GIVEAWAY |
Eeep!!! It's that time of year when an Avid Reader's fancy turns to New Spring Releases! And that means it's...
Reader's Choice Giveaway!
Spring Edition!!
So here's how this things works (pay attention, 'cause this day is a little different from the rest of the week): You recommend RETRO READ FICTION titles with release dates in 2020 or earlier (up to three suggestions today) and you have a chance to win one of your recommendations! BUT it's a little more complicated than that so be sure to read ALL the details before entering.
PLEASE NOTE: email entries are not eligible this week :-(
It's RETRO READ FICTION
GIVEAWAY DAY
To be entered in the draw just leave a comment (or 3) below, including the title(s) of the book(s) in the Retro Read Fiction genre you would like to win.
RETRO READ Fiction -- a full length story or novella or collection of novellas published in the year 2020 or earlier. This is your chance to get that TBR wishlist title which has been eluding for what seems life forever. Any genre, an time period, just make sure it's Christian Fiction.
How does it work?
Easy peasy! Make recommendations in the comment section each day and if you win, you win the book you suggested.
BUT YOU GOTTA FOLLOW THE RULES!
Publications dates must be
2020 or earlier
Each day is genre specific so
only submit books from that genre
Christian Fiction books only please!
You can offer up to 3 suggestions
per genre day
BUT
they need to be made in
three separate comments
(makes it easier to tally)
No email entries this week
(too hard to keep track due to
# of responses)
entrants must submit their own selections
(not piggyback on someone else's login)
Open to International Readers
(I'm all about spreading the good news
about Christian Fiction far and wide)
It's helpful if you include your email (using AT and DOT instead of @ and . to protect yourself from spammers) but you only need to add it to one of your comments (per day). If you choose not to include your email
then it's up to you to contact me if you're a winner.
Draw will be held and winner announced on
Saturday March 27 2021
Thanks, Kav, for another fun week of book talk! Good luck, friends, and have a safe, wonderful weekend!
ReplyDelete1) Just Like Home by Courtney Walsh (Aug 2020)
This novel got almost all 144 (five) star reviews, but kind of slipped through the cracks bc Courtney was writing her 2nd book in the Nantucket Island series, IS IT ANY WONDER. Which I highly recommend btw!

Psssttt --- guess what just came to my door? Eeeeeeppppppp!!!!!
DeleteI love Courtney Walsh but I am behind. Must catch up. Good luck, Diana!

The Lady and the Lionheart by Joanne Bischof
ReplyDeletekathrynlvossATgmailDOTcom
Ooohhh Lady and the Lionheart is a definite must read! Good luck, Kathryn.
Delete#1 pick-I have been waiting for
ReplyDelete*If For Any Reason by Courtney Walsh
to go down before the next book comes out,
but it went up instead.
Thanks for the giveaway Kav!
DeleteJust loved IF FOR ANY REASON!
Delete#2-Like Diana, I also need
ReplyDeleteJust Like Home by Courtney Walsh
to complete that series :)
#3-After reading books by Krista Jensen and Sian Ann Bessey I won from you last year Kav, I feel compelled to read their backlist. I was happy to find them both together in this Christmas Historical. Loved both authors, but ironically both the books I won were contemporary, so this will be interesting to see how they do crossing genres.
ReplyDeleteA Hopeful Christmas: A Regency Romance Collection
As usual this has been a fun week seeing all the new and upcoming books. I feel like I have been to a book fair!!!
Thank you for doing these giveaways Kav!

Today is turning into a Courtney Walsh love-fest. :-)
DeleteI discovered Krsita Jensen and Sian Ann Bessey through a historical novella collection and then branched out to their contemporaries...I'm tackling their backlists too. I've read A Hopeful Christmas and it's definitely swoonalicious! Good luck, Tracey!
