Ramya!  Congratulations, your name was drawn for my copy of Bleachers by John Grisham!  I will be contacting you by email to get your info.

Thanks to everyone who commented, it means so much to have readers who care.  Please make sure to check back as I will have another contest up in the VERY near future:)

It’s time for a book giveaway! Education expert Hal W. Lanse is giving away a copy of his latest book, READ WELL, THINK WELL!

In order to win, here are the rules:

• You must comment below with your working email address so that we can contact you.
• If you blog about this contest, leave a comment, telling us where you are blogging about it and that gives you 2 entries!
• Contest starts today and ends on September 29. The winner will be announced on this blog on Sept. 30.

So, here’s another one of those duplicate books…shame on me, I know.  But, my disorganization is good for all of you because it means a chance for free books.

This is the hardcover version of this book – and this one I have read and loved it.  If you haven’t read it, or don’t know what it’s about, here’s the synopsis:

High school all-American Neely Crenshaw was probably the best quarterback ever to play for the legendary Messina Spartans.  Fifteen years have gone by since those glory days, and Neely has come home to Messina to bury Coach Eddie Rake, the man who molded the Spartans into and unbeatable football dynasty.

Now, as Coach Rake’s “boys” sit in the bleachers waiting for the dimming field lights to signal his passing, they replay the old games, relive the old glories, and try to decide once and for all whether they love Eddie Rake – or hate him.  For Neely Crenshaw, a man who must finally forgive his coach – and himself- before he can get on with his life, the stakes are especially high. 

How do you win, you ask?  Couldn’t be easier!

Leave a comment for 1 entry – please remember to leave contact information so I know how to get in touch with you.

Excerpt from the back of the book:

The Pink Room is flying silk and a canvas of lace.  It is a magic gleam and a twinkling eye.  It is playful glances, soft pecks upon the lips, and swirls of eye-catching smiles.  It is endless stretches of bed ruffles and flowing satin shets strewn across a candle-lit floor.  It is thick pillows, the coolness of moonlight, and giggle-strewn chatter in the mist of rose-silk petals.

But more than anything, The Pink Forest is about one woman wishing upon life for the courage to feel her enchanted self.  Caught in the gusts of emotion, her small draped figure lands on the tree of possibility where she become an amorous creature.  Glistening with intimate confessions, she blushes the earth and wanders into The Pink Forest.

 I have to be totally honest.  I really wasn’t sure if I was going to like this book.  But the author drew me in with her lyrical writing and descriptions that left little to the imagination, and I truly had a hard time putting this book down.  After all, it isn’t every day that you get to delve into the most personal and intimate confessions of a woman searching for her enchanted self. 

This book was able to evoke so many emotions in me as I traveled with her on her journey to find her enchanted self and the revelations she makes on the way.  Prepare yourself for a book that presses the boundaries of your imagination and sensual side to see what it might take to find and release your enchanted self, after all, who says your conscience ALWAYS has to be your guide.
