From your list, the ones I'd most like to read are The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, which I have, and Matrimony, which I don't.

I'd also love to read The 19th Wife.

Please enter me. Thank you!

Well, we both read "Two Brothers" and evidently had very different takes on it. I've also read "The Glass Castle," "Three Cups of Tea," "The Alchemist," "The Kite Runner," and "Matrimony." Like Tracy I'm dying to read "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society," which is on my TBR bookcase. Actually, I've read "The 19th Wife" too, but my mom is dying to read it, so I'm trying to win this for her (I want to keep my copy!)

Tricia said...

We've read 10 of the same books this year. I'd really like to read Deep in the Heart of Trouble. I've also got The 19th Wife on my TBR.

Pick me, pick me please!!

P.S. I'll be adding this giveaway to my bloggy too.

Unknown said...

I've been wanting to read Matrimony by Joshua Henkin. I see it ALL over the bloggy world and it looks really good.

I also have the 19th Wife on my TBR list. I'd love a chance to be entered into this contest - thanks!

Shopaholic Takes Manhattan by Sophie Kinsella- I've read this book and it was good, very girly and chic, all her books are so good I love the "undomestic goddess" which is by her too. Thanks for entering me :)

Unknown said...

I have read Glass Castles it was ok. But not great. Kite Runner and Matrimony. Our book club is reading it for October. I gave it to one of my friends and can't remember who. How stupid is that.
So I entered in your matrimony giveaway. Now, I would like to try 19th Wife too. I am linking up to you. I have wanted to read the Guersney Literary and Potato Pie Society, it has been sitting on my bedside table.

Anonymous said...

I just Matrimony after reading all those reviews and am planning to read it REALLY soon.

Love to be entered~

I would love to read the !9th Wife, I've heard good things about it. But from your list, my husband and I just started listening to The Alchemist on audio book...and we get to hear Jeremy Irons' sexy voice in the morning on our commute to work. I'm reading Run for a book club book, and it is good so far.

I would love to be entered into your contest.

Trish @ Love, Laughter, Insanity said...

Hey Bethany--I would love to be entered for this one (I feel a little sheepish and guilty since I won Belonging from you as well, but what the heck!). In terms of your question--I JUST got Septembers of Shiraz in the mail after ordering it upon your recommendation. Can't wait to read it!

the Dizzy said...

The Glass Castle, was one I had wanted to check out.

I also really wanted to read the 19th wife.... which makes this contest have a perfect timing!

I recognized many of the books on your list--I'd already read them or they were on my "to-read" list. After reading your review of the Farmworker's Daughter, I'm adding it to that ever-growing list and adding your site to my list of to-visit pages.
Thanks

I've read 8 of the books in your list. Of the ones I haven't I think I'm most looking forward to reading 'The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society', which is funny really since the name put me off for a while but the excellent blogger reviews of it have won me over!

I've posted about both of your giveaways here.

Hi,found you via BBAW, your site looks lovely. Of your list, I'm most attracted to the Barbara Kingsolver title as "Poisonwood Bible" is in my personal top ten, also the Tractor History title because I believe bravery in book titles should be rewarded!

You've got lots of books that are on my TBR list, but I'd have to say my #1 pick would be A History of Tractors in Ukranian.

Please enter me. I've also blogged about the contest here.

I just finished Matrimony last night. Loved it!

Michele said...

I've read The Kite Runner and thought it was very well done indeed. The Alchemist is in my TBR pile and boy, you know it's a large pile when an anniversary edition of the book is released and I still haven't read it!

I've put up a post about this contest on A Reader's Respite and also wanted to let all those who said they've been wanting to read The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society that I'm giving that book away this week!

Good luck to everyone!

Stephanie said...

I totally want to read Skunk. What's not to love about someone who likes skunks? :)

You've got a few others I want to read, but I'll leave it at that. ;)

I've read The Kite Runner and the Persepolis books. I found both of them moving. For a long time I resisted seeing the movie version of The Kite Runner because I didn't think it would be nearly as good as the book. I was wrong.
