How exciting that you have been blogging for 2 years. I shared your giveaway via Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. A book that released earlier this month that is on the top of my wish list is Lady Maybe by Julie Klassen. Thanks for hosting this giveaway and congratulations again on reaching 2 years. 🙂

Happy blogging anniversary! You are super generous with this giveaway! Thanks! I follow your blog by e-mail. On the top of my wish list is:

– Life Is Short (No Pun Intended): Love, Laughter, and Learning to Enjoy Every Moment by Jennifer Arnold and Bill Klein.

They have the television show, The Little Couple, on TLC. You can look it up at Amazon. They are “little people” who adopted 2 “little” kids from China and India. They have endured so much in their lives; yet are so upbeat, encouraging, and gracious. Jen is a doctor, and Bill owns his own store that sells pet things. They are so blessed, and I get a blessing from watching it. This book tells about their lives. It’s been on my wishlist since it came out recently. Thanks again for this chance.

Happy 2 year blogging anniversary! I love your anniversary giveaways and may have to “borrow” your idea for my blog next spring and my blogaversary. Didn’t get a celebration going this past year, but I’d love to put something together for 3 yrs. Anyway…a wish list book for me is Lady Maybe by Julie Klassen.

Congrats again and it has been fun getting to know you in the book blogging world.

Happy 2nd blogging anniversary!! I haven’t followed you for that long but I have been here for a while and very much enjoy it!
Picking only one book is impossible….lol!! You should see my want-to-read pile, it’s out of control 🙂 There have been a lot of great new releases that have come out recently and every one of them sounds terrific! And I have a ton of “favorite” authors 🙂
The one that sticks out is “Irish Meadows” by Susan Anne Mason. There are many, many more that I could list but the rules say only list one book, lol!!
I have shared this on Facebook & Twitter but couldn’t find how to share on Pinterest or I would do it there too! And I already follow your blog.
