A Giveaway!

Can you believe I hadn't yet owned anything by Jane Austen? Or that I haven't read Pride & Prejudice? I am slightly embarrassed to admit this since I have a degree in English, and well, it is practically basic reading in the literature world. Now that I think of it, I do recall Sense & Sensibility to be a required reading in one of my online courses. Did you put that together? Recall. Online course. Yeah, for me "distance learning" equaled "hardly learning."
Thanks again, Alexis for the beautiful book! I can't wait to bury my nose into the crisp, golden-edged pages.
While I have you here, aren't these just gorgeous? They are on my wish-list, and would be a lovely addition to my new book!
Now for you, my dear readers!
I have been thinking of you so for some time, and am delighted to say that I have finally put the pieces together for my first giveaway!

I found out about your blog through your sister Amber. I love Amber, she runs with me. Well, when it's warm anyway, we don't like the cold. I read at least a book or two a month and I would love one of these to keep track, right now I'm using an old grocery list in one book and a receipt in the other :)
I'm in - just saw your blog on your sis's blog and hopped over. I love it.
