Book Giveaway Winners – 14 Cows for America, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, The Year The Swallows Came Early and The Graveyard Book

giveawaysWow, what a month of giveaways!  Normally, I announce giveaway winners on the respective thread of the book so as to avoid writing blog posts when I don’t need to but I thought announcing this many winners warranted a separate post.

First, many thanks  to everybody who entered and your enthusiasm in answering the questions that I put forth to enter.  Such fun to read.  These are great books and I’m thrilled to share them with you.

Book Cover:   The Guernsey Literary Pie

For The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows giveaway I enjoyed finding out if you had a book club or not and if so, what the name of it was.  Congratulations to these five lucky winners who will receive a copy of the book from the publisher Dial Press.

Book Cover:  The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman

My signed copy of the The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman was my post popular giveaway this month with more than 200 people tallying more than 1370 entries.  I LOVED reading the answers to the question:  If you lived in a graveyard who would you want to make sure was buried there?  I was oddly surprised that the majority said their grandfather.

Many of you wanted this signed book BADLY but there can only be one winner and it is . . .
