Monday* Book Giveaway (June 9, 2008)

By katrinastonoff

Two winners today! And they are … ba dump bump … Teresa W. and Cheryl S.! Congratulations! Each wins her choice of a book by Sarah Strohmeyer. Please send your shipping information to katrina (at) stonoff (dot) com, and I’ll get your books on their way. Cheryl chose The Cinderella Pact, and Teresa chose The Sleeping Beauty Proposal. Congrats again, both of you!

Don’t forget to come back next week for a chance at an autographed, inscribed copy of Strohmeyer’s brand new book, Sweet Love (you can read the first chapter if you click on the link). AND something very special and extra sweet from me.

But today it’s another Choose Your Own Book giveaway! One winner. Any book. That’s right, any book (well, any book readily available for $25 or less, not counting shipping). Just comment below by noon Sunday (Pacific Time), and I’ll choose a winner. Anyone can win — even my mother and today’s winners — as long as you have access to reliable mail service

Here’s the hat from which Tenor Sensation (home from college) chose the winners today.

This one is also a vintage hat though I can’t remember where I got it (maybe a yard sale?). It’s 100 percent wool and deceptively simple. I say deceptively because this is actually one of the cutest hats I own, but the appeal is in its impeccable shape. One of the ways I can tell it’s vintage, though, is that it’s very small (apparently heads ran smaller way back then). It perches on the top of my hair like a bird afraid to settle into the nest.

    Inkdeath by Corneila Funke or The Diamond of Darkhold by Jeanne DuPrau would be my choice.
