoming nuptials has reached the ears of Jack Merrill. As teenagers, they spent time together on her great aunt's estate, building a friendship that could have become something more had they chosen different paths.
Lost in a web of her own lies, Larisa must first face some difficult truths, including her mother's fragile future, before she can embrace her family, straighten out her life, and open her heart to finding love.

The Hole in the Middle
Kate Hilton
Paperback ~ November 2013
Sophie Whelan is the kind of woman who prides herself on doing it all. In a single day, she can host a vegan-friendly and lactose-free dinner for ten, thwart a PTA president intent on forcing her to volunteer, and outwit her hostile ‘assistant’ in order to get her work done on time.
With her fortieth birthday looming, and her carefully coordinated existence beginning to come apart at the seams, Sophie begins feeling like she needs more from her life—and especially from her husband, Jesse.
The last thing Sophie needs is a new complication in her life. But when an opportunity from her past suddenly reappears, Sophie is forced to confront the choices she’s made and decide if her chaotic life is really a dream come true—or the biggest mistake she’s ever made.

I enjoy your weekend giveaways very much. The books are appealing and would be greatly enjoyed. I look forward to the variety and would love to win. Thanks and I do hope that you continue. Have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love the giveaways. i check every week to see if you have a new one. The books are great.
ReplyDeleteInternet traffic always slows down during the summer. It should perk up again after Labor Day. I personally really appreciate your regular giveaways. I enter whenever you've got something interesting :)
ReplyDeleteI love all your giveaways! I actually enter them every day. I agree with Denise's comment that summertime slows down Internet comments for some people. I do hope you will continue your book giveaways. I enjoy them and I know many others do also.

I like entering these giveaways, especially for books, because it gives me a chance to win books I wouldn't necessarily buy for myself and read things I didn't even know I would like. It could be that people are away for the summer, I don't know. For me I know I moved recently so I've been busy and I often just forget to sit down and enter the giveaways. Maybe that's everyone else too?
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday, everyone! I know we all enjoy entering the giveaways here at The Book Bag! We appreciate you hosting the book giveaways.

Aw, thanks everyone! I'm feeling the love.
ReplyDeleteI love entering all your giveaways, and I especially like the choices offered in This or That! I agree with others...things usually slow down a bit in the summer, with kids home and family obligations/vacations. I know one difference for me, though, over these past months is that I no longer seem to get your blog via email. Maybe it was when Feedburner stopped? But now I'm following on Twitter w/notifications on. That makes a difference!
ReplyDeleteI love entering all your giveaways
ReplyDeleteDon't stop the giveaways
