The weather has finally turned warm and the sun is shining! I'm feeling the pull to the lawn swing in my back yard where I hope to spend many hours with a good book over the next few months. The problem is that to make room for new books I have to get rid of some of my current books. So, I have decided to have a giveaway!
I read
Leaving Microsoft to Change the World while I away from home on a business trip. John Wood and the
Room to Read organization he founded is an inspiration.
Then She Found Me by Elinor Lipman is the story of a birth-mother and the daughter she gave up for adoption thirty-six years ago. Is there any doubt that I would have related to this one?!
I read
The Blue Cotton Gown: A Midwife's Memoir by Patricia Harman as part of a memoir challenge of reading four books in four months. I couldn't put this one down.
There are the books; here are the rules. To be entered into the drawing, become a follower of
My Own Velvet Room if you're not already one, post a reference to my blog on your blog if you have one, and leave a comment here letting me know which book you would like if you are chosen.
That's it! I'll draw for the winner on Tuesday!
Just stopping by to see what you are up to; how life is, etc! I haven't been able to blogwalk as much as I used to!
