Giveaway #1


***CONTEST CLOSED***


I wanted my first giveaway to be something wonderful and handmade, that would make people say, "Oooh...she's talented." Ahem. However, Wendy has been sick, and I've been lazy, so nothing was made in time for day one of the giveaway. Stay tuned, though, as I have high hopes for later this week!




This giveaway is for three books by Deeanne Gist: The Measure of a Lady, A Bride Most Begrudging, and Courting Trouble. These are Christian fiction, and I'd classify them as light escape reading. The main characters in each story are amusing and not-so-perfect, and very easy to relate to. I enjoyed reading these books, and I think you will, too!


This giveaway is open to residents of the US and Canada.

Please leave a single comment (duplicates will be deleted) on this post and a random winner will be drawn. Make sure to include e-mail address or other contact info with your comment!

I will close comments at 12:01 a.m. on Friday, February 1 and will announce the winner later that day.
Head over to Bloggy Giveaways for more great giveaways!
