    Clear Your Shelf Giveaway Hop

    clear your shelf january
    Hosted by I am a Reader, Not a Writer. I love the Clear your Shelf Giveaway Hop Kathy hosts each year because it gives me a time to clear my shelves a bit, and share some great books with you!
    Mark’s mom gave us my FAVORITE series ever for Christmas – The Chronicles of Prydain. I’ve never owned the whole series, and she gave it to us in a nice boxed set to boot. 
    So that leaves me with some slightly worn copies of book 1, 2 and 5 in the series to give to you. YAY!  I’ve added a couple other books from my shelf that I think you’ll also enjoy. Enter on the rafflecopter below, and then hop to all the other blogs for more giveaways!
    Book 1: The Book of Three by Llyod Alexander
    Book 2: The Black Cauldron by Llyod Alexander
    Book 5: The High King by Lloyd Alexander
    Coyote Winds by Helen Sedwick – Read my Review

    Clear Your Shelf May
    I have so many books. SOOO many books!  I also have a very hard time getting rid of books. Thankfully I have been able to receive many books for review that I may never have otherwise picked up. I have found so many good books this way, but have also read some that I didn’t particularly care for. Then there are some that I read, enjoyed, but don’t feel the need to hand onto any longer. 
    I look forward to this hop hosted by Kathy at I am a Reader, Not a Writer since it gives me the chance to clear some space, and you the chance to win some books!  Right now, I need all the space I can get too. We only have 2 bookshelves, since the rest broke in our move. I have yet to get around to replacing them, and well – I have 18 boxes of books just hanging out in my basement. Not how I like to see my books. So I’m clearing my shelf, so I can pull a few more out.  Isn’t that nice of me?
    Did I get a little winded there? So sorry. Here is what ONE lucky reader will win from moi

    This is a review copy I was sent for free. I wanted to bad to delve into this book, but emotionally I couldn’t. It is strong from 2 very opposing sides. I hope whoever wins will be able to enjoy the historical content in this book, and see the view the author was trying to display in so dramatic a work.

    I enjoyed this book. I felt like I gained some insight into how I want my life to turn out, and what I need to do to go there. Now it’s time for someone else to map their best life!

    I read this book about a year ago. It was a very interesting read, and helps bring economics into your daily life, on a level most people can actually understand.  Read my full review.

    I enjoyed the premise of this novel, but there was just too much horse racing talk I didn’t get, and romance and drugs for me to enjoy.

    The Lake House
     by Marci Nault
    I want to like this book so bad! Review will be on the blog early next week, but here’s a quick inside view – New England Lake House, living around friends and family, love and heartache. 
    I’m giving this book up, because the love border lined on the not my kind of reading side. Which is too bad, because if it was just a bit cleaner, I would’ve loved this book so much.
    The Path of the Fallen
    by Dan O’Brien
    This is a BIG BOOK! Just so you know. But a fun YA novel that explores another version on life, death and the beyond. Read my full review.

    by Jasmine Winterson
    This tale was just too unbelievable for me, and since it was set in modern day America, it made it that much harder to connect and believe I was in the story. Read my review.

    THAT IS NOT ALL THOUGH!  The winner will also receive my very last Home Maid Simple branded Book Bag: sporting Home Maid Simple’s button and the phrase “Turning Your House Into A Home”

    OPEN to US and CAN residents.
