Did I say that?!?!
I am someone who believes you can never have too many books. But I am up to my eyeballs and have nowhere left to put them. I have bookcases in my living room, bedroom, den and upstairs and books are still double and triple stacked. While I have a pathological love for an overabundance of books, my practical side realizes that I really should weed some out.
Pant. Pant. Pant. I’m hyperventilating.
So after taking some deep breaths and a boatload of Xanax, I have decided to do some giveaways. Every week or so I will offer a few books, drawing a name from anyone who leaves a comment that week.
These are second hand books, but they are in good shape, read only once and FREE to the lucky winner. Yay!
So here are this week’s books:
The Alibi Club by Francine Mathews (reviewed 4/1/11)
I didn't love it, but maybe you can keep track of the action better than I could.
The Fate of Katherine Carr by Thomas H. Cook
Writer George Gates is haunted by the unsolved murder of his son. He becomes involved in the case of Katherine Carr, a woman who went missing years earlier and has never been found. Is her disappearance linked to his son’s death? An interesting novel about justice.
Missing by Karin Alvtegen
Sybilla is a 30-something woman living by her wits on the streets of Stockholm, occasionally fleecing a businessman out of a meal and a hotel room. When one of her marks is murdered, she goes on the run and tries to prove her innocence. The novel goes back and forth in time, telling the story of how and why she chose the life she leads.
Birth Marks by Sarah Dunant
Hannah Wolfe is a London based private investigator. She is asked to find a missing ballet dancer who is later found, pregnant, drowned in the Thames. She continues to follow the case, not believing the woman was a suicide. Written in 1993, the book's premise is dated by current science, primarily DNA testing. But it is still a tolerable mystery.
Leave a comment from now until Friday, April 8 and you will be entered in the drawing. Good luck!
