I’d like to introduce you all to a new friend of mine…this is Maggie from over at Never Done it That Way Before. It’s an awesome blog you should totally check out…but the real reason we’re here is to tell you how I met Maggie…and that was because she was the first ever winner of Free Book Friday!! Wahoo…and her she is with her book!
How happy does she look? These photos just made my day. So happy to have added a little happiness to someone’s day…and well, that’s why we’re here again, to add happiness to someone’s day…maybe yours? This give away is going to be for The Book Thief as well, but this’ll be the last time this title is given away, all the next ones will only be offered up once.
So…here’s the rules: 1) You must be a blog follower (if you’re not, sign up now! There’s a link to your left) 2) You must be in the continental US. Sorry, no international shipping. And well…that’s it…so here’s the form, sign up and good luck!! The “drawing” will take place on June 8th, so make sure you entry is in before midnight! I’ll email the winner bright and early on June 9th!
For those unfamiliar with the book…here’s the summary from the publisher: It’s just a small story really, about among other things: a girl, some words, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist-fighter, and quite a lot of thievery. . . .
Set during World War II in Germany, Markus Zusak’s groundbreaking new novel is the story of Liesel Meminger, a foster girl living outside of Munich. Liesel scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she can’t resist–books. With the help of her accordion-playing foster father, she learns to read and shares her stolen books with her neighbors during bombing raids as well as with the Jewish man hidden in her basement before he is marched to Dachau.
This is an unforgettable story about the ability of books to feed the soul.
