Penguin Giveaway #2 in August


I have another book to giveaway compliments of Penguin. Isn't there 75th Celebration Year spectacular? I have seen so many gifts and opportunities to win books all over book blogger land.

This time I have a copy of THE TRUE STORY OF HANSEL AND GRETEL, by Loise Murphy.
I first read this last year and and my review was written just a little over a year ago, and posted to my blog in July, 2009. (REVIEW) I have since recommended this novel to many of my friends. Those of you drawn to stories about World War II will really want to read this one.

Happy 75th Anniversary Penguin & Giveaway


Today is the official 75th anniversary of the launch of Penguin Books. Wow! Congratulations Penguin!!

To help celebrate, Penguin Books asked me to select a book from a list of 75 titles. I was so thrilled to see that one of the choices was The Shadow of the Wind, by Carlos Ruiz Zafón. (see contest details below)




As I have said before, this is one of my favorite books and I am so happy that I can offer it as a giveaway. Please take a look at their dedicated website for more details about their summer celebrations. I want to thank Penguin for this giveaway opportunity and again Happy 75th Anniversary!
