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!

Being Anti-Social
by Leigh K. Cunningham
Paperback ~ May 2012
Mace Evans is single at thirty-eight. When her much unloved older sister, Shannon, declares that Mace is anti-social, she embarks on a journey to understand her condition; whether she was born that way or if it is the accumulation of thirty-eight years of unfortunate encounters with other humans and dogs.
For reasons unbeknown to Mace, she has an affair with a work colleague, which brings an unexpected end to her perfect marriage. And as if the self-imposed torture and regret is not enough, Mace endures ongoing judgment from her older sister and mother, which further exacerbates already tenuous relationships.
With support from her four best friends, merlot and pizza, and with guidance from her life coach and mentor, Oscar Wilde, Mace recovers to a degree, but in her quest to understand her anti-social ways, she finds herself wondering about the quality of the fabric that keeps her network of friends intact.
When Mace's mother is diagnosed with cancer, Mace searches for common ground on which to connect before it is too late. Gold medal winner, 2012 Readers Favorite book awards

I actually went to your site the other day specifically looking for your latest This or That and didn't see any. I felt a pang of disappointment thinking that you had decided not to do them anymore. It's such a great way for me to discover books I might not have picked up. And I don't want to think of you getting buried under by all those books piling up at your place! Honestly, though...I appreciate your synopsis & reviews of the books!
ReplyDeleteI pass books on by leaving them to be found anonymously on benches or in community rooms. I moved around a lot growing up & the local library was a familiar home for me. Feel lost without books. Your giveaways remind me of the need to share the gift. Plus it's easy exposure for your wonderful blog. Thank you Susan.
ReplyDeleteI love entering giveaways!
ReplyDeleteIt is appreciated that you share the love of books. I like to enter to learn about books I want to read then pass on books to a little library and sometimes a local library who wants the book for their collection if it isn’t an arc.
ReplyDeleteLove your giveaways
